"Hi there. Is there like some kind of a camera on the ground to give it negative feedback or the camera is onboard the quadcopter to track its own motion?  Cheers~ Suan Ruey"

Hi everyone. I had made a quadcopter and I had been testing it since June. It is made out of APM 2.0, Jdrones 20amps ESCs and 850kv motors, with the DJI frame set.It had only gone through one maiden flight, and it had crashed a lot during the flight. Now, it is not able to fly properly and it fly in circles after throttle up. I had suspected it is one of those gyro problems.How do I go about to test whether the gyroscope had gone wrong? Moreover, is there any specific way to test that one of…See More

"Hi Emile. It worked perfectly, as compared to the previous setting. The 'Heli' setting made the flying very unstable since after a couple of crashes from the maiden flight. The 'ACRO' setting allowed a much quicker way to tune…"

"Im a pretty much a newbie to arducopter, and just setup a quadcopter about 3 - 4 weeks back. It will sound really odd, but how would one upload the new arducopter 2.7 firmware into our multirotor? Regards Suan Ruey"

"They are still pretty much straight. I always level the quadcopter before each flight now. The HUD also shows that the level is horizontal too when I placed it on the floor. The floor would be a level surface, isnt it? Cheers "

Quadcopter is flying in all four directions

Good day to all arducopter lovers, I'm a student from a uk university, and I am from Singapore. I had successfully built a quadcopter using the APM 2.0 flight controller, a motor and esc set from Jdrones, and a F-450 frame. After all the proper configurations are done and built, the maiden flight was flawless and it was able to fly off properly at my nearby sports stadium. However, after the first flight and numerous crashes and repairs, the quadcopter was unable to take off stably. The…See More
