Hi,
I launched today the mission planner that started an auto update. It starts downloading files updates (as visible in the console window) but after 2 minutes it stops with error, giving this display and error message:
Has anyone had the same error.

When disconnected the ESC produces 4.96V - Is this voltage drop expected ?
My only concern in that there is 4.64 volts supplied to the RX where the specs say the

With a plane do I have to set my last way point as RTL or will it do it automatically if the last way point is a regular way point?

I wonder if if would be hard to add a reliable crash detector to APM? Something that detects that the aircraft is stuck in the terrain or a tree or whatever. It would be nice to have, as it would enable shutting down the motors, preventing them fr

in Europe, the 868MHz band is dedicated for remote control and telemetry applications and it's by far not as crowded as the 433MHz band. Depending on the duty cycle, also higher TX power is possible.
As HopeRF is offering also 868MHz radios, I woul
