Once the firmware has all the basic features, it would be great to provide access to it via JavaScript. People could upload/store scripts on the drone, and run them via the HTML UI. We may even be able to provide a little (CodeMirror based) editor for quick scripting.
The scripting environment should be powerful enough to program things like GPS based applications.
One approach to this may be to just bundle node.js, and provide a library for talking to the go firmware (via IPC of some kind). This would be cool because it would allow people to also create additional networking services.

Alternatively we can just embed v8.
