General Discussion / Power supply

« on: October 09, 2015, 12:35:07 pm »

Just bought one of these off Amazon:

Seems like a good price with a decent amount of power and not too big . Just need to see how long it lasts. Hopefully I can use it to keep my iPad working at the same time.

General Discussion / ARF Board

« on: October 09, 2015, 12:25:20 pm »

Hi,

Is there a 'simple' way of seeing if the ARF board is connected and working as it should? Sorry if this has been covered before but I could not find anything..

General Discussion / Switching off

« on: October 09, 2015, 12:14:45 pm »

Is there a 'safe' way to switch off the unit rather than just unplugging the power? I have another Pi connected to my TV and it always 'complains' if I just pull the power and sometime even corrupts the OS?

General Discussion / Newbie problem with wifi and Skydemon..

« on: October 07, 2015, 05:14:09 pm »

HI, My first attempt... well second actually

I have everything connected (hopefully correctly)
Software installed and the system booted and license code loaded ..

I can connect to the wifi as long as I am within about 1 foot of my Pi but not further?

The CollisionAware app on my ipad connects but all I see is a blank screen with the title Pilot31 CollisionAware and single 'switch' and a message saying connected? Should I see more?

If I boot up SkyDemon and select go flying with the FLARM option I get the message "Failed to establish a connection with the Butterfly Connect unit"??

All suggestions welcome, hopefully it's something silly which I am doing..

Thanks
Carl
