Since I updated to 1.2.36 I can no longer down load data logs from the APM board.
The log screen does not show any any log entries, even though terminal setup log entry said logs were in flash memory.
If I load an older version of Mission Planner the f

I thought to get a new forum rolling for this topic. People have touched upon it in some forums.
Discussions:

I just got new PX4 and PX4IO kit. I don't have PPM Sum reciver yet, so i wanna make some test on PX4 and i got strange problem.
I'm at my wits end here. I've put out 4 posts for help in the forums and no one has responded. I've written 2 developers and no response. I will literally pay someone $20 if they will take the time to help me understand what I'm doing wrong.

is it possible to use a spare RC-channel to modify parameters in Arduplane? Like e.g. CH5 to set the loiter radius or something like that? That would be very useful for any number of applications.

While testing some auto flight missions I 'discovered' the actions tab in the flight data screen. I realize that this is used for inflight commands such as RTL for a quad that deviates from the flight plan and needs to return to launch. I sa
