The APM/ Arducopter source code comes with LGPL (Less General Public License) with it. I am talking about both ArduPilot source code (i.e. ArduPlane, ArduCopter,etc) and Mission Planner source code.
Does this mean the source code can be 'freely

During an Auto flight mode (with hovering on a fix position), it crashs down uncontrolable from 80m altitude. I did repeat this mission many times before, never such problem.

Installed APM 1.2.45, now getting this error.
Tried going back to previous version, but no dice.
Uninstalled, but that gives me this error on install, and still have the previous error on startup.
I mistakenly ordered a 4S instead of a 3S battery. Given the time it took to come, I am inclined to just keep it.I have a couple of quads that I run on 3S and on which the motors are rated for 3S. Would I be buying trouble if I tried running one on t

I wonder what your opinions are on this vibe graph? Strangely it's at -10, but deviation seems to be 1-2 points in maneuvering flight. What would be a good result?

A couple days ago I replaces two arms, one attached to motor 2 and the other to motor 4. Now when I lift off the ground in GPS mode it slowly turns (as if I'm applying rudder) clockwise. If I push the rudder left about 20% to compensate and hold it t

Has anyone experimented with having Altitude Hold always on? What I would like to accomplish is that the APM2.5 knows that the center position of the left stick (I fly mode 2) means "hold altitude" and that the spring is active in the throttle
