Hello, I've got a problem with APM and Raptor 50 heli
I trying to set up APM on Raptor 50 with Glow engine. I connect my JR RC control to APM next variant:
RC APM
rx in out
1 trotle(pitch) ----> 3 3
2 ailer ----> 1 1
3 elevator ----> 2 2
4 rudder ----> 4 4
my transmitter sets up in "airoplane mode"
The essence of the problem: I don't understand how set up the swash plate. On helicopter installed 90 degrees swash plate
I tried different variants of degrees setup. For example:
servo1 90 (aileron??)
servo2 0 (elevator??)
servo3 180 (pitch??)
ailerons works normal, but elevator and pitch mix some strange.
please help me....
p.s. Sorry for bad English

I now have a working example of H1 heli mode in my clone.
http://code.google.com/r/robertlefebvre-wip-h1/source/browse
I don't have an H1 heli to test it on, but I played with it with my CCPM heli, and it seems to be roughly correct.
After loading that in your APM, then load up MP, go to the parameters page, and set h1_swash_enabled_ to 1, then write params. Then reboot your APM, and you should be in business.

I guess I need to close the loop on this. Support for H1 swash type is now built in to Arducopter. If you download 2.5 or greater, or install firmware from the Mission Planner, you will have it automatically. You can switch between swash types using the radio button in Mission Planner under the AC2 Heli tab.
Season Two of the Trust Time Trial (T3) Contest has now begun. The fourth round is an accuracy round for multicopters, which requires contestants to fly a cube. The deadline is April 14th.4 members
