Hello,
I release a new firmware for Turnigy 9x,
You can use telemetry from APM (watching battery voltage and GPS informations).
You can tune major value of PID (not all).
And the last you can change flight mod via Mavlink or PPM chanel.

I think there is a pitch inversion inside all motors_xxxx.pde files. (tested with 2.0.44 after full eeprom erase).
For example for Quad X we have :

Has anyone tried both the Contour 1080p and the GoPro HD hero? It seems like everyone is using GoPros and I havent seen much mention of Contour cameras.
The Countour, has a rotatable lens and slightly more streamlined shape seems like it would be pre

I have do some test with the Apm Planner and I have seen that My airpressure sensor repsond with different value on consecutive test (+- 10 MT).
It is normal ?
It's possibile to calibrate the sensor ?
