Intro

Would it not be great to have your small UAS in your backpack, throw it in the air and monitor and even adjust the flight via a small device in you pocket? If you think this would be awesome, read on, since that is what this page is all about. It is the first attempt and will not be about iPad, Android Phones, Amazon Kindles or the likes as a ground station. For this we have other wiki pages. No, we will use a thrusted solution; A Gumstix with Linux on it.
