Jeff Cook replied to Tony Foate's discussion Log Column Headings
"I second Tony's last question. Trying to get to the bottom of situations would be greatly helped if the columns of each row type were explained somewhere. I know many are obvious, but many are simply a number with no column heading (MOD Stabilize…"

Hi all,I have a very odd condition on my multi. My setup is a hex (+ configuration) running 2.9.1b with MP 1.2.53. Operates perfectly in Stabilize, Alt Hold, and Loiter. When I switch to Simple Mode, forward movement of right stick causes copter to…

"Michael...We all greatly appreciate your herculean efforts on the Mission Planner - it is really fine work! We also appreciate the frequent updates to fix bugs and add features. If I could ask for one thing, it would be to keep changelog.txt current…"

"One of the early posts by Gary was in support of pdf-based "Manuals". I strongly support this idea as a way of reducing the incredible clutter of huge "My experience was...and how can I fix it" threads. Manuals (or perhaps chapters within a manual)…"

"Wow! What a comfortable flying experience. Alt hold is SOLID, plus the general feel of 2.9 gives the operator a real sense of natural control. Many thanks to our excellent developers and their fine product - Great Job."

"Michael...Thanks, I found the changelog.txt file in the 1.2.30 install directory and in the .zip. Interestingly, it contained the changes for 1.2.29, but not for 1.2.30...Jeff"

"Michael...I looked in the directory (and subs) that contains the ArdupilotMegaPlanner10.exe for  Mission Planner 1.2.29, in the .zip download file for the same, and did a complete system-wide search for a file named changelog.txt. The only one I…"

"I cannot seem to locate the release notes/change log/what's new/... etc. for the (frequently updated) Mission Planner, i.e. 1.2.27, 1.2.28, and most recently 1.2.29. Specifically, I am trying to find out what incremental changes/fixes have occurred…"

I am more than a little confused by the transition from, say Alt Hold mode, to Stabilize mode. Let's say I launch and determine that a stable hover is at 1/4 throttle (no matter the altitude). Now I ascend to 20', return to 1/4 throttle, and enter…

I accidentally melted most of the large black plug on my APM 2.5 telemetry cable. I was able to get a new plastic plug and I removed all of the tiny gold connectors (undamaged) from the mess, but I did NOT note their positions before removing them.…
