All,I have an APM2.5+ w/ enclosure (allows vertical adaptors) that i would like to sell. I found out recently that my 3.3V regulator was blown and I do not want to attempt to open it up and fix this. This was purchased directly from 3drobotics in…
"Crady,
Clearly what I thought was the correct way to install the props was backwards. I thought the "R" was for counter-clockwise side. I swapped the props and am getting thrust!! Thank you SO much. Time to continue testing."

"Just ran a test:
50% throttle current draw (1505 PWM): 9;06V @ 37A
100% throttle current draw (1891 PWM): 8.3V @ 52A - 60A
I see FAILSAFE on my HUD. All my Failsafe is disabled.

"What should I submit a video of (HUD, any status variables, the actual quad)? I can take one on my cell phone and upload it. I completed the all at once method for my ESC calibration. I had previously done them individually via the manual process…"
I am having some major problems and was hoping that someone can please help me determine what is wrong and give me more direction on what else to check. I have my quad setup setup with APM2.5 and ArduCopter 3.1.2. Trying to do my maiden flight but…
"Max - Sorry to hear about your issue with the brand new APM. I got my APM2.5 a year or so ago directly from 3DR Robotics. I didnt have a Bad Gyro Health issue until updating to 3.1.2. I think that the blown regulator did not cause any problems for…"
"Thanks guys.. I will try and power my RX independently of the APM, ESCs, and Motors and see if I get similar results or if I am able to get results closer to the Wiki. Thanks!"
"I was able to find this article about a blown 3.3V regulator. Although it provides some ways that the regulator can burn out, I didnt think that I did any of those.

"I am using either my 2s lipo or my USB connection. Where do I attach the J1 jumper. I have never heard of this."
I am starting to get my ArduRover configured and am having some trouble with getting basic functionality from my radio to my steering servo. I have APM2.5+ and have loaded ArduRover2.20B via Mission Planner (version 1.2.35 mav 1.0). I am trying…
"Update: Learned that the ATMEGA32U2 may be a special PPM encoder Chip. I will use A0 to A3 (pin 97 to94) as my inputs from my Radio RX outputs instead. Still not seeing what I would expect for PulseIn command. All power is applied correctly.…"
"Got it to work! My issue was that the driver that was loaded automatically by Windows XP wasnt correct. I had to go in and manually set the driver to the .inf file for the Arduino 2560 Rev3 board. Now the correct Comm port is shown in Arduino…"
I am new to Arduino programming and am learning the language from the basics. I downloaded Arduino w/Autopilot application for my PC and have the APM2.5. I have a short program that I wrote that I want to upload to the APM.I have gone through and…
