Arc-Team's UAVP: testing the NAZA dji

Hi all,
the "Arc-Team Air Force" acquires a new x-copter. After the:

1. Wolferl UAVP
2. Rolf R Bakke Multicopter from KKmulticopter.kr
3. Rolf R Bakke Multicopter from HobbyKing (work in progress)

we bought a NAZA dji. It is not a Open Hardware project, but a low cost solution to obtain aerial pictures. This drone has a perfect implementation of the GPS module and a revolutionary way of flight; it offers three types of control modes:

1. Manual (M) = manual free flight
2. Attitude (A) = free flight with altitude lock and high attitude stabilize
3. GPS = free flight with hold final position

The movie below show how the GPS works to hold the position till the remote control gives new moving command.

We didn't try yet the RTH (Return To Home); as soon as possible i will upload a new movie about it.
