Mission planner and APM planner 2.0

Could anyone explain the difference in the mission planner and APM planner 2.0?
Thanks,
Don

**Moved out of Copter/General forum and into Mission Planner forum. There is also an APM Planner 2.0 forum.

Hi Don,

Mission Planner is what most of us are used to, however APM Planner 2.0 is the first step to a common solution for mission planning across Windows, Mac, and Linux. It uses some/much of the base from QGroundControl with the familiar aesthetics of Mission Planner.
