Istvan Fekete replied to Josh's discussion Custom drone build - Motors
"You can use a tipical 450-500 power combo. 2212-2213 motors (900-960 kv), with 9,5x4,7 props with 4 cell battery

I think the 3d printed frame not too strong. I'm using TBS Discovery frame clone from China."

Hi! I'd like build an airspeed sensor for my plane. I have MPXV7002DP sensor (original from Freescale Inc. ), and I tried circuit, what the datasheet suggest (1 uf and 10 nF paralell with 5V, and 47 pF paralell with output), but when I swithched on…

Istvan Fekete replied to Andrew Tridgell's discussion APM:Plane 2.74 released
"I'm sorry for not too firmware specific question. I have a little flying wing, and I can't place APM 2.5 on center of plane. Can I place off axis (max 2-3 inch) the Ardupilot controller? Anyone try it?
Thanks for help!

"I upload the newest ArduplaneNG software (from here:http://megapirateng.googlecode.com/svn/branches/arduplane/ ), and I think problem is solved. But didn't fly too much, because I changed the board to HK Pilot 2.5, and working very well!!!

"I upload the Megapirate code, revision 300, and I think it's better (but I can't fly, because one day very windy, another rainy or snowy in Hungary), if I switch to stabilize mode, the servo's endpoint settings working, don't go to mechanical servo…"

"The problem is still persists on my plane too.  In stabilized mode acceptable, altough a little bit agressive the reaction, but in RTL mode the plane very unstable, increasingly wobbly. If I tried reducing Nav roll PID-s, I can't seen any change (on…"

"I found an interesting problem: when I try power my board from battery (same connecting as Jean Louis), only 3rd or 4th attempt can lock the GPS, the green LED don't start flashing (the GPS is u-blox NEO6M module from HK, and it's red flashing, when…"
