Hi there,
I am using Ardupilot with XY sensors from FMA Copilot. I do not use a Z sensor. I mention that throttle is controlled directly from receiver (Ardupilotdoes not control throttle). I have shield V2 installed but I selected not to use airspeed
Easystar noob here.. After upgrading my ESC to extended-length motor leads, I'm trying to tuck these three 16ga silicone wires into the Easystar fuse before gluing. The existing channel is not deep enough to hold them.. maybe two at the most.

Hi there,
I'm reviewing the code whilst finishing off on the last details on the APM (voltage monitor, xbee connection, etc.) . I noticed that the APM makes rather heavy use of the eeprom also in flight.
From what I gather, the eeprom is written to a
Hi all. It seems you have some experience with this Easystar platform..
I'm building one just for ArduPilot, and starting with brushless..
I have a Castle Phoenix-25 and Meag ACn 16/15/4 (2200kV) motor.
I ran an APC 6x4 Electric Pusher prop on the benc

Hallo,
i play with idea to equip my airframe with ardupilot but i need to control ailerons by two separate channels. Is there any ardupilot modification with such feature?
In description i saw only one channel for ailerons ;o(
Please tell me where the different props should be mounted.
Should the push props be forward and back or left and right?
Thanks

can somebody post additional photos of the Skywalker building, would be nice to see where
all the boards where mounted, the gps, xbee, receiver, video etc etc.
I've been looking at the existing pages, but there are not many details
Thank you.
Hello!
People, I want to developed a UAV, but first, I want understand and make same experience in ground of course... I want to move a servo in arduino by joystick. I know, we dont use Arduino, but is similar, so, I think thats ok to help me. I want
Hi all
I have a SF 9DOF Razor IMU with the supplied SF firmware connected and talking to my PC via a FTDI card and USB cable. I tried a Bluetooth link but the supply of data to Python was not consistent causing Python to lock up. I have tinkered with

For a first-time user is it 'best' to use the latest? Or should I start with a tried-and-true version that may not have the latest add on?

I'm getting ready to run some of the individual tests in the Test Suite and had a couple questions before I actually start.
My configuaration is as follows:
ArduPilot code 2.6.2
Shield V2
Ublox
X,Y & Z sensors
The manual online states the following:

Read more…I am wondering how much Elapor the MediaTek will function through (if at all)?
My Garmin eTrex Vista still gets signal inside the easystar but I cannot see if the MediaTek is :D
So i know i need Arduino IDE, but when i downloaded it (2x) its all just reference?
When I connect my PC to the APM and run the Arduino interface, I open the current version via my sketchbook (updated thru SVN) and I see all the tabs ready to change and upload. My question is, do I always overright the previous settings or is there
Read more…What is the main difference in terms of capabilities between these two? The ArduPilot Mega recommends one of these two. I ask this because the uBlox is more the twice the cost of the MediaTek GPS module.
