First of all, to give you a little run-down on my situation... I work on an oil rig and I have been playing around building and testing my APMega after hours. I haven't been able to test GPS yet as there are restrictions on the use of e

Once again thank you HK!
Trying out the 2.01 APM with HK GCS v1.2.43
I am probably missing something or possibly this is not working due to the APM being BETA.
The GCS is only displaying the voltage of one cell. 4.13v
The proper voltage(s) are displa

Two Saturdays ago I spent the afternoon assembling and configuring my first arducopter - yay (all stock - frame, motors, ESCs, boards, Turnigy 9x radio). I was surprised at how quickly it all came together (approximate build/soldering time 2-3 hours

I'm hoping someone has seen this problem... With all the ESCs plugged into the APM, this one ESC starts up at zero throttle. All the others start running when throttle is applied as one would expect. I've switched the ESC to a different por

I'm building a Quad from sketch.
My goals are-
it needs to be stable,
it needs to carry a heavy DSLR
therefore i will go BIG. say around 80-100CM.
I'd like to get guidelines for choosing the motors.
rather higher or lower KV/(rpm/v) ?
small propellers
