Module Installation

The following installation directions apply to the less expensive Module.
It comes with the Communications (Com) cable with a plug at both ends and a power cable with a plug at one end and
bare wires at the other end. Belly connection description is
I had to modify the Com plug by filing down a ridge on the existing plug. It also comes with the antenna.

Software Installation

There are three versions of the Android GCS and they have different capabilities. Here are the three versions:
1. We'll call this the "old version":
2. And the "new version". This is posted on the ZeroUAV site:
(3/18/2014)
They are different. The latest version does NOT contain all the function of the old version. We are currently testing the
differences ... be patient, or if you can, test and report back to me for inclusion.

Once downloaded and uncompressed you'll need to move the AFK file to the SD card on the phone/tablet. In order to
install it locally I needed to download another Application "AppInstaller by FunTrigger" from the Play Store. Start
AppInstaller, find SD card and install the AFK file.
The GCS App will have the name Zero-GCS.
