Re: How would I interface a flash drive to the RC?

Actually, we (Cross the road electronics) have a device that will allow reading and writing to/from an SD card or USB thumb drive. Powered by the same technology in USB-Chicklet, it interfaces to the SD/USB device and provides a gateway to serial rs232 port (program port) on the RC. Not only will you be able to log data into FAT32 files, but will also be able to script autonomous and PID gain control. The script can be written on any laptop with a card reader or USB port. The device is called Chicken-AID (Autonomous Interface Device). Chicken-AID will require an RC driver similar to the camera but no where near as complicated.
