"Instead of the expensive teensy, there is updates to ardupilot and opentx (including a lua script) and a simple 50 cent inverter, seen in the link below.
If you have F.Port on your Rx, then no converter is needed now (of course updating Tx/Rx/FC).…"

"I have been told that GPS config is automatically done in pixhawk now, is this true?"
"Thanks for the reply. Does acro mode have "air-mode"? If your not familiar with this mode, most FC reduce PID values when thro is lower than half thro, this was done from long ago as quads did not fly with less than half thro, same with heli's. But…"
"+1, looks like the config file on the 1st page is 8 years old and for 5 series gps, what about M8N gps configuration and pixhawk? tia"
"So fast forward 3 years, I am curious how the "acro" mode is now. Is there still self leveling part of it or is it true rate mode?
How will it fair to betaflight? tia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHoFfpLSb2g&t=1s"

"If the mag (compass) is on the FC, then thats a issue, if its not, your fine."

Very common one is MPU-6000, its good up to 8KHz update rate, but for 32KHz we use IMU-20602 (and 20601). I prefer 32K for lowest latency for this type of flying.…"

"$60 PixHack on ebay., if you want to save money, APM 2.x are as low as $21 (on BG or xtxinte). Stay away from on board mag (or be able to disable them)."
"I could not find anything on double or triple flight time, nothing to do with making the motor/esc more efficient. Since the flight power train (motor/esc) uses 98% of all the other electronics on board, I have zero hope for the flight time increase…"
"Another option for a ~$10 mode switcher. Looks like PWM output.

"Personally my experience is "lower cost" multiple batteries in series/parallel has two fold benefit. If a cell in a pack goes bad, your only out 1/2 the pack (unless you know how to assemble packs with a simple spot welding technique, 99% don't). I…"
"The over priced DJI 18A opto esc's are just plain Hobbywing esc's.
Much better to get the all N-FET $9 HK F-30a, and flash with the latest SK (with boot-loader) with comp_pwm using rapidflash, why?
1. All N-FET (cooler and more efficient):,,,
2. SK…"
