"Ok, I have been asking basically the same question, but I have the 1280 processor. It says so on top of it.
What is the latest version of code I can run on it I dont need data collection, but would like to use waypoints etc.
I would really like a…"

Hi guys. I havent been around for a while, and havent done anything with my quadcopter for ever either. I have a APM 1.4 with oilpan etc, and was wondering what is and where can I get the latest version of working code that will work with my…
"Anyone... Please. I would really like to get this thing flying.
Is it possible my accel roll sensors are faulty causing the jump of 200 points back and forth in configurator?
I can't help but think this will cause instability. ( my main problem)"

"One more thing. My APM/IMU is secured with rubber bands to high density foam on my frame to try and dampen vibrations. "
I'm having a bit of trouble getting my quad with Apm and Oilpan to stabalize or fly decently. I have followed all instructions in the Arducopter wiki and read them all. What I have noticed is there's not a lot about how to setup and stabalize the…
Hi guys, it's been a while, but I finally got all the parts needed to finish my quadcopter, and assemble/fly it.Well, all seemed to go well until the flight part, I try to get it to take off, and even in stable mode it starts to lift off then just…
"Yes it was a good doc.. I found it did paint uav's in a bad light, but, it is true... Anyone can build one and equip it for ANY purpose easily.
A bit of overexaggeration and maybe a some fearmongering in the content tho', but all-in-all an…"

"The plug is down, or at least on mine from Hobby King that looks identical."
"Thanks guys.. anything that will make download times faster and video stream smoother is a major bonus.
I too remember the 2400 baud dial up modems... very well in fact.. I think I still have a 386 TI laptop with 2400 modem in it, and it still…"

Hi guys, I would like to ask a really BIG favour of everyone posting videos, in order to help those of us with slow internet connections, could you please post video on utube instead of vimeo? As vimeo stalls while buffering and canot be paused and…
"Very nice indeed!
What kind of total flight time do you get with this setup (with an average speed, not full throttle)? And... What is the total weight of the quad with camera?
Thanks.. Keep up the good work."

"update:
ok.. I can get to the CLI window, and see settings with NG, and see settings, as soon as I type test it goes directly into radio control test.
but still nothing with he gps data. I can change the enable/disable magneto setting.

Hi, I received my APM, APM IMU, UBlox gps and assembled the APM's correctly.I loaded the Ardupilot mega ver 1.0 software with no problems, hooked it up to Happy Killmore's GCS and can see my position on the google earth map and my altitude and tilt…
"I saw a video on utube of a hexacopter that crashed and lost an arm, it immediately was flown with 5 rotors and was still stable and flying well.
It did rip pretty well with all 6 motors, better than a quad it looked like to me.
I tried to find it…"

Hey guys, can I hook my ardupilotmega IMU to PC with usb WITHOUT being part of the APM?will it give any info, or can I damage it if I hook it up before they're built together?I don't have my APM yet and just wanted to play...
"@ jasonshort.. yes they are.. Great! lol. I think these may last a bit, they're 1/2" x 3/16" 6160 aircraft grade. they're only 4" long, but the pic makes them look longer for some reason. If they don't cut it, I'll re-think them along with…"
