Hello guy and gals,
I am currently working on setting up a Hugin 2.2M airplane as my newest addition. I have been fiddling around on E-Calc for about the last three hours trying to figure out the best configuration for this airplane so that it will ac

Has anyone actually managed to get this to work? I can get my hexacopter to trigger via the Remote Control and via right clicking on the map in Mission Planner and saying "take picture" but not during an automatic flight.
I am using GRIDV2 for the fl

My copters runing 3.0.1 (and WP_YAW_BEHAVIOR set to never change) will fly it just fine, but the display in mission planner is a disaster.
In the past,

I try to get the log and want to see the GPS track via Google Earth but I cant find any. I use the APM 2.5 and the latest software. I download all logs via

When Planning a mission with an auto take off, how does one set a pure "take off and rise vertically to desired altitude" command?
AT the moment I can only get the copter to take off and immediately dart off to waypoint 1. Sometimes it is not high e

I would like to use a 433 LRS system with an FPV plane (X8) but the alternative 3DR 900 Mhz telemetry hardware is not permitted in Germany even if you have an Amateur Radio Licence as I do. The 800-1000 Mhz band is widely used by mobile phones and
Read more…Hello.
Does any one know will the 433MHz LRS works well with the APM 2.5 installed nearby? I mean not very close but on the same model.
The reason why I am asking is that I had an issue with the 35MHz standard radio system and APM 2.5 board which is gi
A couple days ago we were talking about redundancy and reliability in the APM:Plane 2.74 thread. I have been thinking about how to add more redundancy without adding too much complexity and cost. I have been thinking about how to safely guide a plane

After some info from someone with experience or knowledge in this area, rather than just hearsay or speculation, please:
If I have two radios, one horisontally and one vertically polarised, I know the interference between them is minimal so you

I recently updated my UGV firmware to ArduRover 2.42 (I cant' remember what I had before) but with the same params, when I get a connection between my GCS

HMC5983 replace HMC5883L temperature compensation triaxial compass
The regular HMC5883L compass has no temperature compensation, is there a benefit to this one for ArduCopter?
Ok, so I know sticking an APM into a TBS Disco is not new, but it's certainly new to me.
However, my starting point is slightly different from the normal route, and would appreciate any advise others may have. Basically, instead of starting with a fl
