Inspired by others I have constructed a 4 foot wingspan design for my first drone.Design turned out quite heavy and the short nose is pushing the cofg well back so will need to add some mass up front.IMG_0016.jpg
Has anyone tried flying an Ardupilot without the IR sensors? Assume if you have a very stable platform ie one with sufficient dihedralthat basic navigation should be possible using rudder alone with the elevatorcontrolled by GPS height.
"Try looking for mix flaps with gear. I have a DX6i and used gear and flap switches to form a three position output on channel 5. What did prove handy was using a monitor channel screen on my TX to see the effect of the various edits to the mix…"
Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the ArduPilot board? Looking to see how the board connects through to the shield.
Working up a system towards use in a ground effect model to be flown over water. To get thinks started I would like to use the ArduPilot without a shield board, ie no airspeed measurement or X:Y sensors. This way Ican test the functionality of the…

Confused as to which voltage device I need to purchase to programme the ArduPilotIntend to run the ArduPilot from my brushless ESC which has a 5v BEC supply. Had thought I need to buy a 5v FTDI board but links on Sparkfun direct you to the 3.3v…
Looking at the possibility of building a navigation only system as a starter for 10.Can someone direct me to a circuit diagram for the ArduPilot Shield board please.Unsure if I need the board as have no desire at this point in time to measure air…
