About Me:
I have enjoyed RC ground since I was a boy and always wanted to get into RC air, so now I am.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
I would like to fly FPV over my property and use AMP to for some basic loiter and RTL controls.

"I am not him and haven't played with this stuff in years but maybe one of my old files has what u want... no promisses... One file was probably for regular flying and one for APM... IDK been a while07BIXLER.SPM08BIXLER.SPM"
"Ok, so while on the ground for all of this testing...I tried the calibration procedure many times while APM was in the plane and got wildly different settings and no completely funtional compass results.
I took the APM out of the chassis containing…"

"Yea, the wind was blowing to the south and a bit stronger than other days I have tested (maybe 10 mph). I did load the bixler config file and read through the manual files but when the stock bixler configuration worked so well for FBW-A and…"
Hi, I am testing my APM and for some reason when I switch it into Loiter or RTL it will continuously drift south until it is on the edge of my comfort zone and I take control again (300ft maybe). The first circle of Loiter and RTL look good but the…
"Does anyone have a solid model or 3D model of the new purple APM v2?"
"Jonathan, Zach, Thanks for the posts."
"22000 Members and nobody will offer friendly advice as to how to mount their APM2... What if I say Please?"
I am looking for advice on how to mount my APM2 board.I plan to first put it on a Bixler with a Bixler-electronics chassis purchased from the DIY-Drones Store and then later on a Tri or Quad copter.In looking around I think people are using foam…
I have a DX8 would really like to get 6 flight modes out of my 3 position switch (and one additional switch) using only one channel. There are great instructions on how to do this here...…
"This is an awesome post, thanks. I have used up all of my mixes. Is there a way to do it with only one mix? That is all I have left."
"If you want it even smaller and lighter take a look at this video about putting arduino code onto a single small chip. super small, super light, super cheap. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30rPt802n1k&list=FL0713sk_gctNiI..."
Does anyone have a 3D model of a Bixler or Bixler-like airframe? Or maybe just the front of the fuselage? I wand to model some Add-ons for it like maybe a Go-Pro holder and other snap in accessories for my planes and them have them printed or laser…
"I see, thank you. Would it be safe to say that a quad could carry more payload (heavier camera) or equal with less effort?"
I am preparing to build my first multi-rotor copter and my question is this... What are the pros and cons of Quadcopters vs Tricopters. It seems most of the people on DIY Drones use quadcopters but people like David Windestall, also known as…
"I finally found it.
It is made by JST and their part number is B4B-PH-K-S(LF)(SN).
I got it from Digi-Key and their part number is 455-1706-ND and they were like $0.18 each.
Purchased here.
Just in case anyone else out there wants them too."
