The plan was to add following things:

1 x 7inch LCD
1 x 5.8Ghz video receiver.
SKP or Helical antenna for strong reception
1 x SD DVR (will be soon available for sale at quadkopters Wink )
1 x Voltage display currently not added.

And some extra space to carry lipos in field.

Started with adding some thick wood at the edge for the support of the platform plywood

 Grin Grin Easy to carry its bit heavy though Head Scratching Head Scratching

Next step:

2. Adding the voltage display.

Human mind is like a parachute, works when open



hi,

Grt looking GCS, but big and heavy.

I made from a plastic box available and is compact for rs. 50.

you can compact the size just 1" or 2 " bigger than the screen .

ALso using 3mm ply will make it light.
