This is a discussion to focus the feedback and support of ardupilot on the PixRacer board from AUAV.co.
We believe that all teething problems encountered are now resolved and so we recommend people load Copter-3.3.4 which is available for all multicopters through the Mission Planner's (and other GCS's) Install Firmware screens. Note that because regular Pixhawks are still on Copter-3.3.3 the install icon may show Copter-3.3.3 but rest assured, Copter-3.3.4 will be installed (you can check the version by looking at the very top of the Mission Planner).

I have it on a 150 micro quad so I'm sure you will be okay for now, both are pretty small, almost as small as a satellite :-D
I actually like the lemon rx a lot that I sent you, great range, I use it on my vortex

I have used px4 with your fix and no problem but our testing is wanting to use apm with spectrum sat. Rx

this is only a problem on the new r14 boards. What code version is working for apm rc input on r14 pixracers.

Hello,
Thank you for your work.
Don't hesitate to ask if you want a tester.
Have a nice day. ;)
I posted a few weeks ago about my ASCP4 current reading not working properly..
AUAV gave me an RMA and I have a new one now, and it still doesn't work....
When I'm only drawing about 500ma, I have to set the volts/amps to about 200 to get a proper reading.
Someone said 36.3636 is what it should be.
When it is set to 36.3636 low power consumption doesn't read at all, until I get to about 2 amps. Then I get a reading and it is correct in the 3amp range. . But then as I throttle up and get a real world reading of 5 amps, MP is showing me over 7 amps.
So the scale is wrong.. or the curve.. like linear vs expo or something.. I have no idea, but it's not working.
Are others having this problem w/ APM
I see that now an ACSP5 power module is available. How do I order one of those since I really don't need the ACSP4.
Is it also possible to have a 3DR radio cable made since I really don't want to fly with a WiFi board. I know the WiFi is much smaller than a Radio but for me a Bluetooth module would have made more sense.
3DR radio cable is included (JST-GH 6 Pin > DF 13 6 Pin), or available @ AUAV.co for a bargain price. I connected mine with it . (The case of the 3DR air module V2 is stripped, a 3DR IRIS leftover)
I see no mention of a Telemetry cable except the individual one. The only other one is a GPS cable which I used to, wait for it, connect my 3DR GPS.
I also see where I can order the ACSP5 power module as well.
Sorry , didn´t realize, that you´re new. The so called GPS cable for 3DR GPS+MAG can be used for latest 3DR telemetry as well. Same pinout. Works right away.
So if you need two, just order a second one. If you want to operate with RTS/CTS as well (not really needed.), just pull the two wires of the DF13(4) and put em straight into the empty DF13(6) chambers. You can do this with a needle to lift the DF13 locks as Phil mentioned earlier. http://www.auav.co/category-s/106.htm Here´s the cable you need:
Is there a blog for PixRacer questions? I have a bunch.
1. The 3DR radio cable plug is too small so what do I use.
2. I see no power or voltage output so what is the setting to turn that on.
3. I have an X8R with RSSI so I plugged that black cable In but have no RSSI data
4. All at once ESC calibration causes the PixRacer to lock up.
5. SBus sometimes does not work for 3 to 5 minutes after power up.
6. It's confusing to know which way to plug in the ESC cable. Pixhawk was White down, PixRacer is White up.
7. Safety switch does not work.
8. How do you mount the buzzer.
9. How do you mount the safety switch when the mounting hole is smaller than the connector that goes through it.
10. I want to set CH6 output as a relay pin so how do that.
