I'm interested in tweaking APM code to suit tilt rotor technology. I've seen guys use ArduCopter to tilt rotors through small angles and then rely on fixed aerodynamic surfaces to get additional lift and forward speed. Only catch is t

i have a Walkera G-3D Gimbal, and i am really not satisfied with the results. No way to tune PID values, and a pretty bad stabilizing...

I have a problem after updating AC to 3.2.1 from 3.1.5.
When in Loiter, the the speed of the motors rev up and down/pulsate quite rapidly. This was working fine when I was using previous versions of arducopter.
I have downloaded the logs, and have l

I recently suffered minor damage in a crash when I lost control over my hexa. I was about 10ft away from the hexa at takeoff and lost control when it was probably 25ft away. I know the rece
Hello,
I'm planning to attach a bigger camera (than a GoPro) to my Tarot 2-axis brushless gimbal. My other camera is heavier and I will be attaching a backplate so that it can fit into the Tarot's holding mechanism (minus the blue front attachment).
