Who & Why

Hi my name is Robert known here and there as JimB40. For over twenty five years of my professional life I've been doing lot of things. Currently I do photohraph. My spare time I spend on traveling, guitar playing, scootering, drone flying and of course developing FM2M. Since summer 2021 I'm also Project Steering Committee member and active developer of open-source radio firmware EdgeTX.

In 2019 I've drown into the FPV world. I had some experience with RC cars racing before but getting airborne was whole different story. Process was equally exciting and painful. You know those crashes and fly-aways (flying to the moon). Anyway after short period I've discovered that I need some tools to make things easier. That's how idea of FM2M was born.

I love good UI and UX. Huge amount of time I do spend testing if user experience is easy and seamless.

During last years FM2M ToolBox proved to be valuable tool helping me with everyday bench work and on-field aircraft preparation. Hope you'll also find FM2M Tools valuable.

Cheers and happy flying

Thank you

FM2M wouldn't be possible without below mentioned.

What comes out depends on what comes in.

Knowledge spreaders

Joshua Bardwell FPV Know It All

If you don't know Josh it might be you've slept under rock. Lots of tutorials and huge knowledge about technical aspects of drone flying. Throttle limiter was one among many things I've discovered watching his movies.

Lee Schofield Painless360

Lee covers in his channel wide range of RC flying knowledge. His tutorials about OpenTX helped me a lot to understand how powerful tool it is.

Mark Spatz UAV Tech

If your quad is dancing erratically it's highest time have sneak peak into blackbox logs. The best address to get some knowledge about quad's tune or to get tuned.

Nate Payne Mr. Shutterbug

Shutterbug is one of my favourites birds and it is Nate who built it first. Showing me that AUW is more important than anything else. Racer and cheerful guy.

Patrick J. Clark Project Mockingbird

If you fly or race Tiny whoops you surely know who is he. When I get gazilon time question "Why you fly in Angle mode" my answer is always the same. "Check Project Mockingbird, then you will know why"

Oscar Liang oscarliang.com

Developers

Wonderful team of EdgeTX

I'm officially part of it as UX/UI dev and Project Steering Comittee team member. Lots of work in open minded and positive team, always gives me a boost.

All guys behind development of OpenTX

Well that's obvious. If there was no OpenTX - FM2M and EdgeTX wouldn't exist.

Guido ter Horst Just Fly Solutions

His broad knowledge he shares on RCgroups.com about LUA scripts helped me a lot to make first steps. Big kudos for dynamic loading that makes such a big script work.

Tim Eckel iNavFLight LuaTelemetry

Author of wonderful LUA App for iNav pilots. If you fly iNav this the ultimate tool to use.

Jesper Frickmann SoarOTX

Jesper is all about RC sailplane piloting. Nevertheless he also is brilliant EdgeTX and LUA application developer. We may argue sometime but definitely knowlegde flows forth and back.

Flying buddies (last but not least)

Guys from whoops racing league Whoop of Poland

Racing micro quads league. Well no chance with youngsters but doing quite well in 40+ category. This hobby is also about social engagement so chit-chats and meetings are always refresher.

Tommy & Michael

Countless times after crashing I had this emotion state "This it the end. My friend. No more money burning". Its them who helped me overcome technical problems and get back on the track.
