"wise method!
but have you think about it that you have to fly over all of the waypoint before landing. in emergency circumstances you might need come back immediately!"

V-Tail Mixing in firmware
Started Mar 26 0 Replies 0 Likes
Hi Droners. I've implemented V-tail mixing support in ArduPlane 2.68. I chose 2.68 rather than 2.70 as I am not using the PX4 board. Previously, if you were using a V-Tail model you have to use an…Continue

RTL Error - Drone Flies Away at High Speed Instead of Returning

Hi Droners. I've been having a problem with RTL using ArduCopter 2.6 for a while. It's intermittent, but annoying and a bit worrisome. When I take off I always test RTL if I'm going to fly FPV. That…Continue

Fête Mobile replied to Leo Hogg's discussion 2 Aileron channels. Has anyone got differential working properly?"At the moment, dual aileron does not seem to work with crow/spoileron configuration in any stabilized mode. So no, at this moment I don't think it will work. If I can find the time I'll try to solve this problem myself, but…"
Fête Mobile replied to Leo Hogg's discussion 2 Aileron channels. Has anyone got differential working properly?"Hi Mike. Were you going into crow/butterfly with stabilize mode? I encourage you to try it again, at least on the ground, and try it in MANUAL mode. As I said, that's the work-around to this bug. I wish we didn't…"
Fête Mobile replied to Leo Hogg's discussion 2 Aileron channels. Has anyone got differential working properly?"Hi All. I've tried out the AP2.68 firmware. It's really nice that the dual aileron control is in the firmware (finally) so I don't have to patch the code each time there's an update. I've been using dual…"
Fête Mobile replied to Andy Grose's discussion Help with APM2 and V-tail (with mixer)"Hi Andy. I finally got around to implementing V-Tail mixing in the AP2.68 firmware. It would be great if other folks could test it out, so if you're still wanting to do V-tail mixing, you can find information on the thread I…"
Fête Mobile posted a discussionV-Tail Mixing in firmware
Hi Droners. I've implemented V-tail mixing support in ArduPlane 2.68. I chose 2.68 rather than 2.70 as I am not using the PX4 board. Previously, if you were using a V-Tail model you have to use an external V-tail mixer. If you've tried an external V-tail mixer you will know they can be laggy and sometimes unreliable. Hence, I roll up a first pass of the V-tail firmware. At present it's implemented as a couple of pre-processor directives that you set in APM_Config.h. I'd like to make it…See More
Tim Green replied to Fête Mobile's discussion RTL Error - Drone Flies Away at High Speed Instead of Returning"My compass drifts as well. I noticed while flying in simple mode, that after several minutes, the orientation shifts. And continues to shift. I am hoping that the drift was caused by the heavy current in the battery wires, and that my recent move of…"
Paul replied to Fête Mobile's discussion RTL Error - Drone Flies Away at High Speed Instead of Returning"Hi Fête,
Sorry for reviving an old thread, but I can't find anything newer relating to this problem!
I've been having the same problems as you have described. I'm running 2.9.1 on a quad.
I've looked through my logs,…"
Søren Kuula replied to Fête Mobile's discussion ArduPlane RTL Descends Height-first Instead of Distance-first"Hi,
I would not. If my home altitude + ALT_HOLD_RTL is 500m and the plane is at300m and there is a 450m mountain between I want it to climb to 500 first, then cruise home.
But if the plane is higher than home altitude + ALT_HOLD_RTL it…"
Fête Mobile replied to Andke's discussion How to make RTL feature safer in mountains/higher terrain."I fly near mountains a lot and this is a big problem. I lost one drone as a result, although the real fault was mine for flying sort of around the mountain.
The problem is worse than you might think. Imagine you take off from a…"
Fête Mobile replied to JeffBetts_KK4MTC's discussion RTL using GPS breadcrumbs - New RTL mode?"I'd like to see this as well. I recall coming across a function to assign a spare channel to "save waypoint". I've always wondered what those waypoints were used for. "
Fête Mobile replied to Fête Mobile's discussion ArduPlane RTL Descends Height-first Instead of Distance-first"Without digging into the code, what you're suggesting (setting an overhead waypoint, auto to fly back home) sounds like a fairly simple modification. I'd like to see someone implement this and make it the default behaviour of…"
Søren Kuula replied to Fête Mobile's discussion ArduPlane RTL Descends Height-first Instead of Distance-first"Hi,
I have looked through the code already Here.
As far as I can see, there are only min. and max. pitch to adjust, and the parameter for how high above home RTL should go to.
Waypoint flight will ramp the altitude linearly between waypoints. And as…"
