    The Youtube video does a great job of explaining the problem being solved, and how he went about solving it. Pretty incredible that a non programmer was able to whip this up in ~8 …

    I’m honestly kind of amazed that more people aren’t seeing the value, because my experience has been almost the opposite of what you’re describing. I agree with a lot of your insti…

    The awesome "What's your problem" postcast had an episode with the CEO of this company recently which I really enjoyed: https://www.pushkin.fm/podcasts/whats-your-problem/using-sou…

    Pretty sure this comes with it's own standalone DJI remote (which is really just running android underneath). No need to sideload or connect to your phone in any way.
