The videos are really cool! Just one question... Did you have to do a lot of adjustment for the synthetic and reality to match? Except fr maybe the FOV and the angle in the synthetic view. I am particularly interested in the timing (Latency etc.). Did the two appear similarly in real time during flight? I am curious to know what hardware you use. A newer version of the onboard hardware i am working on is currently out for PCB fabrication. This UAV business is so exciting! ;-) -- Cheers! kitts _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
