Hi all,
I need an airspeed sensor for my PX4. According to the documentation, this is an analogue sensor (same as APM), however it needs a funny DF13-3S-1.25C connector. Not the usual PCB header APM uses.
Does anyone know where to get either:
I have a custom build that I'm still working on and tuning, but it is in a very flyable state currently. Using ArduPilot 2.5 board and running 3.1 software. I used Autotune feature to dial it in pretty tight.
One thing that I've noticed as of recentl

I'm trying to fly my quad with loiter mode with its default setting. It can't stay at the position and tends to increase its speed and went out of control. Do I need to tune my PID in order to achieve a stable loiter flight mode? Please advi
