"Terrific. Thanks for the clarification. So I should then flash the ArduPPM_v0.9.87_Arducopter-APMv1.4.hex to the PPM encoder that doesn't have the CH8 passthrough support. Is that right?"
I recall reading on the WIKI that ch8 input should never be used with arducopter code, in that it triggers manual output of the PWM signals. Is this still true with the later code? I'm already using channel 6 and 7 for gimbal control and was hoping…
"Don't forget about me! I'm in Columbia with a very happy Octo. I travel with it to Greenville, SC and Asheville,NC all the time. Great to see other builders in the Palmetto state! Good luck with your build!"
"Is it normal for the new 2.6 code to be beeping constantly? I have a speaker attached to A5 on my APM2 and when the motors are disarmed, the system is just beeping constantly. When I arm the motors, the beeping changes to a solid tone. On 2.5 and…"

"Thanks for the invite. I'll share whatever I can. Although the build itself was pretty uneventful, I *am* fighting to get the PID values correct. It seems like everyone else's "heavy" quad, hexa and X-8 parameters are of little use for the stiff…"
