"They've expanded the allowable coverage area per flight but no 2nd battery support. It does auto move the next grid after each flight not nothing compared to maps made easy.
Would love to try site scan but after talking to a sales rep clearly…"

"I've tested it the past two days without issue. Was hugely disappointed to see the 3dr Site Scan app be locked to and require a you to purchase their over priced package. The pix4d simplifies the process. The maps made easy app on iOS is still my…"
"Hi Randy,
I'd greatly appreciate it. What I notice is a very noisy IPD which looks to be caused by a very noisy baro. At least in comparison to the wiki.
Using the 3.3 vibration tool it looks like my vibrations are acceptable.
Here's the .log:…"

"I'll relook at vibrations. I've been using the Copter 3.3 Vibration tool in mission planner. I'd assume that motor bell slop would show up as vibration."
"It is a 3DR manufactured Pixhawk. Opening it up and adding additional foam was my next idea. It remains in the 3DR case under the dome.
How do you recalibrate the barometer?"
How do you recalibrate the barometer?"
"Any suggestions on improving noisy IPD EKF values? It appears that it is mostly related to a Noisy Barometer. I've got vibrations well below acceptable levels.
The Pixhawk is housed in an rctimer dome.

I'm troubleshooting some Altitude Hold Problems that are resulting in a about 5 feet of Altitude drop while transitioning from hover to directional flight.My vibrations are acceptable but I've noticed a high variations in the barometer and IPD EKF…
I've been having altitude hold issues with Pixhawk.I was previously using a Tarot 650 frame and altitude hold was near perfect. I transplanted everything from the Tarot 650 to a slightly larger frame. Same props/motors/ESCs/FC. Frame is nearly…
"I've been making progress on the issue. Referencing http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/loss-of-altitude-after-horizont...

"I've done this mod and have made improvements especially in forward flight. I do get some altitude in backwards and rolling left to right.
Is there a theory on optimum placement of the static port?"
Is there a theory on optimum placement of the static port?"
"Am I chasing the right path with the barometer, Or could the source be a bad Accel, IMU config or something else. "
"Graph of flight from today"
I've been troubleshooting Altitude loss in primarily forward flight. Left or Right roll into a wind results in the same altitude loss as well as being more pronounced when flying into the wind in forward flight. Backwards flight seems to not suffer…
Hello,I'm running a DJI S900 on Pixhawk running the latest stable version with a frsky taranis. This morning I replaced the motor rubber dampening pads with DJI Part 35 which is a softer damper that is supposed to reduce vibration / micro bounces in…
"The pixhawk is over aggressive in correcting for the wind causing vibration. I want to lower the aggressiveness of the pixhawk when correcting for wind. Non wind flying is perfect"
I'm running a Pixhawk on a DJI S900 and its flight characteristics are very good in calm winds. The video coming out of the gimbal is vibration free. Anytime the wind picks up the Pixhawk holds its position well but is correcting to aggressively and…
