Any I2C Pins on APM ?
Is Analog Pin 4 (Port PC4) for I2C SDA?
Analog Pin 5 (Port PC5) for I2C SCL ?
Lastly is Port PD1 for I2C SDA?
and Port PD0 for I2C SCL ?

but i'm thinking of transmitting the altitude data to ground using my own transmitter and microprocessor.
is the telemetry port spitting out altitude data ?
at what form ? or what qualifiers can i use to 'catch' t

I try to find a alternative for xtreambee board.
I use a Ardupilot mega with a IMU Shield/OilPan Rev-H V1.0.
My question is, can i use this board

Good day,
I'm having trouble setting the PID settings due to our ArduCopter Configurator not connecting to the APM. I've tried the settings provided in the wiki on setting/connecting.
We can see the status going to Reading Flight Data but the ellipses
