Topic: Buy Testing Solos for Matt

Proposal type: Hardware [X ] , Software [ ] , Other [ ]

Description: Matt has been extensively testing master-on-Solo on his own hardware, which has cost him some airframes.

I propose ArduPilot purchase 3 testing airframes for Matt to ensure the master-on-Solo project proceeds.

Airframes are currently available from BestBuy here: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/3dr-solo-drone-black/5351035.p?skuId=5351035 for US$285 each

Planned amount $$ (USD): <US$1000

Estimated time for completion: 1 week

Thanks for the proposal, Peter. It looks like this one got support yet slipped through the cracks.

It’s been a long time and some elements of this proposal might be considered somewhat expired. Yet the funding committee discussed this and has agreed to approve to the extent below.

This is approved for one solo for Matt, or $300, funding via Paypal or as a gift certificate.

Thanks Matt for all your past and current, very significant, contributions!

Thank you all! I’d forgotten about this so it was a pleasant surprise.
