"Hi Ovidiu,
I'm glad you fixed the problem.
I'm sorry if I've confused you. I always program the board using theIDE Arduino and thing, wrongly, that everyone does so.
Have fun!
Regards,
Anderl"

Anderl replied to Ovidiu Sopa's discussion APM 2.5 not arming"Ovidiu, you have to do what I said above. The code (AC V2.8.1 also) is preset so that, when compiled, will work with the APM1
1- Open the Arducopter code using the IDE Arduino
2- Go to APM_Config.h
3- Uncomment the #define CONFIG_APM_HARDWARE…"
Ovidiu Sopa replied to Ovidiu Sopa's discussion APM 2.5 not arming"No I did not changed anything, just installed the latest firmware using mission planner.
After comparing his radio settings with mine I discovered he has on CH1 the RUD, and on CH4 the AIL, My radio is setup differently on CH1 AIL and on CH4 the…"
Anderl replied to Ovidiu Sopa's discussion APM 2.5 not arming"Hi Ovidiu,
Have you uncommented the line
#define CONFIG_APM_HARDWARE APM_HARDWARE_APM2
in file APM_config.h?

Ovidiu Sopa replied to Ovidiu Sopa's discussion APM 2.5 not arming"We did try to pair myTurnigy 9x Radio with his receiver and it seems it does work with my radio, it's weird that the calibration process and everything else works with his receiver, also his other OCTO equiped with the same FrSKY receiver…"
Ovidiu Sopa replied to Ovidiu Sopa's discussion APM 2.5 not arming"That is not the case, only while we made the video we powered it by usb, otherwise we tried with the connected lipo.
PS. My friend has also an octocopter with APM1 which is flying great, but can't make the new 2.5 board work."
Justin L replied to Ovidiu Sopa's discussion APM 2.5 not arming"I think you will find the it wont arm while being powered by usb."

Hello guys,A friend of mine got the APM 2.5 board and he build an octo frame, we have connected everything now and calibrate the ESCs, calibrated the radio in Mission Planner, setup fail safe and the other things we found in the wiki.In mission planner everything seems fine but we cant make the octo to arm when moving the left stick to down - right.I will attach a photo from Radio Calibration tab while trying to arm the copter, the yaw is to the maximum value, flight mode was STABILIZE. also…See More
Ovidiu Sopa commented on Mark Harrison's blog post Ardupilot Failsafe for Turnigy 9x / FrSky module"I just set up my fail safe using you method, I set the flightmode to RTL and than pushed the FailSafe button on the FrSky receiver.

SKY EYE replied to Ovidiu Sopa's discussion Camera pointing to a fixed subject, no mather in wich direction the UAV moves??"??? aaa... hmm... don't know i'm more buy, and plug and play type, can't really help you on that part."
Ovidiu Sopa replied to Ovidiu Sopa's discussion Camera pointing to a fixed subject, no mather in wich direction the UAV moves??"Thank you. So with the APM I can't make this, is this because the board processing power (not enough to do this task) or just because there is no interest in this feature, and the devs are focusing on other features ?"
SKY EYE replied to Ovidiu Sopa's discussion Camera pointing to a fixed subject, no mather in wich direction the UAV moves??"Click me GPS Follows
Probably need some $$$ to spend"

Hello everyone,I was wondering if any of the two scenarios are possible with APM2 or APM2.5:Scenario 1.Launch the octocopter and point it to a subject, let's say a building, is it possible to activate a "camera lock" at that position by flipping a switch on the TX ? So I can move the copter around but the camera to always be pointed at the buildingScenario 2.Using mission planner to mark a waypoint where the subject is, than when the Flying MODE is switched to a specific mode, the UAV should…See More
