[Canberrauav] [Makers] Quadcopter Workshop 2.0 - Update Stephen Dade stephen_dade at hotmail.com Wed Jun 26 10:10:07 UTC 2013 Hi everyone, There has been a small change of plans with the workshop. We will now be using the PX4 autopilot (now that I have confirmed its availability) running the Arducopter 3.0 software. The cost of the workshop will not change as a result of this. To any interstate lurkers on the MHV list: I'm open to the idea of running this workshop in other cities/states if there's enough interest.
