Hi,
Hi,
We've just received our arduimu v2+, we've got problems to upload the arduino sketch to it.
I am using the APM and the GCS. When I start everything starts up and works, but my Alt is about 235 meters at my home location and the white needle pegs out over the 200 meter mark. Is there anyway to change this or zero out the needle back to 0 whi

I know there are lots of forum discussions elsewhere on the Turnigy/iMax/Flysky Tx but none just for UAV

Has anyone used the mini telemaster before as a UAV platform? How did it perform? Are there any other planes within this price range ($150-240) that are better then the telemaster?

Hi all!
May I know what is the best way to test the XYZ sensors?
The values does seem to be very stable.
Just to confirm, the XY sensors are suppose to be in charge of the yaw and roll?
And Z sensor is in charge of the pitch?
And how do we read the value
A note regards IR cameras .........
The picture above is of the setup i use to test.
All the servo input signal wires are connected to the same row on the breadboard. and connected to ground
the Servo tester is pluged into the control channel to pick MANUAL, FBW and AUTO
