"Do you even need to set a 1 second pause? Copter should fly the route perfectly with a 0.1 second pause surely...?"
"Is there a possibility of a trial licence? The most interesting feature is the ability to import a DEM but $2000 is a lot to test it."
"that does look a good solution - will be interested in the result of your investigations..."

"set the ins_use2 parameter to 0
I'll reenable imu2 and get some logs - thanks very much!
hover analysis and logs with imu2 disabled below"

"Brilliant information and tool, thanks very much. Although my vibration damping method is primitive (blocks of hobbyking orange latex top and bottom of the pixhawk, holding it in slight tension between top and bottom plates) compared to yours…"
"Hi Darrel, will be very interested in how Smart RTK and Reach compare! London is pretty well supplied with base stations. I did try surveying a Reach base station point and then using that to provide the reference for post processing the rover, but…"
"Thanks very much - this was the first result after an initial trial which produced surprisingly good results, so hopefully can improve things with a bit more work."
"It was using the Reach 3.3 release, I haven't yet tried 3.4. Unfortunately the less than ideal positioning of the ground plane for the Reach antenna relative to the M8N unit causes significant degradation of the M8N performance - not to the point…"
We have been using a Canon S100 running CHDK and KAP script for mapping and modelling using Pix4d for a while, and thought it might be useful to share the results of some testing of the possibility of GCP free mapping using the Canon and Emlid Reach…
"how are your vibrations? I was having a similar problem with an x8 on auto missions, particularly with a bit of wind when passing over tall trees or buildings. Copter would seem to hesitate and lose a metre or two of altitude before recovering and…"
"I just mean the standard canon on screen display, top left corner of the screen is a sat icon, seen in the screnshot here http://www.cnet.com/products/canon-powershot-s100/2/ showing no lock.
on the script menu, try setting shot interval to burst…"

"Hi there, the canon OSD (as opposed to the CHDK one) has a satellite symbol which tells you when the camera has locked on. It's usually pretty quick.
I've never changed any of the CHDK GPS settings from default, just enable GPS in the camera menus…"

"just spotted the above was about the rx100 not s100. so my comment not terribly relevant. apologies!"
"Hi, if you are using an S100 do you not find the auto time update feature gives you good enough time sync to just use time offset method with an offset of zero? I have found this to be more accurate than tagging using the cam_trig messages. Usually…"
"Thanks very much, it had occurred to me that the IMUs might be differently affected by the setup, I had just thought I might find someone else who had experienced this issue - the difference between flight with both IMU enabled and the just one was…"
