Is there a place to look at the changes in the latest release? I often get the update notice, but always wonder just what's changing.
Short of that, is there a check-in comment stream on the source code?
Thanks

I did it! I've got a perfect rock solid loiter even in 13mph gust winds! My 2200 lipo apparently only gets me 3 minute stable flights. Sure the motors will spin and I can fly for the next 2 minutes, but yaw, pitch and roll would drift. The first

In MP, all I see is 0 current consumption, no matter how much load I put on the circuit. When I use a DMM to measure the signal coming from the

I have read many articles regarding using the UART0/2 or UART0 to connect the GCS. I have tried "everything" to get communication on these ports with no luck.
Right now i'm connecting a serial cable directly from my computer to the APM2 board. No x

I was wondering if it would be possible to replace the xbee with a drone-cell to send telemetry?
Could it even replace the 2.4GHz radio?
Obviously just texting messages is not a solution.
If data is routed through the internet, it could lead

I was wondering if any of you have the Turnigy 9ch ? Are you running the stock throttle curve parameters or did you make any custom changes ? Also I've been following the directions on how to configure the stock version 2 firmware for 6 flig

i want to share my results about compensation of unwanted magnetic effects such as hard-iron, soft-iron and scaling/calibration effects.

I noticed that when building ardupilot-mega, there are some differences in what AVR tools (compiler, linker, etc.) are used depending on which platform you're on:
Under OS X and Windows, it uses the tools that are packaged with the Ardunio software.
