"Good for you Peter....
I haven't had a good flight yet but I did have one where under way-point test the Easy Star was oscillating wing tips ( dipping each wing back and forth )....Like it couldn'nt make up it's mind which way to go go ....Is that…"
"Hi Sgt Ric......
I agree with you about the EasyStar .... I started at this racket
before servos and proportional control ( escapements ) and there
was no throttle just full speed till the fuel ran out .... My EasyStar
has been through everything…"
"I would also like to hear from people who have had success with this system.... It hasn't worked for me yet ....I have all the hardware hook- up in my EasyStar with the way-points loaded properly..... Several near misses and one nose in this…"
"Tnx Tom....
Tried that the day before .... It was wrong but then it just dove strait down ..... Caught it on manual ....I think it may have something to do with the gain setting for the elevator ...."
"I flew my EasyStar this morning with Ardupilot 2.2.x . A little windy ....
When I put the plane in the auto mode and it started porposing towards
earth ....I recovered in manual position ....Ii tried it several times and the same
thing ... I do not…"
"Great work Damon ....
I am 73 and was about to make an adapter leaving out pin 6.... But now I don't have to ...I am a hardware man more then a software person ...Before I did my first Read- the improvised way I found smoe Extraneous data not like…"
"Hello....
I have the Sparkfun FTDI cable and adapter writing and reading the Way-Points using the Ardupilot Config Utility ......
Thanks to Damon's sugestion of lifting pin 6 from the Sparkfun adapter....I just bent the pin away from the connector…"
"I have most of it working....XY and throtle most deffinately works... Not sure about the Z....But the rudder on the out-door walk around test hardly moves with the shield in place .... I live on a street that almost runs north to south so I changed…"
"is there a physical check to see if the Z sensor works ....I know the X-Y works .....It moves the elevator up and down when tilting the model ....Couldn't get the same reaction from the Z sensor ...."
"I have a similar problem....I can't upload the schetch file as long as the GPS is connected to shield....I can get a good lock after reconnecting the GPS ....Lots of action
from the elevator and speed sensor but the rudder doesn't move in the walk…"
I am confused about the "Arduino " edition number between# 13 or #15 ....In the Ardupilot setup instructions it links youto the Arduino15 to download and use but no reference to13....Yet here some say we have to use 13 for certain editions of“…
Just tested ArdupilotNE and my EasyStar wants to dive .....Not sure why....Will try again next calm day ...Wondering if I can move the rudder control back Ch.1 and still use FlyNE for a test...Not use to flying rudder only with the left hand .....…
