"Hi Arion,
I had some luck yesterday with my quad. I noticed the quad would oscillate around the 1-2 axis fairly quickly, probably just under 10 Hz in a pretty unstable way. I also noticed motor (2) on my quad was angled slightly towards the center…"

"Hi Arion -
I had a look at your video. It looks similar to what I experienced today. Let me know if you figure out what is happening and I'll do the same.
Another note I remember now after reading your post I only put 1 out of the 4 screws on for…"

Don't know exactly what happened. Had 3 successful 3-5 minute flights in stabilize, autotune, and loiter modes prior to attempting autotune. During first flights quad was generally stable but much less smooth than my brother's quad with similar…
"I'm heading out again this afternoon to fly. Any feedback? I'd like to know if there are tests I can perform or particular patterns that can be flown to generate relevant logs. Thanks."
The Phoenix is reborn in new form! The skyhunter airframe that previously housed my APM 2.5 has been upfit after the last crash with a Pixhawk autopilot and the components listed below.The plane flies well. So far I've logged about an hour of manual…
"I broke down and ordered a new APM yesterday. Worst case I'll have two now and can automate another plane but I am suspecting a hardware problem based on the nature of the plane. I flew it again yesterday and experienced the same problems, lethargic…"
Hello,I recently built a skyhunter and transplanted my APM electronics to it from another airframe that has since been retired (due to a crash).I've had the skyhunter up in the air a few times now and am concerned that the APM sensors may be…
"Rana,
Thanks for the reply. I was eventually able to get the radios to communicate to my computer. In truth I believe the radios were working correctly the entire time, I could see the LED's behave as expected when one radio was on and the second…"

"I just purchased these radios and had some trouble getting them to work immediately. I spent quite a bit of time trying to understand what the problem was and eventually found that the newest FTDI driver did not work with the supplied cable and…"
"Brad, my problem was I was trying to plug the GPS into the new style connector on the top but I had an old style GPS cable that plugs in on the side. I damaged the pins but replaced the cable and got it working well... Until I crashed my plane last…"
"As I continued to play with the hardware this evening I noticed the blue "Fix" LED does blink, but only very dimly in a fairly regular pattern. The voltage is not enough to fully illuminate this LED, but if the lights are low enough it can be…"
Hello,I purchased the APM 2.5+ and 915 MHz telemetry kit which arrived yesterday. I assembled the components and powered on everything seems to work except the GPS. I have established a telemetry connection, can see the attitude, roll pitch, etc.…
