"Very cool. Quick question: I've been trying to find out what software people are using to convert a set of stills into a video as you have done above? Thanks"
"Thanks for the feedback. I'm sure that many people here will be following your efforts with great interest."
"I do like the sound of having a failover system, but in reality how many events will allow you to identify that your primary APM is misbehaving? There is obviously the situation of complete loss of data from the primary APM to the monitoring…"
"Yes i see this. It's been difficult to detect a pattern of activity which causes the crash.
I too am on a WinXP SP3 low spec laptop which could do with a little more horse power!"

AC 2.0.39APM Planner 1.0.48 I've been getting prepared for doing some more test flights with the latest code and i noticed with everything ready to take off the APM Planer virtual horizon was jumping around, showing upto +/- 10 degrees of pitch…
"Great looking Hexa, beautifully minimal.
Is there any issue with having the APM sensors forward of the CoG? Did you have to customise the AC2 code?
Would you be happy to share the information about the Motors and Props, plus any idea of the…"

"Sounds very cool. My camera mount UAV is still in design stage, but nothing quite as smart as you are developing.
I would love to know where you sourced your damping shocks? I spent an evening online and i found nothing small enough for quadcopter…"

"Thanks for the replies, they have been really helpful. ArdupiratesNG has the clean mixer table code which will hopefully find it's way into ACM as at this stage ACM does not have the mixer layer of abstraction.
I will build the airframe and see…"

I am about to embark on quadcopter mark 2 but before wasting materials i would like to share my idea to find out if it is ridiculous and destined to not be flyable/stable.The idea is to move away from a uniform 90 degree cross airframe and instead…
"I have managed to get the following communication all working
hardware GCS <-> xbee ----------- xbee <-> APM <-> USB Host Arduino -> Canon G9
Here are a few notes which other people might find useful and which might save others from making the…"

"Here is the ground station i am working on. It started out being based around an arduino Duemilanove but it soon became clear that having multiple serial ports would speed development and also make it possible to include a GPS for many fun uses in…"
"The G9 appears to allow zoom values of 0 to 13, is that the same for your S3?"
"LOL, just received my usb host mini boards from Oleg yesterday! and was looking forward to trying to get my G9 talking to it. It is a great shame that Canon has dropped support within the newer powershot cameras for the cool stuff like remote…"
Hi, Has anyone else experienced a motor spinning up ( or a servo glitching ) whileuploading new code to the APMI totally understand that while code is being uploaded the system is in aunknown state so i should expect the un-expected from the APM…
"great work guys, you really are allowing so many people to have great fun while learning at the same time. Thanks x 1,000,000"
