"Swapped FCS to "normal" orientation with a known good board. No change."

James Peverill replied to James Peverill's discussion Challenging motor stutter issue
"Dataflash log from recent flight. You can see when I ramp throttle, pitch and roll both diverge quickly. The RCOU on ch2 (the arm that is acting strangly) looks a little noisy but it is hard to tell since it is logged at a lower rate. Can anyone…"

Hello all! I had previously posted this on RCgroups but through the course of my troubleshooting I am beginning to think this is not a motor control issue as I had initially thought. I have gone full circle at this point and think it may be flight…

James Peverill replied to James Peverill's discussion APM2.5 Relay output not working?
"I gave up on the relay output, it just seems to be broken. Despite hacking around with the code something is locking it high and I could not figure out what. I disabled the copter LED's which seem to use those pins, but no dice.

James Peverill replied to James Peverill's discussion APM2.5 Relay output not working?
"Sounds like for APM2.5 the relay output may not work properly? There was a commit about a month or two ago which eliminated this restriction, so the latest rc software should be working?"

I can't seem to get the relay shutter output option to work. I believe I set it up correctly (set shutter type under gimbal to relay, set ch7 option to camera trigger). Ch7 is coming in correctly (goes from 1000 to 1900 when button is hit). A9…
