"Michael: I am working on this right now. This was my last blog post about it http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/rate-pi-autotuning-a-third-attempt.
I am integrating this code and enhancing it in the new project structure. Feel free to pull down…"

"René Jean:
In order to change the refresh rate, you need to flash them. The simonK firmware is great. Give it a shot!"

"All defects in the software are logged here: http://code.google.com/p/arducopter/issues/list
That can be viewed by anyone at anytime. Defects are not hidden from the public. There is a repository for them at the above link so that developers can…"

"@Randy: Simonk firmware does not play nice with some low kV motors. The symptoms are loss of timing / sync and motor cutouts. A more robust ESC firmware that is still linear throttle / fast respose is wii-esc. They have a sync recovery system and…"
"Any chance you will create one with a higher amp rating?"
"Excellent video Marco! For all the auto-rotation questions... this is not a true auto-rotation, but it does demonstrate that the quad can maintain its attitude in a near free fall. Marco has custom firmware on his ESCs that is likely responsible for…"
"You could try to tilt the motors 3 degrees per the wiki for large octo configurations. This will give you more yaw authority. Check to see if you have the motors tilted the wrong direction, which will decrease your yaw authority."
"Turns out the solution was quite simple. I just checked new code into master that will allow users to specify if they are using 360 (continuous) servos. Currently the code uses the angular output from the AHRS solution to compute a corresponding PWM…"
"I have the 10CAG and this post is written for the 10CAG model. There must be a difference in the 10CAP."
"You sure you have the same radio? I just went through this process tonight and it worked for me."
"How the hell did you figure this out? :-D"
"Rigel: Do you have telemetry? Tlogs only contain data if you are using telemetry. Regardless, you should update to 2.6.
Nice Magneto image BTW :-D"

"Question for anyone: I would not consider myself a "PID beginner", but I can always use more tips and tricks from other experienced users. My question is this, Given that the Stab P gain could change the way that the RATE P/I gains behave, how can…"
"Hello All! Just had my first long flight with 2.6. It is FANTASTIC! Here is a little tip that gets repeated often in these forums and is equally as often ignored: Do NOT use bullet connectors! I was never a believer in the down side of bullet…"
