Hi guys! We're programming our APM 2.5. We have already calibrated the radio, but when all seems to be ok to fly, and we connect all the wires and plug the battery in, I move the throttle and it doesn't work. While it is connected to the Mission Plan
Read more…I'm looking for a little help with tuning my Quadcopter. It's a little too big to tune while holding (or suspended in a jig) so I've had to resort to tuning it in the air. I'm new to this whole process and have been having a really hard time gettin
Read more…Greeting all,
When I push the rudder, I can saw my quad will wobble.
I believe this is due to low KV motor.
I already try tune Stabilize KP and Yaw Rate KP. But result is same.
I put 'Angular Rate Control' P = 0.090
Below are my setting:Motor: NX-4006-5

I connected and enabled a sonar to my APM2.5. It works fine in CLI test mode.. but I don't see the altitude reading in the HUD matching the sonar data. It looks like it bounces around "randomly" just using the baro data. Is there something e

In keeping with my previous aim(http://diydrones.com/group/arducopterusergroup/forum/topics/operating-arducopter-without-gps-over-mavlink) of using dead reckoning to follow very short trajectories, I want to use an external AHRS (http://www.mi

Had a crash today with my quad, at first it seemed like just a motor failure but after analyzing the logs it seems there is more to it.
Just after the line 13500 (Stabilize) the crash occurs, as you can see ThrOUT (Red) starts to deviate from T

Hexcopter - power question - JP1 jumper - in or out??

Should the jumper be installed or not?
No camera yet but likely to be a pan/tilt af
I was doing a few short flights to check acceleration values (az). During this flight the GPS data didn't start until half way through the flight. The second flight the data started at the beginning like it always does.
Any idea what can cause this?

I need to replace ESCs for my P4 quadcopter but i dont have any info about my motor;
only say: Motors: 4pcs (1.5kg force/pc)
Anybody know how many AMP needs this motor? (Attached)

Been flying my Arducopter for some time now.
Two days ago I had a quite bad crash, but things seemed alright except for a broken motor mount, much of the snow around here broke the fall.
However, when I tried to start the copter again, three of t
