PID tuning for 12" instead of 10" props

In general, what direction would PIDs be tuned when moving from 10x4.7" to 12x4.7" props on a mostly-standard ArduCopter? When putting together my current FPV rig I found that I got more stable…Continue

vaeddyn commented on Sandro Benigno's blog post MinimOSD meets ArduCAM OSD Config"One more question now that my shiny new cable has come in: how is the FTDI cable to be connected to the MinimOSD board? Was that written up somewhere in the FAQ and I missed it?"
vaeddyn commented on Sandro Benigno's blog post MinimOSD meets ArduCAM OSD Config"This is awesome. Wanted to check, I have a couple different ISPs (AVR_ISP2.0 from a KKmulti rig, an Atmel ISP, and an Adafruit TinyISP). Is it possible to use any of these to program the MinimOSD or do I need yet another cable?…"
vaeddyn commented on Sandro Benigno's blog post MinimOSD in DIYDrones Store!"Just so I don't misunderstand, then, that's just a power pass-through to the camera, the OSD draws its power from the 5v rail of the telemetry port? Thanks for taking the time to answer, by the way, I appreciate it."
vaeddyn commented on Sandro Benigno's blog post MinimOSD in DIYDrones Store!"question re: power for the minimOSD: My video Tx passes 5v to my camera. Does the MinimOSD require 12v between camera and Tx or will it take 5v on that line as well? I think my camera can do either but the wiring harness is a lot…"

"This is now fixed.
(We'd pushed an MP update for MAVLink 1.0 before the accompanying ArduPlane and ArduCopter updates. Just a sync issue.)"
3D RoboticsChris Anderson replied to vaeddyn's discussion MAVLINK errors on one PC only
"Please revert to 1.0.86 while we sort this issue out."

So as of yesterday I am unable to make a MAVLINK connection through my telemetry gear, but only on my laptop. When I hit connect (yes, port and baud rate are right, CLI switch is in the flight position) the connection window immediately disappears without counting down a timeout or displaying the "get parameters" screen. About 15-30 seconds later I get the following error message: System.ArguementException: offset and length were out of bounds for the array or count is greater than the number…See More

"Yes, you're right--that would have fixed it. Sounds like something got fried on that APM board. If you've got an AVR programmer you can try reloading the bootloader."
vaeddyn replied to vaeddyn's discussion Cannot upload APM software"Doesn't look like it. Also, if that were the case, changing to the other shield (with its own USB) would probably have fixed it, no?"

"Check to see if the USB connector solder joint has been cracked or is loose. If you're not careful removing the USB cable you can damage the connector."
