APM2 and Futaba R6107SP PPM Sum

Posted by Marc LE BRET on February 29, 2012 at 9:34am

Hello,

I'm new in the APM2 world, and I have some trouble between APM2 and my Futaba PPM Sum receiver.

I activated PPM sum on the board (solder between PPM and CH5 pads), but no luck with it, no way to get a valid signal.

Do you have a solution? I prefer dealing with only one wire between APM and receiver...

With a classic 7 channels receiver I have some success with Stabilize, Alt hold, loiter (+-). Acro mode is a NoGo for the moment due to real sloppy flight - cannot find the right P for that in the Arducopter mission planer.

Thanks for help,

MLB

    My PPM sum of my FrSky TFRSP (Futaba compatible) also didnt work with ArduCopter. But it worked perfectly with ArduPlane.

    I, too, would like some help here.  I haven't seen instructions on how to activate PPM (apart from this post, thanks!)

    I have Spektrum Satellite receivers.  I even bought the level shifter along with my APM2 (if that is even needed).  I have the APM2 working with a normal receiver but I would really like to reduce the wire mess.

    Where do I start?  My googlefu has failed me.
