Hi All, I'm hoping someone has seen this problem... With all the ESCs plugged into the APM, this one ESC starts up at zero throttle. All the others start running when throttle is applied as one would expect. I've switched the ESC to a different…
"That is a standard safety on most (all?) radios.BTW the standard dis-arm is to hold the throttle to the bottom left for several seconds."
"Look at this form:

There is a whole discussion on battery options and mods."

"They are still out of stock on the individual receivers (~$8) that you can buy separately. Finally had to cancel that part of my order after a month so that HK would ship the rest of the $300 order. Expecting to get mine next week!"
"This is another really good site for cnc machines and other things

"For starters check out buildyourcnc.com. He gives free plans and videos for the build plus he sells kits in various forms. also if you poke around on that site you will also find links to other sites for other design, some free some not."
"I've been looking for an affordable CNC for some time. Saw this posting and went for the $390 kit. The is a similar sized CNC by a company called Zen Works that sells for approximately the same price so it seem reasonable that it can be produced for…"
"Thanks very much Jean-Louis for your help."
"Hi Jean-Louis,
I have a couple of questions. I was wondering if you could comment on the sensitivity of this design on scale. I.E. I where to just just scale this design down by 10% (so as to fit the particular material in have available at the…"

"Hi Melih,
I was just wondering what language you programmed this in."

"Wow, I missed that major point! I just noticed that the size of the zip files for ArduCopter (300K including lib) and ArduPilotMega (1.1M) are very different with that of APM being much larger. I would have thought the ArduCopter would be more…"
"Hi Chris,
Could you explain the difference between ArducopterNG and ArduPilotMega? I gather that at some point these two code bases will be merged into a single program. At this point why should someone use one over the other? In my case I'm…"

"Wondering the same thing Johann. I see the "1.0-Beta" in the CLI as well."
"Jean-Louis, just noticed in the configuration that the props are different. Why is that?"
"Jean-Louis, thanks again for sharing. At this point, does the tail do anything?"
