Adrian commented on Luis Alves's blog post AlceOSD - Graphical OSD for APM/PX4
"Looks great. Very interested. Had a look at the video.. should the horizon be rotating in the opposite direction to stay in line with the horizon in the video? It seems to be rotating in the wrong direction."

Adrian replied to Adrian's discussion FWBA - Throttle issue - Limited throttle output. in ArduPlane User Group
"I had a look at the TRIM_THROTTLE figure. This is set to 45 or 50% which I is the approx. throttle input (half throttle stick) required for a cruise on the Talon. Im not sure how this feeds into the throttle control in FBWA.

Adrian replied to Adrian's discussion FWBA - Throttle issue - Limited throttle output. in ArduPlane User Group
"I believe I have calibrated the radio correctly.
The THR_PASS_STAB is disabled. It correctly does the pass thru if enabled.
I will have a look at the TRIM_THROTTLE figure.
Do you know how this affects the FBWA throttle?

Thanks

I decided to go with a high cell count (6S) to reduce the current and a lower Kv motor.. this reduces the overall current load.

"@Not Sure....
