I am having problems programming an AMP2.5 using the ArduPilot-Arduino-1.0.3-gcc-4.8.2-windows IDE that I downloaded from the DIY Drone web site:
http://firmware.diydrones.com/Tools/Arduino/
I have followed the instructions "How to Build ArduPilot with Arduino.pdf" that are posted on the page. I am able to compile the ArduPilot source code from GitHub with no errors but when I try to upload I keep getting the same error:
avrdude: error at C:\Program Files\ArduPilot-Arduino-1.0.3-windows\hardware/tools/avr/etc/avrdude.conf:332: programmer type must be written as "id_type"
I am kind of stumped at this point and I would appreciate any advice.

Best to join us over on discuss. Also best to give up on the AVR boards and move to something more advanced like a Pixhawk or NAVIO2 or something like that.

maybe try this link? avrdude.conf
by the way, few of the ardupilot developers use diydrones anymore. better to look for us over on ardupilot.org. or in particular to post questions in the ardupilot forum.

Hey,
I just had the same problem and tried it with replacing the avrdude config, also with the older version of the ArduPilot-Arduino (4.7.2) but booth didn't work, with the older Arduino I got a simple error without description so I tried it on another win7 computer and it worked! Hope it helps someone. :)
Tried different things for two days so I'm really happy having solved the problem solved so simply!
Ok, I think we have a problem with the installation package then.
I'm pretty sure when Tridge and I first tested the -4.8.2 version of the compiler I hit this problem and we resolved it by replacing the conf file.
Download this file: avrdude.conf
Place it in your Arduino-1.0.3/hardware/tools/avr/etc directory
Sorry for the troubles.
Hi Randy,
I download the file and replace it.But something wrong still happen. I can not download the hex file although the ide will display like that.
avrdude: verifying ...
avrdude: verification error, first mismatch at byte 0x3c001
0x80 != 0xf0
avrdude: verification error; content mismatch
avrdude done. Thank you.
Thank you.
