Hi everybody
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

I got a APM 2.5 and i'm asking me a question. What's happen if i cut off my radio. Indeed in this case, i set directly in my frsky Tx a failsafe which set the APM software in RTL mode!
But is it a good idea? What's happen if no gps fix?
Thanks
