So here's the issue...(with the APM2 running the arduplane software)The throttle is reversing in a strange way.  When in manual mode, everything works as expected, but when the APM2 is switched into stabilize, auto, etc... the throttle is reversed.I…

"Just got one of THESE.  Haven't tested it yet though.  I'll let you know how it turns out."

Jeb Bailey commented on Chris Anderson's blog post An Australian drone-based aerial imaging business
"Personally, I don't see any of these regulations as being unreasonable.  It seems that they address all the safety concerns  without being overly restrictive.  If the US could adopt these kind of regs, we'd be flying tomorrow.

Also, your figure of…"

Jeb Bailey commented on Adam Rivera's blog post ArduCopter Automatic PID Tuning - BRAVE TESTERS ONLY
"What're the chances that this will work with the ArduPlane code?  Or can it be made to?  I'd love to test this out on a fixed wing platform."

Having a bit of an issue, it seems that no output signal is going to my servos.  Everything else appears to be working correctly (APM is reading TX as evidenced by config screen, servos are getting power as they twitch when power is applied) but the…

Jeb Bailey commented on Chris Anderson's blog post ArduPilot 2012 Software Roadmap
"I don't know of any in the commercial sphere, but that's mainly because anyone who can afford something that needs a launcher can afford to buy one.  Most of the larger sUAS do actually land conventionally, and the commercial AP's I'm familiar with…"

Jeb Bailey commented on Chris Anderson's blog post ArduPilot 2012 Software Roadmap
"I would REALLY like to see a more robust auto-takeoff/land system for ArduPlane.  The current code is basically turn on/off the motor and hope for the best.  A successful ROG takeoff is a rare thing without RC interevention.

While flaring is…"

I'm trying to control my pan/tilt gimbal with a joystick through the mission planner.Having a bit of an issue, as the servos immediately go into motion when APM is powered.  I have the two servos plugged into channels 5&6, and those outputs mapped…

Jeb Bailey replied to Jonathan Challinger's discussion Is the rudder used for auto T/O?
"I've been waiting for a solution to this as well.  I've done several auto takeoffs with an apprentice; the key is to manually hold in rudder correction as the plane throttles up.  Remember that if your plane is trimmed properly, it should yaw to the…"

Jeb Bailey replied to Adam Rivera's discussion Camera Stabilization (Tilt) w/ infinite servos (360)
"I'm wondering this as well.  I've got THESE installed in a pan tilt gimbal, but i'm not sure how to set them up.  Or if you even can.

Has anyone had luck with this?"

I'm building one atm, I've had it in the air on RC control.  Now I'm integrating the ArduPlane, and camera gear.  I'll post something when it's ready."

Jeb Bailey commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Parrot AR.Drone 2 announced, adds HD vid, baro
"Baro really does make a difference.  With just sonar, if you go over a ledge the AR.Drone drops like a rock.  Hopefully, the new version has some sort of check to eliminate that problem."
