Thanks tridge for the fix, I had problems yesterday with stabilize, updating now.

@Martin Bellomo: I have done several successfullauto takeoffs on sunday with V. 2.64.

Wow !!

Release RUSH ! Faster than tests, I haven´t enough good days for testing so many soft versions.

I have one question Andrew... Do you test Auto Take Off... Is it fixed now ? My last Auto Take off ends in a crash.

When APM ends ATO and change to next waypoint cut off engine and turns to next waypoint and looses too much altitude, In may last flight my elevator horn fails. I had enough elevator to flight straight and climb, but the airplane looses too much altitude and ends diving fast so with reduced elevator capability APM wasn´t able to recover.

ATO is critical for my project.

Thanks for your dedication, APM is great !

Hello Andrew,

Thank you very much for you quick support!

I was looking in the function "send_extended_status1" and found this:

uint16_t battery_current = -1;
uint8_t battery_remaining = -1;

Two negative values in unsigned integers. Is this on purpose?

Also found this:

battery_remaining = 150;

This is not a problem by itself but when sent in "mavlink_msg_sys_status_send", the battery_remaining field is defined as int8_t , which will cause an overflow. Thanks in advance!

Hi Andrew,

Good on you! I'm trying to use do_set_parameter , do_repeat_servo and do_mount_control commands in MP1.2.12 as well as the older versions which seems non of them are working! Can you please advise...

Cheers, Aami

Don't be so hard on yourself...we appreciate your work no matter how brown-paper-baggy it may get on the odd occasion.
