Thanks again toall the devs, just come back from a roadtrip holiday with our SteadiDrone QU4D and H6X, flying 2.7, and no issues at all. Just loaded 2.7.1 onto our big SteadiDrone EI8HT and test lifted 8kg, flies perfect :)
Will post some videos and images soon.

Alex, you need to load the firmware before connecting. Just click on the vehicle type you want in the firmware screen.

I have made the first trials and it appears that if i arm the motors and i do not move the sticks for around 25 seconds the motors will disarm automatically. Is this a new safety feature installed or i have some issues ?

Yes it is. That's a safety feature active since version 2.2 or so.

Yesterday night i've made a first flight with the default parameters, no wind. In stable mode it is working ok, in Loiter mode it is moving left/right , forward/backward also from time to time (at 3 sec aprox) it is shaking, like an over correction.I've attached all the log files from the flight. Assigning CH6_LOITER_KP to a knob could help me to improve the behaviour ?
