"  Gord,  I would like to use the BMP085 on my IMU+v2.  I taught myself parallax spin language but don't know much as far as C goes.  It appears that the latest version of the IMU code has a user configurable option for the…"

"This is very cool.  Can you post more information on where you purchased the solar panels and what model?  What is the voltage output of each panel?"

"Something like the link below might be another good indicator if rising air is present. I think you would see a thermal by comparing the "lift reserve" with the current pitch from the…"

"I keep wondering if thermals can be found using temprature. A combo of thermocouples on wing tips with a down pointing thermopile might be enough to find the hot rising air. What temp differential is there in a thermal?"

"That could be it.  I set offsets to zero all three x, y, and z.  I will try putting the the Z at 480 and let you know later today if that was it.  Thanks-"

"accelerometer Z value should be around 408, not 0 check that, it should work"

"Plase check the offset of the sensors. Pitch, roll offset must be zero, z-axis value : 408 is proper. You should adjust offset."

 I am having issues getting my ArduCopter working.  Here is my setup:APM Oilpan version Hotel 1.0APM v1.0Ublox GPSRC2 Code No Magnometer It appears that the artificial horizon is not correct.  It drifts in both pitch, roll and yaw.  I have the dip switch settings with position 1 down an 2,3,4 up to fly in + mode.  SW2 on the board is set to 1.  I have tried multiple code versions and nothing seems to stabilize the artificial horizon. Here is a video of the issue in the configurator.  Please…See More
