The next generation of quadcopters with ground stations and
telemetry
A new year begins and it is time to showcase the next generation
of consumer gadgets. This year, CES's biggest draws is 4K ultra hi-definition TV
and drones. Yes quadcopters, hexacopters and planes!
CES is expecting 150,000 attendees to the Las Vegas region, including more than
35,000 international visitors.
More than 3,500 firms will exhibit new electronics at this years' International
Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, among them are iUAS Walkera and DJI.
Walkera who started the first commercially available 6-axis gyro quad craze back
in 2011 called the QR Ladybird, will unveil it's latest quadcopter Dronecode X,
(name yet to be determined) and at the same time DJI will unveil it's highly
anticipated Inspire 1. Both looking relative similar in design, but
different in it's own ways.

Linux Foundation dronecode.org projects aka APM copter. It will have
the core functionality such as follow-me, gps waypoint autonomous flight, return
