"Rick, Did you get this working using the GPIO pins or did you go a different direction?  My application (an ACS) would need 6 channels. Thanks, Larry D. Grater"

"I think you should use some different hardware for this project.  I doubt the APM would be a good choice for something moving that fast. Rick"

"In theory that would be the maximum that GPS would support which is 515m/s but the devs would know better then I. Rick"

"I have heard a lot and read a lot of posts on how bad Spektrum radio gear is.  I personally cant understand why this is.  I fly with 2 other people, almost daily in the summer and on weekends around this time of year.  I can speak for…"

"Is there any way I can increase the range of the gimbal or add a multiply factor so I get a greater range of rotation?  I have messed around with the min and max values, so I know the servo is capable of rotating in a much larger range, the…"

"No these will not work for a quad, you need at least an 11.1 battery for flight with those motors and props.\ Rick"

"They will turn but that is too much prop for those motors.  I run a 10x4.7 and they get hot. Rick"

"I am currently using a 1.2 1W video setup.  I would suggest a low pass filter if you are using 2.4G radio gear.  With out the filter I find range on the radio is shortened. Rick"

"What is with the use of heaters on this craft? Rick"

"If you keep having issues with it, if you install Team Viewer, I can give you a hand.  Cheers, Rick"

"I have used digital servos connected to the apm2 via the camera gimbal tilt, and roll connections.  They work quite well, you hear them fidget allot but that is the constant updating from the APM2.  Unfortunately I cannot comment on…"

"Please excuse my ignorance, perhaps I am not seeing the problems you are but wouldn't a simpler / safer solution, what that doesn't include cutting traces and messing with the APM include just powering the APM separately?  I use a 68…"
