Warning #1: PX4/Pixhawk users upgrading from AC3.1.5 (or earlier) may need to re-do their compass and accelerometer calibration because AC3.2 also uses the backup compass and accels. Pre-arm checks have been added to ensure this has been done.
Warning #2: on the APM2.x the logs must be downloaded using MAVlink instead of the terminal.
AC3.2-rc14 is now available for BetaTesters through the mission planner’s Beta Firmwares link. The full release notes can be found in ReleaseNotes.txt and changes from -rc13 can be seen below.
Feel free to raise issues found during testing on this discussion or in the new support section in the APM Forum.
It’s a big release with “the onion” restructure and a bunch of new features (including these 57 closed items) so we need to re-test almost everything including all flight modes, all mission commands and all the new features. Marco and I will be maintaining (and adding to) this testing list. Issues reported will first be checked by Jonathan, Marco and I and then confirmed bugs/issues will be put on the github issues list (and then hopefully fixed).
Thanks especially to the beta testers who put their copters at risk testing each release. Enjoy!
Changes from 3.2-rc13
1) Safety Features:
a) fail to arm if second gyro calibration fails (can be disabled with ARMING_CHECK)
2) Bug fixes:
a) DCM-check to require one continuous second of bad heading before triggering LAND
b) I2C bug that could lead to Pixhawk freezing up if I2C bus is noisy
c) reset DCM and EKF gyro bias estimates after gyro calibration (DCM heading could drift after takeoff due to sudden change in gyro values)
d) use primary GPS for LED status (instead of always using first GPS)

Hello
A small task
to use our experimental carrier is with pixhawk 3.2 RC12

Awesome flight test but where's the dog that goes with the leash? Are you planning to use the drone to walk the dog later? LOL
Randy and All,
On the Morning, I have test is Auto Spline Waypoint with 3.2-rc12 is very stable and perfect. And, I have show my video @ below.
Really nice bro!
Here is something that happen to me...
On two different setups, one with genuine pixhawk and the other with a clone.
Using teeny 3.1 on telemetry port 2 for datalink to Taranis on both setup
after update from 3.15 to 3.2 RC12 on the genuine Pixhawk every thing is good.
after update from 3.15 to 3.2 RC12 on the clone, unable to get data, no exchanges between teensy and clone. If revert to 3.15, all is back O.K.
Thank you for any ideas and support with this
and... Keep the good work, it is greatly appreciated.
Mario
Artem,
Do you have the parameter list for the SR0, SR1, SR2? I can't find them documented anywhere... I guessed and set SR2 all the same as SR1, which makes the minimosd happy but have no idea what these parameters actually are... appreciate any docs you can point me to.

Randy / Developers, Absolutely amazing piece of software. Love the new capabilities.
Despite excellent flying qualities, I noticed several odd things today. Keep in mind this is my first flight with anything newer than 3.1.5.
Flying 3.2 RC12 with HKPilot 2.7
Mission Planner 1.3.10 build 1.1.5369.11976
Quad/450
(I understand if i will not get a response for HK hardware, but i swear that i have several 3DR auto pilots, this just happened to be the copter i was willing to loose)
I was switching quite frequently between STABILIZE, ALT HOLD, & POSITION with frequent take offs and landings to do some fine tuning on the PID's. At some point it became impossible to switch to POSITION mode. It was first noticed on the RC transmitter and i confirmed that the PWM was in the proper range for chan 5 out. I noticed that on the mission planner when i went to the "Initial Set up" page / "Flight Modes" the Flight Mode #4 was completly blank. I confirmed that chan 5 is 1588 PWM and Flight Mode #4 is green. I reset Flight Mode #4 to POSITION, with no luck. I am also unable to select POSITION from the Flight Data / ACTIONS page. I have attempted multiple reboots of the autopilot and GSC and have not been able to set POSITION Mode since.
I also ran into this problem on the CLI page. This was problem was present before i had the POSITION problems and i do not think is related, However i am unable to get Chip Logs, but i do have tlogs if interested.
i would like to confirm this. upgrading from RC7/RC10 to RC12 there was no POSHOLD, DROID PLANNER also does not acknowledge Position. Hopefully tis can be a quick fix on both ends
