Hello everyone! I am working on APM1 kit for making my quadcopter. I need to import data from mission planner in excel. i read in one of the post of diydrones to use application named as 'TLogDataExtraxtor'. But i couldnt find any more help! like fro
I have an APM1 on a fully assembled ArduCopter. Never flown. Never connected. This has been sitting in the box for 2 years. MissionPlanner 1.2.16 is installed. COM4 appears when I plug into the board. The board lights up and appears alive and w
I spent some time out this morning trying various configs and just getting to know the flight dynamics of the frame/quad that I built. It's the standard 3DR X form quad, with sonar mounts front and back. I also added some foam to the landin
I hope some one can help me. I have spent quite a bit of time flying quads using multiwii and thought I would try Arducopter get some more functionality.
I spent some time tuning my quad indoors using the method posted by Dave C. I then tuned
This is more targeted at the traditional heli setups but is there plans (or currently implemented) an emergency bailout feature like that of the helicommand or the recently released Align APS?
If not, is it technical difficulties or lack of testing (l
All ESCs have been calibrated and motors run up smoothly with the throttle through the entire range when connected directly to the receiver. When connected to APM 2.5, motors jump to near full speed with little throttle input. THR_MIN is set
I have posted about this before and really haven't had a solution. Once in awhile after I get the computer hooked up to the quad and get things set. Then I unhook and get the motors going. One motor will not spin. I will try a few times
I'm trying to write code for the aircraft with vertical take-off and landing based last arduplane code, and therefore carefully reviewing code of arducopter (altitude.pde and ap_motorstri.cpp). incidentally found that the levels of the stabilizing ef
We've got a fully assembled hexacopter by jDrones running the APM1 with the bigger motors. We've been following the Arducopter wiki step-by-step, but are having trouble completing the ESC calibration process. We can get the motors to spin after
I started this quad some time ago with the purpose of vertical photography for mapping and elevation modelling....yip, another one of those. I have some questions that I have searched for on the site and have not found answers to. Sorry if I cover
I'm a newbie here and not quite sure how to go about loading a param file into Mission Planner. Don't see any options under the Configuration tab to do that. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious. Any guidance appreciated!
fI am getting no data from my sensors. MP connects to APM 2.5. only info is Channels in., and i can calibrate radio. parameters seem to accept changes, But no arming, sensor data, guages or anything.
