Get her airborne first.
The warm fuzziness comes instantly ... if you treated her well.

There hasn't been much demand from Mac users so far. Most of them use Windoze, Linux or Android.
I have to confess that most of my machines run something else than SJ's heritage.

btw: there's a Mac version of the original QGroundControl:
https://github.com/mavlink/qgroundcontrol/downloads

Did you take this one for your port?

Ron,
thanks for compiling this on a MAC.
But, why you don't use the source, from our download site?
Everybody can do his own version, no problem.
But why do we need different base qgroundcontrol versions?

Thanks for the time and work you put into this, Ron - highly appriciated.
I'll try your precompiled version on a friend's Mac next week. I hope some other Apple users can/will confirm it's working for them.

Hi Ron,

I'll download the version you created for sure, although I probably won't take my 27" imac to the field.
What parts from Peters development are needed for you to maintain this mac version?. We can sure make it easy with granting upload access for you. Only Norbert needs to increase the allowed upload size.

Or if preferred a link to the mac version on your site.

ps. I don't think Peter is taking it the wrong way, I fur sure aren't. But different developers can have different views. But as it is a community project with one mutual goal, I tend to think that those differences can be solved easily.

Ron,
please don't get me wrong.

But, the Project I uploaded should work with qmake.
I need to run the qmake also on windows, to generate the Project files.
On Linux, we can use the QT Creator, and use the qmake.
It should also run on MAC.
If that doesn't work, we should find out, whats going wrong.
If we have a stable qgroundcontrol, we should go to the next step, and update to the current version.

Also the support is very difficult, if we have different versions out.
We have already enough versions out.

Again Ron,
please don't get me wrong. I'm happy, to have a talented guy on board.
But we should talking about the "roadmap" or next targets.
And work together on a clear target.

I downloaded the precompiled file and unzipped but I dont see an app and the installer package in the folder gives an error.
