Correct me if I'm wrong, but if I have only ESCs connected to the APM2 and I remove JP1 then I connect power to the ESCs then the AMP2 should not turn on.
JP1 stops the 5v power from the Output rail from powering the APM2. Therefore, if JP1 is r
I don't know if it's related, but the latest java update today seems to have caused a major problem with Arduino. I had an auto java update today and installed it. Later I started Arduino 1.0_relax and every thing was fine until I compiled a sketch t
I just mounted my SK450 frame on a XproHeli landing gear platform with camera mount. I'm going to make a wight that weighs as much as a gopro, mount it and test. I figured I should see if I crash first with some dead weight.
I have a new aircraft with APM 2 , xbee etc. and the construction (foam and EPS) and the size dictates that the APM2 and other equipment will be located in hollowed out sections of the foam wing core which is then sheeted. I know the GPS works well
Hi have a question, Is possible fusion all sensor IMU + GPS + Barometer with kalman filter to estimate and compensate drift of GPS for have a precise altitude , precise velocity, and precise position of multicopter ? Are there a algorithms o code
What's the process for updating the MinimOSD? I want to be able to upgrade to 2.6 on my APM, but I don't want to lose my OSD... and I can't for the live of me work out, nor find instructions on how to update the MinimOSD.

Just purchased a set of these modules off of ebay for cheap. Starting to delve into setting up my own means of communication. Been using xbees', but I want to learn how to configure other low cost modules to the APM2. . Wandering if anyone has
As I read the instruction of Mini OSD, it only can monitor 3S voltage. However, there as many guys used 4s-6s lipo on their copter, I am using 4S as well. Could the Mini OSD monitor this voltage?
Dear all, I've built an hexacopter with APM1, during my first flight I've realized the hexa was going backward, even if there were no wind at all, what could be? (I've done the level procedure)
Second issue, I've uploaded the latest firmware and had s
Hello all,Thinking of things to do with the grand kids, DIY drone sounds like a lot of fun. I've been studying the past few days and have decided to go with a simple plane to begin with. Will go th RC route first then add controller for UAV capabilit
If you're like me, while you're flying you tend to stick close to your ground station running Mission Planner so you can hear the voice updates. It's nice to know which waypoint you're currently heading to for example.
