Dear GPS / SW wizzards,
i have just seen a few nice things in the datasheet of the currently-used mediatek GPS:
The MEDIATEK-3329 seems to support
SBAS (Satellite_Based_Augmentation_Systems): WAAS, EGNOS,MSAS ,GAGAN Supported(Default: Enable)
Is this als

Hi folks,
Has anyone had any trouble with APM2 taking 5+ minutes to get a GPS lock when used with a Frsky 2-way telemetry receiver?

Hello,
Iam just getting to grips with ApmPlanner (v1.1.92) together with an APMv2.0 and run into a problem.
I set up a simple mission to fly to waypoints, loiter for 40seconds and then onto the next.
My problem is, when i switch to 'Auto' mode, my plane

If I put 4 of these in series I'll get 10,8V 750F capacitor. How many mAh's would this give (if compared to 11.1 V LiPo battery)? Do you find any reasonable usage for this kind of capacitor? What do you think?
One cell:
Capacitance: 3000.0

Hey guys, this is mainly a question for our friends at 3DR, but anyone who has looked at the traces on the APM2 daughterboard, and knows the GPS module, could offer ideas.
I wonder what you'd think about (as a hack, as a revisio

I've just released ArduPlane 2.40-beta. The jump in version number reflects the size of some of the changes.
Unfortunately (due to ill health) I have not actually flight tested this release. I normally try to flight test every release, but I pr
