"Here there,I see only one I2C port on the Pixracer, and I am concerned because my plan is to use ArduPlane w/ the I2C digital airspeed sensor on a small plane (1m/39inches wingspan). Can I disconnect the external magnetometer and put instead the…"
The board sensors are limited to 16g, so I cannot record my pylon racer dynamics in high g turns (~1.5s long). They are typically in the 20-30g range, but might unfortunatly (racing wise) go beyond that. These sensors sounds good :Sparkfun sells the…
"Both works. Pixhawk has very specific advantages (EKF, terrain following, fast log) at some extra cost (base price, airspeed price). I have been using APM for leisure, had some fun with mapping, landing on my club landing strip and so on.

"I had such an oscillation problem when throwing my X5 with aft COG. But when I throw it with a correct CG, which is a matter of millimeter on the X5, it is all good. Also, I never had such a problem when throwing my finwing pinguin. The pinguin…"
"I used with great success (more than enough power) :
- a turnigy D2826-6 2200kv motor
- a plush 40A ESC on 3S battery
- 7x4 prop"

"Attached is the script which works for me (can shoot every second). Hope that helps other facing the same issue.

"Your comment is much appreciated. It tells me this is quite tricky, and I am afraid to sidetrack. It is indeed somewhat in contradiction with reyalp's post in the chdk forum I linked just above (SD card speed doesn't matter). I tested the…"
"My cannon camera (A2200 and SX120) are not fast enough to get me one shoot every 2 seconds. That's what I am aiming for because my X5 likes to fly at 15m/s and I would like to take a picture every 30m. I tried every 50, but pictures don't overlap,…"
"I was looking for a mean to get an antenna tracker, and was not that delighted to have to plug APM planner to get. That is great news for my hobby use. Many thanks."
"What about 4 wings like the X-wing (from star wars) ? Besides the coolness/crazyness, that might give sweatest stability in yaw at the expense of weight and drag. Just getting excited by your idea and dreaming about the potential of VTOL & long…"
"What about foldable wing ? Just an idea with performance in mind."
"Glad to learn that audio link is not the way to go with an APM w/radio link. Many thanks for this, and for putting together a project I'll be likely using in a couple of monthes."
"This is sweat : I'd be interested once I finally reach longer range. I would love not using a laptop.
How hard/possible would it be to get the GPS data through the audio link (still using the ardupilot) ?"

FYI : this project (link 1) already convert MAVlink to S.Port from such that
Taranis~~~~~~~~~~~~X6R---teensy---APM.
It is not two ways, it doesn't convert the data from the taranis to mission planner. That is why I would love to…"

What a headache ! My board is minimosd V0.1 from hobbyking (got it a monthes ago.)."

I am looking for a ***short and simple*** piece of code in order to get my sensors (battery, my own arduino RPM) on my taranis through the X8R (no APM on all planes). Has anybody already done such a thing ?
