I'm currently working on a DIY Laptop, that can also controll a drone. I found recievers for the video signal, but i have no idea how to controll the drone from my PC, like in a Video Game. Does anyone know what i would need for that? Software and Hardware wise.
The module needs 5V and has an UART interface. Also note the tx module is a transmitter, but also a receiver - It receives telemetry data like drone position, altitude.
I don't know if there is a software for PC available that can control the drone directly, like in a game. Check this page for software that is used to plan gps waypoints for drones:
