"@Gary,
All very good points. I guess though my "disappointment" is that they've released it (assuming it is the APM / 2560) with an already overstretched CPU. Or they have code and features that resemble what our life was like with APM2.5.
It is…"

"I cannot see what the CPU is. If it really is then is it not like buying a 486? I just found out all my pixhawks are essentially bricks soon. If this is APM then why would you?"
"wha?! and get the truth? noooo, "the internet said so" :p"
"VR Brain has been around for a while. I would try that.
My issue with the RPi offerings is the size. Real-estate on most airborne platforms is at a premium. "

"BYOD or UMTech?
It's a pity if it's true. I would rather not buy copies from HK or fleabay and I don't really want to be a continuous guinea pig for the new starters coming.
What other options are there?"

"If you have a Pixhawk with 3.3+ and the buzzer connected the it beeps to confirm the mode change."
"In advanced params in mission planner there is the option to for the servo - set it to pass-through. Once the safety switch is pressed then you should have throughput to the servo.

"Nice feature! It would be less stressful flying overhead water."
Hi folks,I've just noticed that the logs / tuning graph shows RC 6/7/8 having output even though there is no actual output. Once I press the safety switch then the outputs really do spring to life.I have channel 6/7/8/9 set to rcPassThru (1) and…
"Most odd Marc. The Hobby King Blue 40A ones I had certainly did not like the low KV motors. I had read that SimonK also has problems but I read many people using them just fine.
I flashed mine with bs40a.hex from https://github.com/c---/simonk_tgy3d…"

"it's not all bad...
I had 6 HK 40A blue series with a pixhawk and it was impossible to fly with the RC Timer 360KV. Calm day, light on the throttle and it would be ok. Slight gust of wind, it would lose sync and crash.
Simple fix - flash them with…"

"Correct - sort of.
You can connect MinimOSD RX to your telemetry TX.
Don't connect the OSD TX to the telemetry RX though or you'll get weird stuff happening.
So, telem1 TX > Radio RX and OSD RX

"That's a bummer... When you say "Would not disarm" is that after an auto landing?
If you're going to sell it, PM me the details when you ready - if the price is right I might take all or any bits you're willing to sell (just frame etc)

"Did you have any joy getting to the bottom of this? I've got the same on a new frame now - perhaps a bit worse.

Hi folks,I had a quad Pixhawk, 3.2, which has had two "wobbles" in the air. Both occasions it looked like one motor shut down. On both occasions it turned back on and had enough height to recover (while falling I throttle at 100%)Sadly the third…
