"Here is an update on our situation: the problem is within the "Stabilize" mode. This was seen in "Auto-Loiter" because it auto stabilizes here too. Instead of countering whatever roll bias the plane has in flight, the ailerons turn into the roll…"
"Thanks for your reply, Chris. Which servos need their output reversed? We have had issues in the past with servo output needing reversal, but as far as I could tell all servos were operating correctly. The plane flew well in manual mode. In MP or…"
Good afternoon,This morning and afternoon my flying group and I were flying a Multiplex EasyStar fitted with a Pixhawk complete with all necessary sensors. All the radio and sensor calibrations had been finished successfully, and we launched it with…

Hello all,I'm part of a team that's been working on a Multiplex EasyStar, and the motor we've been using is an E-flite 400h 4200Kv brushless. Today, while going through our pre-flight checklist, we found that the motor cut off just before full…
"Thanks a lot, Craig! That's a very well-written and thorough reply. We figured out that the problem was actually linked to our constant changing from qgroundcontrol to APM Planner and back, which each time overwrote the previous firmware along with…"
"I'm a new user, and I've run into a similar problem as well. Did anyone have any success looking into this problem? Thank you.
