OK, so I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1, and I just installed this app. I have hired Matt of the Redwood Flyers to complete my Scorpion 650. I already have a Hobby King KK2.0 controller, but I keep coming back to this for autonomous flight.What I need to know is what hardware is needed to make this setup work? And most importantly, will it work with a Y-6 setup? I, of course, will want full telemetry. Also full FPV with monitor(s) and goggles, and the ability to record to my laptop. If this setup won't work with my Y-6 Scorpion, I'll have to start looking at other multirotor options. So my questions, in order, are these... 1) Will this work with a Y-6 motor setup? 2) What hardware do I need to get (controller, GPS, etc.)? 3) If this doesn't work with my Scorpion, what is the current FPV multirotor setup of choice?
Yes, the Droidplanner works with a Y6 setup. Look here: 3dD Robotics own Y6: https://store.3drobotics.com/products/3dr-rtf-y6-2014 The "Pixhawk" controller (used in above 3D Robotics Y6): https://store.3drobotics.com/products/3dr-pixhawk The Pixhawk is 3D Robotics next generation controller after the APM.

Any APM 2.5 or 2.6 will work, only difference is where the compass is. But since it is open source any of the knock offs will work the same. Pixhawk has no advantage right now, firmware is basically the same. I was planning on getting the UHF telemetry radio set so it won't interfere with my 900 FPV. Get an OTG adapter for your tablet and plug telemetry radio right in.
This is it, if you trust HK stuff. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/..._flight_controller_usb_gyro_acc_mag_baro.html Will need a GPS too.
I have this adapter... If I'm using my tablet to program/fly my Scorpion, can I also use it to simultaneously record the FPV stream?
