Hi!

Information about parameters and values in pisky.txt file are required. For exmample, what is the meaning of "LORA_Mode" setting?

Please, add detailed instructions on README.md file

Thanks for that link.

In my opinion documentation of PiInTheSky kit is not friendly. In the way the documentation is written, it can only be understood by those who already understand all the concepts and know how to assemble and configure the kit.

Will be cool add some kind of baby steps in a lot of concepts, for example to build antennas.

Your experience is noted but is the opposite of what we have been told by others.

High altitude ballooning is a wide-ranging subject and is not for everyone.  We refer all purchasers to the introductory guide (which I also wrote) here - http://www.daveakerman.com/?p=1732. You mentioned assembly, which is shown step-by-step in the manual.  You mention configuration which, again, is covered in the manual.

For the antenna, the manual seems to be missing a link to this video showing how to make one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xemKyV1H6Xs
