thanks for the share!!

wanted to do it sooner but it skipped my mind... exams!

Dude its a great contest.

What swarm software do you guys recommend?

i dont think there is  a fully end to end software ready...ull have to develop a existing one further...i saw a guy do it with arduplane-ardupilot in a excellent manner...

also just in case anyone is interested in actually making one..
i think the airplane design by zipline( blood delivery) is the best... their latest design ..not the old one... just perfect

Is there a link to more info on this guy's project?

Just FYI the contest also has a forum

http://indianairforce.nic.in/meharbaba/forum

i saw a video on the official ardupilot website.. on 3 quads being assigned missions through one controller...
there are more experienced members on this forum..sadly they dont wanna contribute... otherwise someone from rci could participate .. in phase 1 at least!

Any ideas why not?

most maybe busy... maybe others  are doing it on their own... who knows.
