Yay I got my APM 2 delivered yesterday. Thanks to all of you who have been working hard to deliver this beautiful product.
What is unclear to me at the moment is:
- how to set APM 2 into CLI mode (switch is gone?)
- how far is the firmware compatible with APM 2?
- Is the mission planner working with APM 2 properly (downloading logs seems to be impossible without cli mode) ?
Cheers,

The current planner supports the APM 2 and the software seems to run on it. I am not sure if it fully leverages the hardware capabilities of the APM 2 board yet, but at the moment you get at least an APM 1 level capability out of it.
Downloading logs: go to terminal and press your Enter key three times to access CLI mode and download logs just like before.

Permalink Reply by Richard on February 23, 2012 at 6:44am I have been trying to pre-order the Ardupilot Mega V2 for a while, but it seems unable to accept the pre-order, is there anyway i can do this to ensure I recieve one form the next batch?
Cheers

Preorders will open again in about a week.

Clearly they have no more... so aren't shipping any... so there's no updates.
