Today I flew again my quadcopter after 6 months of getting new parts from another crash (also due to an undetermined cause) in January.
The drone I flew today had new battery, new and better motors, better propellers, higher end ESCs,

This is my first post on a forum so I'm sorry, in advance, if I make a mistake.
I'm flying a 3DR quadcopter frame with a apm 2.5. When I first got it, it was used and I powered the board from the usb and the power rail and blew the 3.3v regulator

I'm Planning to do mapping with my quad running on Arducopter 3.2.1 . I want APM to log the Cam messages that get triggered with respect to the distance travelled. I tried editing the bits of the Log_Bitmask. But noway i was able to log the CAM messa

For my surveying X6 I will use the Pixhawk with APM and Seagull #REC triggered from the flight controller.
In this way the Pixhawk will tell to my Sony camera when to shoot.
Is there a way to auto-save a trigger log and add these informations to

This would have been okay

I've recently started to learn about altitude hold using barometer and acceleration values. I've found simple kalman filters codes, but I've read that extended kalman filter is more usefull and precise for this kind of use.

I've looked on google to findout differences between this two firmwares: APM Flight Stack and the native PX4 Flight Stack used with quadcopters. I've read that either use EKF filtering and some of PX4 libraries are getted from APM when compili

Either directly or indirectly, I need a way to know what the health of a gas engine (temperature, RPM, etc).
Here are some possible ways I can think of.
