I'm using arduplane 2.40 trying to get the camera tracking/stabilizing working.
It seems to randomly respond to pitch and roll movements and violently move to an extreme and then stay in the position regardless of the tilt of the aircraft.
Any suggesti

Hello,
Please could someone tell me, how would an APM2 respond if the motor failed. Would the autopilot attempt to maintain the altitude and stall the aircraft, or would this be detected and the aircraft would glide to the ground?

I have a stock Gaui 330X-S. I have calibrated the ESC and it works a treat. I will soon be removing the stock gyro and replacing it with an APM 2.0. My question is, do I have to recalibrate the ESC's once I've put the APM on?
