Was testing APM again today.
Needed my plane to loiter with a radius as small as possible.
Set it to loiter at 10m height and 10m radius in Mission Planner.
Managed to loiter at 10m altitude, but the loiter radius was observably larger than 10m

@Jason: im not sure if 55 is tuned for the 3DR.

While waiting for an assembled A/P Mega to arrive, I downloaded and extracted the APM software - opened it and searched on but could not find the directed ArdupilotMegaPlanner.exe file. I did find a file named ArdupilotMegaPlanner.exe.config but

All power to the APM is lost and so is your craft.
Even if you use a stand alone BEC, you suffer from the same problem.

Things are fine with the old combination of arduplane 2.24/ APM planner 1.0.88
With arduplane 2.26/ apmplanner 1.1.1 or .2, I can't get throttle settings to work.
Have gone through reflash/reconfig cycle a couple of times and always the same.
