Hi,
Has anyone else experienced a motor spinning up ( or a servo glitching ) whileuploading new code to the APM
I totally understand that while code is being uploaded the system is in aunknown state so i should expect the un-expected from the APM outputs and thatthe idea setup would be with all APM outputs disconnected while uploading newcode, but this is not always practical, particularly in the field while wantingto test various code versions.
I have purchase a 4-way switch to isolate the ESCs signal wires while uploadingcode.
Part of the reason for this post was to a) see if anyone has had thisexperience and b) get a warning put on the wiki because this random behaviourcould end up hurting someone. Nearly gave me a heart attack the first time itoccurred ;-)
