Yesterday I updated Mission Planner and loaded up build 39 onto the APM. This is what I observed after a full erase/setup (I have sonar and mag) -Did an initial test on the sonar to see what the new values would be by having the motors running on low

I just want to say I had the best flying experience earlier. Waypoints / Auto worked like a charm!
See my attached flight logs. Unfortunately no video this time, I had limited time.
The platform is a Radian Pro.

I would like to ask anyone here if somebody has successfully used a 900mhz FPV system on an APM-equipped Skywalker or any other plane. I had my SW with APM for a while and it flew great on manual, stabilized and RTL. I don't have any Xbee m

I recently switched to Xbees from USB comms with my APM.
I had to use X-Xtu to get them talking, and all is working 100% on the testbench.
Mavlink now connects much faster than usb.
Went to the field today and had some problem getting them to c

I am using my APM on my trusty Skywalker and decided to install a 900mhz FPV system on the plane this morning. When I flew it LOS for about 30 seconds with a buddy on on the goggles, the SW started acting weird until I lost control of it, nos
