Hi
I`m having some trouble with my new build and would be greatfull for some help.
I recently bought the MT3506-25 for a new project and have to say that I`m very pleased with the motors so far.
On a very basic test build I got 11-12g/W@480g trust (3s,

Is it possible to use the jDrones IO Board to power on/off +5V components on your Drone?

Read more…Hi all,
I have had both 433mhz and 915mhz 3dr radios and I'm worried I may be mixing up antennas.
They are all the same size and shape, but some have a red dot sticker and some have a blue dot sticker. Can anyone tell me which is which??
Thanks,
Aaron
Read more…Hi all,
I have a pair of 433mhz 3DR radios. One of them "lost sync" during a firmware upgrade. Now it has the red led on solid whenever it is plugged in, and all attempts to communicate with it fail.
Is there any way to unbrick this radio?
Thanks,
Aaron

I need some help for a project I'm starting. I know most of my questions might be answered among the pile of comments on many of the forums already opened here.
A year ago I started working on detecting and calculating the total area of cloud

I need more current sensors (5) to manage to solar plane. I must to check it on ground station also.
Is it possible?
I did receive a new APM2.5 with its new telemetry cable.
I did try to connect APM2.5 with MissionPlanner with telemetry (XRF or XBee modules), using the same setup I did have with APM2.0. It was working perfect with APM2.0.
But not more able to connect

Maybe this question sound strange, but I need to fly my quadcopter from the computer, not using the TX (Turnigy 9x in my case) or something like the PCTx (that thing dont work very well, very slow).

I have just had my first day of successful Flying on the Bixler2 with the APM2.5+ with Firmware 2.70 on it. Other hardware on the plane was the RFD 900 telemetry, ASI, a 9x5 prop, 3530 out-runner, and an aluminium motor mount.
