Ok, I am still having problems with setting up my copter....
All has been going ok...
I've set up most of it to be ready for Auto Tune in the air.... But.....
I had to re-install Mission planner and when I did so from the Ardupilot site, nothing worked....
Then, I did a search for old versions and found this site...
http://firmware.ardupilot.org/Tools/MissionPlanner/
I then loaded version 1.3.31 and bingo! All good again... Agh! if only....
One thing I remember from the last time I did anything was a function that I could set Auto-tune to only do roll or pitch tuning but I can't find it???
In any higher versions than 1.3.31, I don't have any drop downs or parameter list options...???
Can anyone advise on this please?

WINNER!!!!
Oh boy.....
Ok, here it is....
I came home and gave it one more go on Mission Planner... No go!
I downloaded QgroundControl and tried that... I got a message saying "Error on link\\.\COMM. Error connecting: Could not creat port. No such file or directory"
Then I took the SD card and tried to read that on my Laptop... That told me it needed formatting... I was sure I should see a directory or something???
So, I put another card into the Pix' and plugged it into QGround.... no connection.... I then (out of frustration) pulled the lead in and out a few times and it connected!
Yee-Hah! It seems to be working....
Only now it will only run on my wifes Laptop (Windows 7).....
No problems.... Lol....
Hi again folks....
I found an old video of mine (not my usual account) of when I first got my Pixhawk I had this problem but I can't remember what the cure was....

It's now doing this so any advice at all would be great.....
I seem to remember something about taking the SD card out, Loading the FW directly onto that and putting it back into the Pix'???
Maybe I'm way off there???
Please help??? I wanna fly!
Ok, Things are getting worse!
Now I think I've bricked my Pix! Grrr!!!!!!!
I was trying to up-date the FW to 3.3.3 and it wasn't going through....
Time out I think but now I have to system light! I think that's it.... the big bright LED just behind the arrow....
Can anyone please advise????
The function I'm looking for (apart fro, all of them) is AUTOTUNE_BITMASK.
I know this will help me out but like I said...
For some reason, I have no options???
I connect to MP, all looks right until I go to change anything.... all of the drop-downs and parameter lists are blank????
Please advise???
