Hello:
Anybody use the kestrel autopilot of procerus UAV? Because I´m going to instal it in a small UAV and I want to know experiences of the people with it.

I´m interested in know experiences with the piccolo 2 uav autopilot of Cloudcap tech.
Thanks for all.

Yeah Kestrel is a great product. What are you looking for?

Hey Jesus,
Yeh, I've just so happened to mess with both Kestrel and Picollo-LT APs this past year. I just finished converting one of our UAVs (originally both Kestrel APs) to a Picollo AP. Kestrel is obviously smaller and lighter, and for lighter aircraft, that might be a key factor. I like the fact that Picollo has GPS built into it's enclosure. So far so good but to be totally honest, and this is my opinion only, the Kestrel ground station software is a bit more intuitive as compared to Picollo's...
