* Intuitive Piloting HUD
* Customized Wi-Fi settings including MAC filtering, WPA2 and hidden SSID
* Input Device Deadzone / Sensitivity tuning

* Minidrone including Mambo+MiniCam support
* Mambo accessories (claw + gun) support
* Full Parrot Disco support including Flight Plan
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTING TO YOUR MAMBO+MINICAM w/ Flypad:
Start AR.Pro 3 and stay in the Discovery activity.
Power on your Flypad and wait for its light to go solid green.
If you go into the AR.Pro 3 Settings activity, you’ll find a header for managing the flypad axes and button mappings.
Return to (or stay in the Discovery activity).
Power on your Mambo+MiniCam
AR.Pro 3 may prompt you asking if you wish to connect to the Mambo via Bluetooth. Answer NO.
After 30-60 seconds the Mambo’s Wi-Fi SSID will show up in your Wi-Fi network list pulldown.
Select the Mambo Wi-Fi network from the list once it appears.
Now back at the Discovery activity, wait 15-30 seconds for AR.Pro 3 to connect to your Mambo’s Wi-Fi.
Once connected (Settings gears no longer turning) you can enter AR.Pro 3’s Piloting activity.
If the video stream doesn’t show immediately (it’s black) it is because the MiniCam went into low power mode.
Launch / Takeoff and you’ll find the video stream starts up (if it is not already visible).
I’ll be working on button / axes mappings when the Flypad is connected directly to the Mambo in the coming weeks. Documentation updates are also underway.
AR.Pro 3 will never offer in-app purchases. Once you have purchased AR.Pro 3 you will benefit from all future enhancements without ever having to buy any additional (addon) features / functions.
