My APM does not hold altitude in FBWB and does not rise to 100 metres in RTL (in fact it Falls in altitude in both cases). See attached TLog and param file.
RTL Location in Tlog Attached : 49% - 56% -: You can clearly see the altitude go from 50 metre

Read more…Hey guys,
I just want to share this to help prevent any possible future crashes. I've tried several GPS units for my planes, namely 3DR, Jdrones NEO-6 for airplane and for Multirotor, hobbyking neo-6, hobbyking leah-6H, and crius.
Non 3DR GPS units al

Can this be done with a "y" connector? Or is there some other way to use both?
Currently I set the comp

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

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 :-)

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.

Is there anywhere anyone to sell an apm with plugs like servo plugs ?
