MAVPilot has been released to the App Store. This is a “Ground Control Station for your Pocket”. Its target audience is iPhone users. Pilots often fly unaccompanied and this can make it difficult to use a laptop at the same time. This is more so when a pilot is using a semi-auto mode like Alt-Hold. Using your iPhone instead is a great way to keep focused on the MAV and still have all the useful information in reach. With inbuilt text-to-speech support your iPhone will let you know instantly the status and if anything starts to go wrong.
MAVPilot incorporates the FIND MY DRONE feature.

Hi does mavpilot has any future to enable video recording to iphone or optional to usb? What is the default video recording destination?
Thanks
I’d like to add video monitor in future. Also with an improved HUD as an overlay would also be cool.
Hi, purchased Mac pilot on App Store and just wondering what I am doing wrong? Qgroundcontrol works as Mav link with my ardrone 2.0. Settings are 192.168.1.2 on port 5551.

I want to buy the application MAVPILOT to install it on my ipod touch 4, but when I try to buy it, I can’t because my ipod doesn’t have the IOS 7 that I can’t install on this generation of Ipod. What could I do?
Sorry. It only works with iOS7+
