Hi,
does anyone have working PID setting for the fibreglass frame from Jakub?

Kind regards,
Florian

Guys,
I just maidened my Skywalker with APM and it performed waay better that what I expected. I say we have a winner in ArduPilot Mega. My flight modes are the default (MANUAL, STAB and RTL). I kept on reading that one can "nudge" the APM to fly in
