I am currently running a pixhawk on Arduplane version 3.3.0beta2 and have just setup a new plane. I did all the basic tuning and have the plane flying very well in FBWA, airspeed sensor calibrated, min and max speeds set, and would like to start tuni
In the Optional Hardware>Camera Gimbal setup window I have RC9 in the tilt (I'm assuming that's the Aux Out 1 of the PixHawk) and it works, but how do set another Aux Out in the Pan drop down?
As part of my work to fix the RC Map problem for AC3.3, it makes sense to fix the Tricopter tail servo problems at the same time. The timing on this work is really tight as we're down to the wire to make it into AC3.3. Unfortunately I don't have a
I have set up my RSSI output pin to 1 in Mission Planner and set the Minim to raw RSSI signal.
There is a reading but it isn't constant. It 'scrolls' from a maximum of about 135 through to a minimum of 3. and switching off the Tx has little effect. An
I bought an IRIS+ that had everything wrong with it, I’m not kidding, EVERYTHING.
Tall legs didn’t fit, Radio had no communication with the vehicle, no telemetry, no flight data, couldn’t arm the motors, and when I finally got them to arm, I could dis
The HIL simulation using APM 2.5 was working great. However today I updated the mission planner to the latest version ( 1.3.25) and it does not work anymore. I switch back to the previous version ( 1.3.17) I was using, and it works fine. So it appea
I am trying to understand the command sent by MP when doing a "go to" from map. I am connected to SITL via MAVPROXY, and am capturing the command packets via Wireshark.
I need to do high voltage power line inspection and I'm afraid to use loiter any closer than 20m. Although I use Zubax GNSS which is shielded, the problem is the Pixhawk shield. Can someone experienced suggest a proper way how to shied (protect
I am running the Auto Analysis of my DataFlash logs in Mission Planner. I keep failing the PM Test. The line reads something like "Test: PM = FAIL - 18 slow loop lines found, max 10.4% on line 20084". Can someone tell me what the PM test is measuring
Hey everyone, as some of you may know, we have developed and are bringing to market a fully waterproof drone with FPV and a waterproof gimbal among other features. We recently completed a successful crowd funding campaign and I'm happy to report that
I tried a ROI mission test and all went well. My gimbal tracked the target fairly well. I think my camera pitch might be off a few degrees but I am very pleased. A big THANK YOU to all the developers that have made this possible. If you watch the
Short story: Everything was working fine, for a few months, until I connected the APM via usb to my laptop to change some parameters. I did not connect anymore, under any circumstances.
I am writing a MAVLINK parser for a specific application, and am testing it with SITL, For the most part it works, but I am noticing some CRC mismatches. They seem to be related to Message IDs that don't have a corresponding entry in the MESSAG
I’ve built a couple of quads using Crius AIO Pro flight controllers with ArduCopter 3.0.1 R4 firmware and they work well. Now I’ve built one with an APM 2.6 clone and although it flies OK in STABILIZE mode it does not hold its position in LOITER. The
Do not attempt to fly AC3.3 until you hear otherwise from me. I have not even bench tested it yet, let alone test flown it. There are quite a lot of changes that have gone in that could be crash-o-matic for helicopters.
