Every time I try to upload the code to the APM Board I keep getting the following error that occurs on line 294:

I have been trying to but a Tiny2.11 Autopilot from PPZUAV. I have a query to make to them before ordering and have been trying to contact them via email and have not been recieving any response. I am now getting apprehensive about placing my ord

I am trying to create wings for a UAV project I am doing and have limited knowledge of airfoil design. I have attached some renderings and line drawings of my design that is in progress and wanted to know if someone out there had some advice o
Does APM have gyro?
Hi All
I just had (sort of) a successful first flight with the APM. The airplane is flying perfectly stable and navigating to the waypoints really well (in full auto mode) - but the throttle is going to idle - so its gliding really nicely while it f
Read more…Currently in the APM code, the default altitude measurement doesn't appear to use the pressure sensor on the board. Is there good reason for this, such as drift or something? I understand it should be much more accurate than GPS.

Interesting design. Reverse maple leaf propeller spring loaded to switch in to a twin prop flying wing.
VTOL without the landing.
Lack of control surfaces as far as i can tell. Tilt rotor wouldn't be a far stre
Can someone please tell me how to fix this error.

Currently I am doing on the quadcopter project.
Our goal is to have a quadrotor that is less than 1kg.
What is the power connection for the ardupilot mega chip? Do I need to use additional battery to power on the chip(but it will increase the weight).
Read more…hey guys,
i have built an IMU of my own design into my homebrew RC system on a fixed wing airframe.
i am using a MMA7260 accelerometer on an ebay "prototype PCB" along with some rate Gyros for the IMU which is proving quite robust while gliding.

I'm working with IMU3000 though EV_INVARM and I want to receive accelerometer + gyro information when I turn on IMU3000. Board is just sending gyro data:
What's a nice starter kit for getting into Arduino programming? I'm looking for something that can get me going as I figure out more, and that includes enough components "in the box" so I can blink an LED, etc.
Will I need anything extra to control a
Hi,
I have a quick (and proberly stupid) question. I have written some code to read the PWM signal from an rc receiver. See below. As expected the data ranges are from 900 to 2000, or 0.9ms to 2.0ms. I would like to run a loop in the arduino (which co
Hey,
Hey,
Hi guys,
I have experimented with Uavdb2 only a little bit, and am wondering if the attitude that is stored in the first 10 seconds is being relied upon on for the entire flight.
Do the acellerators only determine the default attitude for each flight?
