Autopilot brownies

The reflow oven went haywire at DIY Drones HQ, and these melted ArduPilot Megas are the result. That's one batch of beta testers who are just going to have to wait a bit longer for their gear :-(

Comment by guru_florida on March 20, 2011 at 9:14pm: More than a year late, but...FYI...If you are using the max6675 as the temp sensor with K thermocouple...then bit 2 in the serial bitstream tells you if the thermocouple is valid/connected or not. A good bit to test and shutdown if it's HIGH.

Also: Do you know your PID coefficients by chance? I've made my own oven and tuning it now.
