"I would not mount it on top of an aircraft unless it has a canopy or some sort of cover over it. Remember there is a barometer inside and depending on how air will be directed internally it could effect or cause issues the the Baro sensor."

"Having your FC off of CG will be an issue
Especially at high speeds. Just for the hell of it,
On one of your other fixed wings move your pixhawk From CG to the same distance as you would on your skyrunner.
Take it out on a calm day and fly it at…"

"My best advice is to go to the rover form and ask. All my experience is flight related and I fly auto , preset waypoint missions for my line of work. I have a few customers that are in need of watercraft mapping drones for maping lakes so I will be…"

"You will have to be outside and run your rover to the waypoints you want to learn. Remember your waypoints will only be accurate in open areas, you need an unobstructed view of the sky.
If you want to set waypoints in advance for a mission then you…"

"Did you confirm operations in MP when you setup your flight modes?
Also pixhawk will beep when flight modes are changed and MP will also give you audio and visual confirmation."

"How do you know it's not working?
Or why don't you think it is not working.
Your question is like asking if your shoe is tied. Sorry but your not giving any useful information that indicates that it's not working."

"For what its worth I would add the Zener and the cap as seen in Wiki. I have seen pixhawk shut down and reboot using digital servos. Remember to power the rail with good clean reliable power because the power that is plunged into the rail is…"

"Paul
Take the props off your aircraft.

Boot up pixhawk and connect to MP.
Take a look at…"

"For what its worth, what would you say if they came unplugged in flight and you lost 10 grand in camera equipment.
They are doing what they were designed to do and do it very very well.
I have 5 pixhawks now and have had Zero issues with them and or…"

"I have 2 pixhawks mounted out in open air and have had no issues with loosing altitude. As Ian had suggested, , get some logs to look at. Logs will tell the story.
You did start from a fresh setup and have no mixes involved, I'm sure there isn't but…"

"How much altitude are you losing?
If you were to keep flying forward would it fly itself into the ground?"

"If you're traveling 100 or more miles it's a good idea.. 25 ,50 or so miles isn't a big deal. Personally anything over 50 miles I recalibrate just to be on the safe side..
But that's me."
