I am a bit concerned about the energy spent and fuss about the Simple feature, so I will post my considerations, hoping it will help someone understand better this feature. The simple mode (feature)…Continue

Navigation and attitude is the same, but we push a bit more on the mpu6000 with different gyro full scale, faster sampling and a 250Hz loop.
We have the current Arducopter master (AP_HAL)…"

I used it also on my GPS and have no issue at all. Plastic is transparent to GPS signal.
If you are really concerned you could just cut the shrinking tube a few millimiters inside the border of the antenna, so that…"

Greg replied to emile's discussion Jdrones ESC programming and settings."Did you ever get a reply from Jani? Just curious becuase I have bought a number of these 30A ESCs but could never get an answer to emails for the recommeded settings for use with APM2. I suspect the rate should not be at the default of low."

I think it's time to change motors and frame....
Had a lot of fun. This…

Hello Everyone, we all know our GPS board (the one that comes with the APM1) has no battery to backup data.
This has the disadvantage to make the GPS not very precise in the first minutes after power up and that every startup is a cold startup (at least one minute to get a 3D fix).
This is because the GPS needs find the satellites without a…
