At the Toy Fair we demonstrated our new Startkit for indoor flying with small Quadkopter or drones. The idea is to help more people get more enthusiastic aboút the flying and help people to build good missions for a flight. The system can be used in clubs or by individuals to train and make fun. It could potentially be used as a professional tracking system.
One important part is the ability to track the drone on screen while it is flying. The ability always to see where the drone is in XY and also an intuitive z marker. If you build a simple mission to bang a set of balloons on screen then you need to know all 3 dimensions of your real flight - and to keep an eye on both the screen and the drone, if not listening to the associated sound. It is a bit difficult but also fun.
The starterkit has the important feature where it streams all position data on a serial port or on any TCP/IP port. The idea is to help you build your own system using the position information.
The starter kit is available in the shop - it can also be enlarged with a large drone sender for more heavy weight drones with up to 15 m distance measurements.
