Ok, so I do believe that I have followed everything as to what to do to set up the tracker as per here
http://vps.oborne.me/gcs/Tracker.html
and when I decided to connect from mission planer I get this message (Bad user input, Input string was not in a correct format) tried both ports and all the different baud rates..
I don't know, I'm lost please help
thanks Jesse

Bad user input, Input string was not in a correct format
So I did some research on this Error and this appears to be a code error. So I tried to reload the firmware and went through all the Steps on my Maestro with 0 results. Grrrrrrrr!!! Do I have a bad Maestro? Has anyone ever had this error?
Michael thanks for chiming in. on my matter..
bad input string means you entered an invalid number in one of the box's
ok so this is what I have
Pan angle 180 , PWM range is 349.25 , center is 1480
Tilt angle 90 , PMW range is 528 , Center is 1424
trim is set to 0 on both and
Maestro is selected at com 17 with baud 9600
remove the .25 from pwm range.
Got any good threads on setup and use. I've been testing the tracker using telemetry files and it doe sent seem to be to accurate (it's a bit hard to explain)
I'm wondering if I need to set my zero position mechanical closer to 1500 PMW. Or will that make any difference.
Also while testing the tracker it seems that Tilt stays at a 45 degree when the aircraft is setting on the ground.
Humm.. no answers am I in the wrong form?
make sure you select the correct comport
Doe sent seem to make a difference either way.
