I agree that will make for a compelling demonstration. And is reasonable and almost trivial were it not for the fact that a critical engineer (Justin) is unwilling to work without pay. I have done this GCS work on my own time and dime, and I’m very pleased with where it is. It’s really a cool ground control system. But I’m really not in a position to force employees to work without pay. So, if you are truly interested in having this demo as described below for your potential customers/investors, it will require you to pay existing invoices and setup a new contract - doesn’t have to be a long term affair - a few weeks is probably all you need to setup this demonstration. We can then work together to put you in a position to have a very compelling demonstration of your capabilities. For this demonstration to be truly useful, you really want a physically accurate simulation. It will be very effective tool for you going forward, as you can explore different vehicle configurations and parameters for engine capacity, battery capacity, motor parameters, and propulsion. If not, it’s about time for us tack away and pursue a different approach. Let me know, Dan On Jun 12, 2015, at 12:23 PM, Allen Bishop wrote: Dan: In addition to my previous email and in response to your most recent correspondence this morning, please review the following. A demo of the GCS requires a connection to the Pixhawk so that a full feature operation is presented with live data. This includes - at a minimum: 1. Telemetry data from the aircraft (Pixhawk A/P) into the GCS reporting in real-time via the RF telemetry link. (Not a USB cable) 2. The minimum flight data from the Pixhawk displaying in real-time: altitude, air speed, artificial horizon bank, dive and climb angles and compass heading with air speed displayed on the left and altitude on the right of the horizon. 3. Map display with the local "Home Position" displayed from a GPS signal of at least 6 satellites (GPS Status display). Map must allow zoom in and zoom out with the vehicle always centered on the map. 4. A separate window for video image to be displayed from the Pilots FPV camera 5. A separate window to display aircraft propulsion telemetry from the 6 outboard rotors and two central rotors. Given that we do not have telemetry reporting ESCs at this time, the displays should be driven with random input to verify that the widgets are functional. (RPM and Temperature) 6. A separate window to display the simulator/visualizer. 7. There is a significant menu difference between last week's "video" and the latest "image" of the GCS and specifically the menu structure. The "video" has the appropriate SETUP, PLAN, FLY and ANALYZE buttons which allow the creation of a WAYPOINT flight plan with the requisite data elements of in-route altitude, commands available once aircraft reaches a waypoint (hover, circle (with adjustable radius), drop payload, continue, etc.) and interlinking lines for a visual image of the flight path. The way point icons (widgits) should also show the differences between a waypoint that is getting a payload delivery/drop vs those that are not. 8. The created and saved flight plan in item 7 should be "flown" in the visualizer to demonstrate the linkage between the GCS and Simulator/Visualizer. If it isn't clear from previous correspondence, the Pixhawk running on the Hummingbird I is also required. My earlier emails have offered the Hummingbird I for testing, setup and demo in our test bay along with the GETAC laptop. I know you feel that is a wasted effort but I have paid for that development (by your own admission) and I insist on its delivery OR you can subtract the amount I have paid for that element of the project.

One final item I need confirmation on. Since the core of both the Pixhawk autopilot (DIY Drones - aka 3D Robotics) and the GCS (Q-Ground Control) are derived from Open Source software, I need a statement from Syzygyx that legally assures Reference Technologies, Inc. that it has the legal authority to use that source code following Syzygyx's modification, recompile, and Reference Technologies' use of it for commercial purposes under the Reference Technologies name, without the requirement of re-posting the derivative code back into the open source cloud, and without any pecuniary liability on Reference Technologies' part. This work product represents intellectual property. You did confirm this in our original discussions but I need it documented. Given the above interdependencies between the Auto Pilot (Pixhawk), GCS and Simulator/Visualizer, I feel it only makes sense to accomplish the final demonstration as an integrated and functioning solution. Essentially, the same level of integration and functionality we would have enjoyed at the AUVSI convention as well as the benefit of presentation to several prospective clients and distributors since returning from the convention.
