I am using a module soldered and produced by Rad Industries (hey, that is me! Mama, I am on the internet!) but using other´s guy which is much clever than me, code.

What does it do? I can see in my radio screen:

-How much battery is left.
-How fast is the battery running out.
-What is the temperature inside of the model.
-Second sensor for checking the temperature in the motor or in any other specific part, like the smoke generator, or if a boat, the water.
-Which are the GPS coordinates of the model.
-A compass to see where is it currently heading. (N,S,W,E and the grades.)
-How fast is it running, flying or sailing, in kilometers, miles and knots.
-If it flyes, how high is it flying, and how fast is it climbing.

Overkill for our tanks, maybe. But the hell of a fun. I created the module for doing long range FPV sailing with a scratchbuild boat, in a big lake here.


Holy cow that’s awesome. Have you thought about controlling via 4g ?
