2.x and X mode?

Hi everyone, little out of touch here, I've not yet updated to 2.x and am a little confused about how X mode should be configured now. It seems the mission planner route (which is great as it makes firmware upload much easier) suggests that the default setup is + but as all the lights on my frame are laid out for X I'd like to stick to that if possible.Do I need to rotate the APM to face forwards? And how is X specified now? In the CLI or do I need to manually upload code & configuration?Thanks in advance and great work on getting 2.x out to all involved.

    ip9: you load the quad firmware and set + or x in the Mission Planner setup. This is all in the manual.
  • Hi ip9,

    I just made the transformation today from + to X. I have rotated my APM to face forward and it is my understanding that this is necessary. In terms of specifying the configuration, you can do this easily in the setup mode of the CLI from the APM planner or Arduino.

    Hope this helps
