Hi!I am working on the control algorithm of quadrotor after its one rotor failure.I am trying to stabilize the quadrotor structure loaded with a trirotor firmware (available in MISSION PLANNER) on APM2.5.Anyone please helo me wether is it possible to

As we are supporting community mapping in Borneo and Papua [Indonesia], we have been able to, so far, use our multirotor [tricopter and quadcopter]. However, the customary forest that we are about to map are way too large to be mapped by mul

After many hours setting up my finwing penguin i had it read to go for the maiden flight.Below are the first attempts by a friend of mine - A very experienced pilot.
What is wrong with this? The plane is using manual mode - it should be working

My 3DR Aero is running the ArduPlane 3.0.2 firmware ('ArduPlane-v2.px4' downloaded from http://firmware.diydrones.com/Plane/2014-05/2014-05-15-12:05/PX4/).
I usually launch in FBWA mode and it takes off fine. However, of late I've had four successi

Has it a comparable meaning ? And what is the mag scale please ? There are many zeros :-)
I think what I am experiencing is called a stall spin. This happened in auto mode while the plane was heading to a WP when the plan starts spinning in a very tight loop and drops altitude. I had the sun in my eyes and could not spot the plane and tha

When I select auto mode my throttle is completely or very completely cut and my plane starts to drop altitude until I am uncomfortable and have to hit manual mode to recover. I have attached my logs and hopefully someone can take a look. I d

I finished my new airframe which is much better suited to the extra hardware required for a UAV than my previous attempt. I was successful launching, flying and landing in manual mode. My goal was to autotune, however I must still have something

Is this possible to activate a servo from a clap on the ground, with a directional microphone orientated to the ground and sensor connected to the apm or to the receiver ?
Thank you.

I'm testing this script with an old !ixus 70.
The CHDK runs perfectly, interval.bas is OK.
When I run The 3DR_shoot on board, connected to the APM, with a Gentle USB2 wire, after few seconds, i have error messages. Nothing happens if it is

Is there anywhere anyone to sell an apm with plugs like servo plugs ?
It would take to also

Read more…I have not flown my finwing penguin yet. In manual mode the elevator moves alot (100% i would say). In FBWA mode the elevator moves about only 30% up and 30 % down compared to Manual mode. Is this expected? The same looks to be true for the ailerons

Reason is that i bought a second telemetry kit for a new plane but the site only had 433 mhz and it would be useful if all my equipment was on the s

I found this topic in "troubleshooting", but the suggestions didn't help.
The plane has been working fine in FBWA, auto, etc., but would only operate in manual mode today. I don't see any errors in HUD or from telemetry logs.
