When looking agt the plane from behind and rolling it clockwise, should the rollangle values be positive or negative? I have some problem setting up the plane to turn in the right direction...

So I am planning on using the ArduIMU(flat) and still want to use the airspeed sensor. I don't want to buy the shield. I can't seem to find anything on just using a stand alone airspeed sensor with the ArduPilot. I'm sure it can be done since the

I am trying to interface an ArduPilot Shield V2 with an ArduPilot mega and am having a bit of confusion as to which pins I need to tap into on the Shield. All I need to utilize right now is the airspeed sensor, which I believe has its analog

Just wanted to confirm which would be the correct airspeed sensor to use with APM.
I have been looking at this one in the store http://store.diydrones.com/product_p/br-0004-03.htm will this work ok with the APM?
Thanks,
Mark
Does anyone have some instructions/advices on soldering this GPS (http://store.diydrones.com/product_p/mt3329-01.htm) on the Adapter (http://store.diydrones.com/product_p/br-0014-01.htm).
Sorry if it's a trivial question, but I got none electronics kn
I was trying to cal my ESC's. having a hard time because the ESC's are powering the board. So I thought to myself (never a good idea ) why not run power to it directly. I had a servo wire lying around so I put +V to the red and -V to the black. plug

Has anyone already written a code to only control the speed for the Ardupilot with his shield expansion kit with airspeed sensor without GPS.
I would like used this function for fpv.
Thank you.

I have tried to update AP sources, and found that revision 1232 introduces strange throttle behavior:
when I switch to satbilze or fbw_a mode, motor spins with full speed (disregard throttle stick position).
It works fine in manual mode though (i.e.

Hi folks,
Finally getting round to doing something in the UAV world, so this weekend I hooked-up an EM406 GPS to my Parallax Propeller.
Once I'd got the coding right for N/S & E/W hemispheres (!) I stuck it in my garden to collect some data. Whoa! I wa
Hi folks,
I've been flying heli's for several years, but thought I'd see what these "planks" are like, so I bought an EasyStar.
Having finally built the thing; checked it's CoG, and got the radio set-up, I took it to the field. I'd say the breeze was f
Hello, can someone tell me which sensor is read by which analog pin in the ADC section of the ArduIMU code?
i'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but i'm new to microcontrollers and programming in general. After getting the stock devboard flying, I wanted to have dynamic retasking capabilities, which I added. My only problem was that this took up an ex

Hi,
Yesterday I put my new APM and IMU shield together and would like to now make sure that I did not destroy them in the process. I found a couple of tests in the repository and these seem to be fine (haven't tested the GPS yet).
