No nickin' - all custom.

Most of the microcontroller code was written by Robert Estelle (the  
guy in the video); if I recall some of it was done by Greg Hartl,  
another student, but most of it was coded by Robert. Logan Snow, I  
think, did most of the custom board layouts, and Toan Ho did most of  
the construction.

Robert's interned for Insitu, which makes UAV's. He's going to go work  
for them after he graduates. Well, graduation was yesterday, so he's  
on his way to work for them now.

Some of Robert's code is on the UAVs that were used in the rescuing  
the hostage from the Somalia pirates:
