Giddy everyone, I heard it was possible to save an APM settings on mission planner so that it's possible to use them again on another APM or maybe a pix hawk? Even just to back up the data settings, in case you need to reset for some reason. Please can anyone help with this :)

Thank you very much, I haven't had much luck with replies here so I really appreciate the help. I've had a glitch with my APM, only now and then it'll just lock into a turn with motor full. So I'm trying to save the settings and try another board to see if it's the problem or not. Thanks again.
It is my experience, most issues like you describe are a result of motor, cable or ESC malfunction. For example I had a motor with a slipping shaft, the faster it ran the slower the pro went. The FC couldn't work with that situation and crashed the copter. PWM cable controlling the ESC will kill a motor mid flight and dodgy ESC will do crazier stuff.

Not sure if you have had a reply to this one. Apologies if you have!
Yes you can save the parameters list. Just go to configuration/advanced-parameters in Mission Planner and its an option.
Hi,
I didn't find any "saving to file" option for the parameters...
the only thing I found was about flight log downloading.
can you be more precise ?
Thanks
found it: in full list of advance parameters

I hope this helps.
