"Hello, I could not get the 6 modes, even after minor adjustment on OFFSET and MINOR values. What could possibly go wrong?"

"Will this config work with a tricopter if not what would need changing the A9 or mission planner thanks in advance"

"Thank John"

"Here is the config file it uses the following switches on the left side of the TX.  Please check the Mission Planner config and configure the flight modes to your liking.  You will then need to edit the flight conditions in the TX if you…"

"I will download my A9 configuration and send it to you later.  It has flight conditions built in so you can see the flight mode you are in on the transmitter.  I use 4 switches to get 6 modes.. 1 is setup to start a mission, 1 is RTL, the…"

"Any more detail on the Aurora 9 flight mode setup ? the setup not very clear and a bit confusing"

"the arducopter gopro 2 axis mount works fine. you you need to dremmel some slots into the base plate though. as for the overcompensating, change the horn poisition or the ratio in theMP params to change tge rate. take a bit of fiddling but works…"

"Ditto!  Philip, please detail what gimbal you got and how well it attaches to the 3DR, since I'm trying to mount a GoPro onto a 3DR too...  Thanks! -joe"

"I'm looking at the ArduCopter 3DR quad setup and am interested in your GoPro setup, that will be my main, if not only video solution. I'm not going to purchase until I can be assured that mounting and minimizing the jello vibration effect…"

"Can anyone state the process of using Ch6 tuning without telemetry? My ch6 is a two mode switch, up and down. So everytime I click it up it raises the rate?"

"  Same thing using a gyro channel. Flight mode displayed on the screen.   But you don't have to worry about mixer offset. Just program the right gyro sensitivity for each flight mode.   Gyro channel has been designed for this…"

"Don't see why using one gyro channel would be simpler than using one p.mixer. Never claimed it to be simple, Its clean. Their are some major advantages off this setup.Flight mode is displayed on the transmitter.Warning message when you turn on…"

"  A mixer is not the simpler function to do this.   Just use a gyro channel and assign the right gyro value for each flight condition. Then use this gyro channel for mode change.    "

"Or on an Aurora 9 you can...   Step 1, Define channel 5 as Aux 1 channel switch NULL Step 2. Menu (FLT.COND) Assign Flight Cond 1.Normal (default) Stabilised (E,0)2.Simple (E,1)3.Alt Hold (E,2)4.Loiter (F,1)5.Auto (G,1)6.RTL (H,1) Assign to the…"

"You probably don't wan to hear this but I am on my third IMU due to hard landings.   The on board sensors are far from immune to damage from a hard landing.   My damaged ones seemed to perform OK on the planner screen but they would…"

"You could try calibrating them individually by connecting each one to channel 3 (throttle) on your receiver.   the problem I had was using Pulso ESCs which auto calibrated and would not allow me to override the auto function.   The only…"
