With luck the OpenIPC cameras that are starting to come on the market will find traction and the entire hardware stack will run on open source firmware.

Unfortunately these kernels look very old:

- https://github.com/OpenIPC/linux/tree/ingenic-t31: v3.10.14

- https://github.com/OpenIPC/linux/tree/ingenic-t40: v4.4.94

etc.

That's the problem with vendors forking the kernel: downstream users are often left with unmaintained branches that will accumulate CVEs over time...


That'll be really nice, but I'm worried that DJI has a stranglehold on the camera market. Their stuff just works, gives you video over 20+ km without any tuning, and looks amazing. Open hardware has a long way to go to do that, but let's hope they pull off an ELRS.


This is so cool; LFTI!
