APM on a Scarab Stealth-Reconn
Before rebuilding a crashed Scarab Stealth-Reconn from Multiwiicopter.com (http://www.multiwiicopter.com/products/stealth-quad-fpv-reconn) and fitting it with my new APM2 board instead of the Paris board I would like to hear if anyone already has tri

Can anybody explain that phenomenon ? After a few years of flying and several craft I have noticed that more often than not my 'R' props break. Can I change directions so I can burn through some of these spare normal props? =]
Why does this happen? I

Hi everyone,
I updated to MP 1.1.73 and Arducopter 2.5.4 this afternoon. My copter is now flying a lot worse. Immediatley wants to yaw left and right and is very jittery. I thought I forgot to load the default para file for a 3DR quad so I went ba

Should APM located in the center of the ship?
By convenience of USB connection and ease of layout on the quad, I always put APM on the side. The orientation is aligned to the direction of the quad. If we need to consider the center piece, Gyro is the one in that position. Is this correct?
Simple Mode
Tried simple mode for the first time today, It was anything but simple LOL.
Take off was fine but as I rotated everything went wrong. I was just in a hover, turned left 90 degrees and expected a push forward on the stick would make it fly away from me

Recommended Turnigy 9x firmware: default, er9x, or gv9x?
I'm just getting my 3DR AC2 up and running with an APM2. I have the ubiquitous Eurgle/FlyMax/Imax/Turnigy 9x R/C transmitter. I know many folks flash the er9x firmware to this transmitter for use with quadcopters. Since the arrival of the new APM2

I've been tuning the octocopter this evening, I started with Stab at 1.000 and Rate at 0.25.
I tuned the rate by hovering then giving sharp stick inputs and watching for the bounce as I release the stick to centre. I turned up Rate P until the bounce

With 2.5 I noticed the RC_Speed parameter was set to 490, is this the ESC update rate via PWM
If this is the case then my Turnigy Plush seem fine, my question is does the low pass filter in the ESC make much difference. That is - although I think I'm
