Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
Just a step up from R/C. I enjoy watching a machine do its job.

"Thanks for the response and link.
We'd thought about a true AGL sensor but for simplicity's sake we'd like to stick with barometric altitude. However, given that all the potential missions for this craft place it within 100m of the ground, it's…"

Hello all,I've recently integrated a Bergen Observer EB with a Pixhawk. When the rotor spools up, we see extreme variations in the barometric altitude that are consistent changes in collective pitch. (ie negative pitch creates a low pressure and the…
"Tridge,
Thanks for confirming that. I had suspected it, and SITL doesn't need it, but I'd never seen it set up, so I wasn't sure.
Hurray for the devs! New ArduPlane firmware makes my week!
Thanks,
Will"

"Grant,
I didn't think that Takeoff needed a lat/long. I thought that it locked the heading until the altitude was reached, then turned on course, but I will definitely give it a try.
The weather doesn't look good here for a test until later in the…"

"Andre,
Thank you! I'll wait to see what Grant says before making a comment on GitHub, but your insights are very valuable.
Also interesting is the pitch I-gain. It starts increasing when the mode is switched to Manual before launch, and doesn't…"

"Grant and Andre,
Haha! I promise that I read that page before loading up a flight plan, and had everything setup as best I understood from that page you linked to, as well as my other experiences with APM/Pixhawk and Mission Planner.
I'm not sure…"

Hello,I have a Skywalker X-8 with a Pixhawk running ArduPlane V3.2.3, and I'm trying to get the automatic takeoff working smoothly.Currently, the aircraft is setup with a Turnigy SK3 3548 700kV motor, a Master Airscrew S-2 series 11x8 prop, and a 5s…
