"Thank Tom, 

Tried the Pivot Turn angle to 0,30, 100,.  No changes at all.
I have switched my Sabertooth to mixing mode, with skid steer out set to off, all works fine.  Returned it to Skid steer out to on  and back in non mixing mode, no dice.…"

"Thank you for the info, i'll play around with some of the settings.  
The strange thing here is, this is all in Manual mode, I haven't even gotten any other mode."

"Thank you,  Let me know if you need any information from my APM.

"I do have a mission loaded.  I ran the mission, uploaded the new firmware, then tried to run the mission again, but it would not switch out of hold mode.  The settings are correct for that input, it should be in auto mode.  I went back a firmware…"

"Tom,

I finally got a chance to load the beta software, but now i cannot get into Auto mode.  When i flip over to it, the apm just goes into hold mode, with good gps and all else was good, and unchanged.  Just the firmware version."

"Thanks Tom,

If i read the Pivt Turn Angle right, I need to be in in Skid Steer mode on the the APM.  Am i correct in that?

If that's the case, I guess i should turn off mixing mode on the Sabertooth and Enable Skidsteer output on the APM"

"I'd like to take a stab at getting the APM firmware running.  I realistically only need the motors controlled.  The flipper and Camera can be controlled other ways."

"Good Morning,

I have a similar situation.  I recently inherited a very nice track robot, with a Mega2560 control board, 3 Sabertooths one for the 2 motors and 1 for flipper arms  (sabertooths are in packetized mode) and one serparate for the camera…"
