"Hi James,
Thanks for the reply,
I really was asking more about setting the neutral point for the camera at say, 25 degrees so it points down a little, then using ROI angling on that.
The standard camera tilting at ROI is based on the camera…"

Hi,I like using the ROI feature and so far have used it with the camera in a fixed position.Now I want the Pixhawk to control the tilt angle as described here:http://planner.ardupilot.com/wiki/common-tarot-gimbal/All of that working to calculate the…
"SkyRover, thanks a lot for taking the time to assist. I opened the log and saw what you saw as well, but I am still investigating why I had a radio failsafe when the radio and RX were only yards apart. IO do know that my flight modes Auto and RTL…"
Hi All,I'm running a DFI-550 Flamewheel style hexacopter with a Pixhawk controller. I have just started running missions by arming the unit, flippimg to Auto on the TX, then raising the throttle stilck to take off. Works great!Well the other day I…

Hi All,I have been trying for a bit to enable 6 flight modes using mixes for the JR 9503, but have had no success.Does anyone use a 9503 and can tell how you set up the 6 flight modes?I would like to use the 2-pos Gear switch and the 3-pos Flap…
Hi All,This weekend I flew my first Auto Mission, Yay!@@It was a simple one and I just hovered in Stabilize and then flipped into Auto. After that worked well I attempted Auto-Tune, but it never finished as my GCS voice said "Loading RTL", and then…
"Hey fellows,
Thank you for the replies!
I get the gist of how it is supposed to behave...
So in practice, say I create a mission in MP at home and copy it to Droid Planner, and when I get to the field I load the mission into Droid Planner. I have…"

Howdy All,I have been learning Mission Planner and am now at the point of trying an actual mission, and I have a couple of basic (as in obvious to the experienced user)...I have a mission all set up with 4 waypoints, the first being near where I…
"Thanks for that...
My fear is that since it puts the "Auto" icon on the screen that if I accidentally hit it then it will take off somewhere.
This is also NEW behavior so I (think I) DID something to create a waypoint because all other proir (12…"

Hi All,I am starting out with the Droid Planner on my tablet and have not gotten into waypoints yet, but I was exploring the different tabs. Today when the hex armed, my DroidPlanner voice said, for the first time:"Armed... Waypoints Received"and a…

That will get me going down the right path.

Hi All,I have a peculiar little problem with my 2 UAV's.I have a lone ground radio that I can use for both machines. On the quad I use an On-the-Go cable with my Android tablet to connect and it works great. The hex can use the same ground USB radio…
"Well All, I figured this out!
My APM 2.6 did not have the foam inside, the kind used to protect the barometer from both sunlight AND stray propwash that can sneak into the enclosure. After installing the foam, which took care of of the sunlight…"
