Christian replied to Randy's discussion ArduCopter-3.1 released!
":-)
3.1.5 is the most stable release, so I use it on all of my friends copters. When they come for a repair, I know it wasn't the software.. Since we use at least LEA6H or M8N GPS I can eliminate GPS issues.. (pls don't use NEO6M any more)"

"Ravi,
In case you have no luck, try setting SR2_PARAMS to something else than 0, ie. 50. Maybe you use all the SR1 values for SR2 parameters. (In case they are all 0)"

Christian replied to Randy's discussion ArduCopter-3.2 beta testing
"hi,
maybe RC3 has an issue and ANGLE_MAX parameter has been ignored during breaking. "
