Hi again guys,Just as the title suggests, I get no pitch correction in my servo when in stabilize mode in my argupilot mega. All in/out connections for the servos and receiver are in the right places, I've tripple checked, the servo works fine when c

Any good introductory material on autopilots, flight control, etc? Not necessary to be UAV-centric, traditional aviation resources would be welcome as well.

I recently purchased the MediaTek GPS, from the DIYDrones store, for my APM board and so far have not been able to get it to respond (as in it will get gps lock but the C light on the oilpan does not light). I am running the APM 1.01 code. I

If i´d like to use QGroundControl, I think I have to compile a other Software for the APM (The mavlink - one) am I right?
If yes, is it developed as fast as the original. Is it possible, there are bugs inside, you removed in the 1.01 Version (Alti

I then modified the code by

As I experiment a little more with APM in my Skyfun, I wonder if there's a suite of attributes we could use to compare airframes and get a good idea of where one airframe performs better over another. Just for starters, example attributes cou
