Currently I have a Pixhawk running what I think is the latest firmware, and trying to set up the minim osd. When I initially connected the 3dr radio to t

A little confused on setup.
1) Can I run Helicopter mode H1 on the my transmitter?
I like the menu options with Helicopter mode on my transmitter rather than Airplane mode.

We are having temperatures here as high as 45°C and lows around 28°C. This makes me wonder about what's the high temperature threshold of APM & Pixhawk or any other FCs like naza or multiWii?
Will it be safe for FC, ESC and motor to fly in such hot

I'm researching into my first quad. One thing that is very improtant for me is the autopilot capacity (will be used for research). I was set on the 3DR X8, when I saw the Turbo Ace Matrix. It seems to check all the boxes...except for the
