Hi all.
I'm working on a project, and one of the requirements is to utilize existing technology we have made use of on previous projects. In short, I need to use a Phidget Single Board Computer running Debian Linux.
I want to have MAVlink co

I have recently fitted a gimbal & camera to my Quadcopter (APM 2.5/2.9.1) with a video link. It was just a cheap chinese one similar to this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/261102207365?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

Hi,
So I know that the APM has Magnetometer Calibration(finding the offsets) built into the code but the ArduIMU v3 does not. Does anyone have the link to that snippet of code that calibrates the offsets?
Thanks,

It is archaic in the way you have to access everything, now if i could code i would do something about it but i cannot, so i thought i would post here in the hopes someone e
Hi Folks,
In Radio calibration i am being able to use only two modes, one of which is flight mode 6 which cant be changed from manual. Is there any way, i could make extra flight modes with the transmitter. i use a 9cap transmitter with APM 2.5.

I am having problems with an Xbee900 system where the Tx is interfering with the servos, HK 12G Digital.
The interference is constant and stops if I unplug the Xbee from the APM or if I touch the Tx antenna.
This is on a small plane (X5 ) and so I wo
