Can't get Airspeed Sensor to work with new APM 2 board

Posted by Sydney UAV on December 29, 2011 at 10:25pm

Any thoughts on how to get airspeed sensor to work on new APM 2 board? Are there any known issues?

Just upgraded from older APM, where I've never had any trouble. Sensor is plugged into port A0 as per sketch, RSPD_ENABLE is set to 1, pipes and pitot connected correctly, but no response at all.

Hello,

I am also having problems getting my Airspeed sensor working with APM2.0 hardware! Has anyone had any luck or is still only in the developers build?

thanks

I'm not sure that the airspeed sensor is enabled in the public APM 2 ArduPlane code. It's working on the internal dev versions, but we haven't pushed it live yet. Please give us a week or so.
