Read more…Hi all, I have a skid steer robot using a pixhawk cube, one 1x15 roboclaw motor controller and a dagu wild thumper 4 wheel chassis. I have skid steering working so far, testing motor c and motor d tests works as described and the vehicle can be controlled in manual mode. However, upon using any mode other than manual mode the rover wants to shake and pivot on the spot, and it seems the steering PID controller oscillates and these oscillations get larger. i have tried everything but it is still…

The rover has an EZRun Max6 ESC. The problem now is the ESC control over the transition into reverse. The ESC is currently set to it's Running Mode Option 2: "Forward/Reverse with Break", AKA the "Double Click Method".What this mode…
Read more…Hi all.I know this is an Adurover group, but Thought I would reach out and try my odds for some help as I'm perplexed by this problem. I have a Traxxas X-Maxx set up with a Pixhawk Cube 2.1 and the Here GPS. I'm using a Tarranis X7 remote controller and a X8R Sbus Receiver.

Hi All,
The Rover T3 competition has closed for the present T3 competition 100m x 100m bow tie course.
Hopefully more of our members will want to compete in future T3s as they are a lot of fun as well as a way to get the most out of your rovers.
Regards,
Tom C AVD
@dr0n3droid,
The Auto Mode will also default to the Hold Mode at the end of a waypoint Mission or with the loss of the R/C connection.
@healthyfatboy,
Yes, you are correct that the rover will stay in the Hold Mode when going to the Auto Mode if there is no Mission loaded.
Regards,
TCIII AVD
Okay, I figured it out. Unless you have a mission loaded, you can't get into AUTO mode. It always displays HOLD. I'm sure the GPS lock also applies like you mentioned.
I too noticed that flight mode setting quirk. I'm new with the Rover and haven't studied the modes yet, so I'm no help yet.
