APM is for planes and copters so loading the code and using without modification means it will not do anything you wish correctly.

Whilst APM can be has the power to be used with many vehicles (fixed wing, helicopter, quadrotor, Osprey VTOL, car, boat have been done so far) only two are a mature package as of yet. Ground vehicles is being covered by James Goppert ArduPilotOne but I am unsure of it development stage although it has been shown to work. As for sailing I only know one of one such example, Harold Molle. Harold's boat does sonar depth mapping all by itself but this is with huge amounts of modification as well as multiple reincarnations.

I suggest you try James Goppert's APO code but you will need to modifiy it for your own circumstances as this is pretty untested territory.

Thank you for your answer! How ArduPilotMega change direction of a plane in the air? Only with rudder? Or with Ailerons and Elevators?

I have trouble to download files via SVN. I have installed a lot of program special for that, but without succes. When I try to download Ardupilotone comes message: "Server sent unexpected return value (405 Method Not Allowed) in response to"!

Maybe someone knows what I`am doing wrong? I`m using tortoiseSVN, ULR of repository: this adress ant this one. 

Thank you for your support.
