When I looked at the 868Mhz xbees a long time ago they alway had a duty cycle issue - is that gone or do you work around it/ live with it
Cheers Paul"

Paul Feely replied to Hugues's discussion What are these clicking sounds of the motors ? in the group ArduCopter User Group"Don't know if is the same sort of click but have a look at this old post - there is an MP3 on it - if your click sounds the same then your fine.
Cheers, Paul"
Paul Feely replied to Primož Kralj's discussion Can't get Turnigy 9X working"I don't have a 9X so sorry can't help with programming it but something basic must be wrong if the servos don't move.
In you picture you still have the bind plug in - have you removed that now?
Cheers Paul"
Paul Feely replied to Primož Kralj's discussion Can't get Turnigy 9X working"When you plug the servos in first time they will centre to their 'neutral' position, that is normal.

Paul Feely commented on Jani Hirvinen's blog post ArduStation Mega v1.0b arrived"Finally back up and running with ASM !
I accidentally ripped the keyboard connector off the main board taking the tracks with it (these connectors are extra delicate on the ASM)....
Nasty repair with some enamelled wire and secured with…"
Paul Feely commented on Jani Hirvinen's blog post ArduStation Mega v1.0b arrived"Thanks Tom, I'll have a look at the xbees and another look at the connector repair (the keys don't change the display anymore - could do with a schematic!)
Cheers Paul"
Paul Feely commented on Jani Hirvinen's blog post ArduStation Mega v1.0b arrived"After a repair of the keyboard connector (a bit nasty as it lifted the tracks on the board) I get this on power up:
.....any ideas?
Is that the display f/w creating the display or is that Ardustation?
Cheers Paul"
Paul Feely commented on Jani Hirvinen's blog post ArduStation Mega v1.0b arrived"Duuh...updated drivers and now see ASM fine, I was working on a fresh Windows 7 and didn't have the Arduino IDE installed (which has the correct usb drivers).
While re-connecting keyboard I managed to rip off the IC2 connector -…"

I'm having mixed results in the early stages:
- got an…"

The board is marked v1.4, the capacitor on the power board is the right way around. Boots up with 'jDrones ASM v1.1' firmware.
