James Holbrook commented on Chris Anderson's blog post ArduPilot Pro home page
"Hey Jordi,

I realize it may be similar, but that doesn't mean it IS the ArduPilot Pro code. Where can one get the ArduPilot Pro code so we can build and work with an ArduPilot Pro?

Not trying to be difficult here, just asking.

"@Chris

Just a thought that I had. If the boards and BOM are available to build a ArduPilot Pro, where is the code? Does one have to a member of some elite group to be able to get the code to work with? Doesn't make much sense to have the hardware…"

"@Chris There is a thread on RCGroups in the multi-rotor helicopter section by two fellows, Mikro and PaulRene that are doing this both ways.

Mikro is using a spread spectrum receiver and reading the indiividual channels then using interrupts to…"

"Hold the train Chris,

Got it to read the pulses now. I had followed the pinout in the code but the pin numbers didn't match up and once I connected to PD7 to D7, it started working. Now Do I just repeat the code for these two channels for the next…"

James Holbrook commented on James Holbrook's blog post Reading PWM from a receiver
"Hey Chris.

The setup is my receiver is on, the servo pins are connected to pins 5&6. When I start the code it states: Ready.
Then is says Channel 1: 0
Initial Throttle: 1497
Channel 2: 0
0 -224
Initial Steer: 0
Channel 1: 0

then on the next cycle…"

James Holbrook commented on James Holbrook's blog post Reading PWM from a receiver
"Thank you Chris. What I am referring to is to be able to read the pulse that leaves the receiver and goes to the servos. I have modified my receiver to be able to attach the output stream to Pin 8 and I also have tried pulseIn as you all do. PPM PWM…"

"For Chris,

You have mentioned that you are decoding binary gps info. Can you point me to the code or explain how this is done?

For Michael King: The MicroGCS still will not run on W2K.

Just got back from a road trip and downloaded the version for Mappoint. No apparent issues installing on W2K but the program does not run at all.

I downloaded the GoogleEarth version of MicroGCS next and have some issues. I get the…"

"Hey Wayne. Sounds really good. I am in process of moving into a new place so my BSX is on hold right at the moment but I will take you up on the offer as soon as I settle in.

Thanks in advance.
