I thought the match head/resistor solution was ingenious.

For someone with nearly zero knowledge of RC aircraft related FPV, I thought that the article and video were spectacular.

I'd love to see what Gusty comes up with.

I am interested in this too ;D An APM with RTL programmed in would be quite necessary in India. Or your craft will be gone the second it hits the ground :P A superpowerful 433MHz telemetry downlink would be awesome.. A GSM tracker can also be helpful.. But first I just need to get a job to pay for it though :P
