I'm intrigued, I guess you'd say, by the ground station setup - but I'm actually having trouble finding out what exactly it does, how it works, etc.
Please let me know if this is correct, in very general terms...
Using special app with Google map view, you can plot a course (go to this position, at this elevation, then go to this position at this elevation, etc) - then you transfer this course/route/plan to the Phantom via bluetooth.
You then launch the Phantom as normal with the normal transmitter, hit "go" or something on the app on the ipad, and watch it go...
After the mission, you retake control with the normal transmitter to land.
During the flight, you do not need any direct control of the Phantom from either the app or the normal transmitter.
Is the app used for anything during flight? I'm guessing not if it's a bluetooth connection.
Is this close? If so, I'm IN! Are there issues with trying to set this up on a P2 with Immersion 600mw vtx and iosd?
