  1. Automatic camera trigger:
  1.1 You can use the switch and WP event simultaneously. So you can also manually trigger the camera if you use the Waypoint-Event Channel
  1.2 Photo-triggering in distance intervals. In the FC-Settings you can set a distance interval for Phototriggers. As example, the MK could take all 10m a picture on manual flight. Indipendant on the flying speed. So you can photograph the field, or track, without planning it by waypoints.
  1.3 WP-event: the flashing pattern will be executed at least 1 complete pattern
  
  2. Logging
  2.1 The KopterTool itself can now also create GPX log files (only in the OSD window) -> Additional Security
  2.2 Changed the name of the log files on the SD card (date in the name of the log file eg 12112201.GPX for the first flight on 22/11/2012).
  2.3 Changing the order of log entries and added some more data points <FC_SPI_ErrorCounter> <Speak>
  2.4 Fix: I2C error in the log were always zero
  2.5 Starting log file without GPS-FIX (but GPS date must be available)
  2.6 bugfix: log was stopped when loosing the GPS-Fix
  2.7 write logfile 2,5seconds longer after switching off the motors
  2.8 write the SD-FAT when an Error accures
  
  3. Jeti
  Extended-Jeti protocol implemented (for example, the new Jeti transmitter DC16 etc)
  MikroKopter-Messages are transmitted via the morse-codes. In the new Jeti-Transmitters a voice-file can be assigned to each code.
  For old transmitters the morse-codes can be deactivated via the KopterTool.
  
  4. Waypoint flights
  4.1 Display WP x / y in the HoTT telemetry
  4.2 Spontaneous acceleration in WP-flight. So the waypoint flight is faster and more accurate. Flights with 12-15m/s are now possible
  4.3 BugFix: If direction is fixed (eg 180 °) and yawed manually, then the next time the WP angle only set when the setpoint changes
  
  5. SD card access via KopterTool
  5.1 Per KopterTool you can then download the log files - even via a radio link.
  5.2 SETTINGS.INI can be changed with the KopterTool without removing the SD card
  5.3 We will add a "Simple GPX-Viever" to the KopterTool-Package later.
  
  6. Camera-angle
  The camera-angle can be moved via a stick with neutral position. The user just controls UP/Down instead of the absolut angle.
  Very slow movements are possible with that feature.
  
  7. misc
  7.1 RC-Lost at starting point (within 40m and 15m altitude) will not trigger the failsafe-function when the Gas stick was down for 1,5sec before failsafe accured
  the MK was propably manually landed in that case and the user switched off the transmitter). The MK switches to MIN-Gas instead.
  7.2 Fix: in PH with slow yawing the MK sometimes flew in large circles
  7.3 HoTT:Text-Menu "Speak All" removed. This can be selected in the KopterTool now.
  7.4 KopterTool: Warning if a setting is changed, but not transmitted to the MK
  7.5 Bugfix: the message of defective Gyros was too short
