Quick PX4 Tutorial: RC calibration with Mission Planner

The next few posts in our tutorial series cover the setup of the PX4 autopilot for flight. The first step is to set up RC and telemetry. Here is a RC calibration video with Mission Planner showing the interoperability (due to MAVLink 1.0) of PX4 and APM.

 

The video is very short and basic and should just illustrate the route PX4 is taking towards maximum interoperability with MAVLink 1.0 and existing platforms and tools. If you have further questions about the platform or if you're unboxing it in the next days, please use PX4 Answers to get solid answers from the core developers and real-life tips from other users. We will reward active contributors to the answers and wikis with a community award and hardware.
