Hey guys,

With a lot of help from Chris I was able to get Ardupilot 2.5.4 loaded onto my board today.

Once loaded, I came accross my next 2 issues.

Issue 1:

The flight modes.  I wanted to test if changing the all the  flight mode descriptions in the header file to "manual" that it would indeed give me manual control over over the plane in each mode. However, with all three modes set to manual, I was only able to control the plane in manual position 1. I had no control over the plane in positions 2 and 3.

Issue 2:

Random flight changes. Regardless of what flight modes are set to positions 2 and 3 (position 1 was kept as manual) there is random flight mode changes when the transmitter is set to position 2 (red mux light on and green mode light on).

I hooked the FTDI cable up and watched the incoming data on hyperterminal, take a look at what was happening on the attached file.
