"I guess I figured this out. All of the declarations are in AP_HAL.h. This is why the core files are ignored."

Hello!I'm trying to compile the Arducopter sketch with an addition that I made. I'm having problems with the compiler not recognizing delay and uint8_t. And when I include the core files I get an error because I am redeclaring definitions. Here is a…

"I have a development. I plugged the camera into a different power pin on the APM 2.5 and the numbers changed, so i'm guessing there might be something with the 5V supply messing with the pixel values I am sampling. 
Do you have any suggestions on…"

So here is what I'm having trouble with now. I wrote a driver for a CMOS chip and then I also have some code that will calculated the optical flow using the images from the camera. My code works perfect on the Arduino MEGA, but when I plug it into…

Brandon Hurd replied to Brandon Hurd's discussion Guide to setup APM 2.5 without using Mission Planner in Learning to program the Ardupilot Mega
"Ok, well maybe I need the clarify... I'm pretty knew at coding, but I have come along way since December.

I'll start by trying to figure out why I can't see the gyro movement in Mission Planner when I upload the firmware through Arduino. I can view…"

Hi,Thanks everyone for all the help I have been getting. I was wondering if there are instructions on how to setup the ArduCopter code. For example, how to calibrate the gyros, radio, and anything else I might want to do.Thanks!

Here is my situation. I have my own camera setup and code that I have written to proform optical flow on a ATMEGA 2560 and now I need to incorporate this onto the ARDUPILOT 2.5. Question:Where header file should I be modifying to ad my code in. I…
