Jon Rowe commented on Emlid's blog post Navio autopilot now supports Raspberry Pi 3!
"Put mine together last week and got the Navio2/RPI3 in the air on an RCTimer 700 frame over the weekend for a couple test flights. It needs some tuning but here is a boring <G> hover video of the maiden voyage. The people at Emlid are awesome and…"

Jon Rowe replied to Justin M's discussion Any experience with the "Fake" GoPro cameras? in IRIS
"On my FY G3 gimbal the SJCam 4000 couldn't be used with GoPro bracket because it was slightly thicker. It didn't cause problem with gimbal but the FYG has larger servos. The 2 main reasons I went back to GoPro 3+ 
1) Pics and video simultaneously …"

Jon Rowe replied to Eric Lee's discussion Anyone had problem ordering from 3DR store? in IRIS
"3DR ordering process is jacked. I ordered 2 items almost a month ago and had no indication of a back order for the MinimOSD (which I have not received). I called when getting a confirmation email for only 1 item shipping and the rep said no, that…"

"No I haven't tried others, just left at the 250 default. It's for aerial platform and I'm looking for a tame stable flying platform.

"What did you end up setting the PILOT_VELZ_MAX value at? I have the same problem in Alt Hold and Drift mode. It shoots up like a rocket. Loiter and Stabilize are fine.
Thanks

Jon Rowe replied to Seppo's discussion RFD900, RFD900+ - New long range radio modem
"I also have Pixhawk powering up the air radio. I'm getting ready for 1st test flight and a newbie but the RFD900's are connecting and I've saved a flight plan with the modem connected to telemetry port. I can't speak to whether it will be as…"

Last weekend I updated firmware to 3.2 RC14 from current stable release. Prior to the update I had performed several ESC calibrations (during build) and had successful flights. Updating to latest beta all seemed well after several flights, however,…

"I thought about that too. I have a plane with a couple radios but they are disconnected and not powered on. It seems very odd that I plug in GS radio and get flashing green and can access, unplug and plug in the 2nd and get solid green and no…"
