The one piece of hardware that I have more trouble with than anything else, besides possibly the internal compass, is the Airspeed sensor.
Trying to find a good location for it that is not easy to damage is nearly impossible. After looking at the new
Read more…The wiki provides no information on setting up and using an alexmos gimbal with serial output. I have a gimbal that I can control with servo inputs and RC Passthrough, but, the issue is when it gives the PWM output as a servo it keeps that PWM Value

With all the benefits of a Heli over multirotors in large applications (Efficiency, payload capability, safety (ability to auto-rotate), etc.), I think this is a great step forward in finally having a mass pro

Unfortunately it wont let me download the data flash logs off the pixhawk for some reason, I will try pulling the SD Card later and seeing i

From my testing here are the pro's and con's I have found:

It would help protect the expensive sensor from damage, but, I am not sure if the static port
