Ground Station question

Would an old laptop running Linux work as a ground station so I wouldn’t have to buy another pi?

oryan2,

Curious,
Did you make a laptop work for groundstation?
Thanks

Sort of. My setup uses a Pi4b and a laptop connected to the Pi via USB or WiFi, can’t remember which. It’s been a while since I did a range test with that setup. Kind of put my drone project on hold quite a while ago.
