Which mavlink commands does APM use for the guided mode? Specifically to create the new waypoint?
"ok so i just watched Randy's video on you tube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0rEoBaJxiI and tried to check my readings using the tuning button but I get flat values for the barometer and accelerometers even if i'm moving the apm around.

Hi,I've noticed the altitude reading under the "Quick" tab in mission planner seems to vary by a large degree just sitting on the couch next to me (3 - 4 meters). However when I go into the terminal and read the altitude through "test"->"altitude"…
"ok so i've tried with both an ftdi cable connected to the gps uart and using the arduino sketches on the apm (and connecting the reset pin to +5v) but i'm unable to update the firmware. In both instances I can connect to the gps and see nmea info…"
"do i use 3.3v or 5v logic levels if i'm updating via an ftdi adaptor?"
"I had the same problem and believe it was caused by a lack of shielding between the APM and the power distribution board. I used some adhesive foil tape on both sides of the frame separating the APM from power distribution board and found that it…"
"Unfortunately not a good time for me however it'd be great if someone could record it."
Given some of the horror stories of people losing quads I'm determined to be completely across the failsafe settings in APM2 so i've read most of the threads but after doing some testing I have one question.I removed the props, dialled up the…

"Tried it with a 5V TTL logic levels and i still get the same result.
Does anyone know of a way to get it out of bootloader mode so I can at least use it with the old firmware or is it completely bricked now?"

"Just realised i have a 3.3v ttl ftdi cable, what are the logic levels of the 3dr radio?"
"I can't even see the settings it's configured for as when i press Load settings it comes back with "failed to enter command mode".
Maybe i have a dodgy radio?"

Ok so I read the seven page thread on the importance of a clean power supply in the hope I would have a definitive answer on the best way to connect my ESC's directly to the APM2 however I seem to be left with a few questions.I plan to power the…
"Did you end up getting your xbee24 working?I have 2 x series 2 xbee 2.4ghz and after configuring them i get the rssi light on both ends and when i click connect in mission planner it comes up with "getting params" but then states it can not…"
I'm getting impatient waiting for a replacement ESC and was wondering if it's ok to mix and match different brands of ESC's? Do I just need to make sure the specs are identical?
