FPV!
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
I'm a software developer with a huge interest in anything that flies.. been wanting to do FPV and autonomous flying for a long time.. the new tech and price points just made it possible.

"Hi glen, just reverse the channel in your ap. hth."
"+1 on either indigogo or kickstarter!"
"for 3.2.1 please add the 2 additional notes to make the complete "close encounters..." tones =) thanks for the update, looking forward to using this in a new rig!"
"*slap on forehead* =) thanks for taking time to clarify that! I've been searching exactly what it means by 'parallel' and I just never thought of doing it in a separate servo lead! "
"thanks.. may I know how you soldered it up? is it this way:
A) capacitor then zener in reverse
--------(+)-----/[capacitor]----/[zener diode with rev polarity]
--------(-)------/------------------/
B) zener in reverse then capacitor…"

"Hi rcfox, see if you can change the channel assignment in your transmitter so you can configure channel 8 in ezuhf to send the RSSI/LINK. AFAIK the current minimosd firmware will only read channel 8 on the mavlink messages.
If you cant change…"

"Oh another phantom.."
"I lost my SW when my transmitter LiPO ran out of juice and after RTL the plane's GPS went haywire.. I suspect its because of the vibration (due to the 3/4 auto max throttle) -- I was using an APM2.6, the pixhawk is supposed to have an improved…"
"hi zubair.. ok I think you're good to go, I flew 2.5km+ on ezuhf diversity and the lowest link strength was 97% majority of the time its a solid 100%.. why dont you reverse the output of channel 8 by changing the param rc8_rev to -1."
"hi zubair.. if RX channel 4 is the only LINK channel you have and that's whats connected to channel 8 then thats where the RSSI should be read. Your channel 7 might be reading something else which I suspect is your flight mode channel. Your…"
"Zubair, if channel 4 of your ezuhf is dedicated to 'link' then your flight modes are being coursed through another channel. For example, if your flight mode goes out of channel 5 of your receiver and you plug this to channel 5 in the apm you can…"
"no need to compile zubair, doesnt matter what output channel from ezuhf you have that as long as you have it on LINK. The important thing to do is you connect that channel to channel 8 of the APM input. That's because currently MinimOSD can only…"
Hi,I have a HK H4 quad with 13" props, AfroESCs, 640kv motors and 4s 5000mah, APM2.6+ ublox.When I maidened the rig a couple of months ago, it went initially well except for a disaster where one of the plastic props disintegrated mid-air.. had to…
"same thing happened to me.. after a crash and a rebuild. Been scratching my head for a week and a half on this.. it arms, at 45-50% (the quads' lift off throttle) it lifts off for a couple of inches and then all the motors shut down at the same…"
