Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
Been assembling some 450 class drones, keen to know more. Right now still a user, but hoping to move beyond that.

"Thanks for the reply. I have swapped out the APM and put it on a larger frame. I have put it back the pixhawk. I was able to make the APM better, but the pixhawk faster response suited the frame better."
"The V550 flights (1 axis gimbal) where you can see the rolls as only pitch is compensated has a post production stabilisation applied. This causes the wobble.
I don't have the photos of the gimbal, but here is some build notes…"

"Thanks for the feedback. I might move my micro APM from H600 to a beat up F450."
"i have the HK pilot micro APM. How does it compare on acro/sport mode to a naze32? Given that the APM is slower than a naze32? One of the disadvantage of pixhawk is size. I am not a fpv racer but I do want to do some faster flights, not too keen use…"
"I have a walkers g2d and g3d, I just filed down the gimbal to accommodate the slightly larger xiaomi yi.
Xiaomi yi in 3 axis g2d and 1 axis gimbal
This one is xiaomi yi on g2d"

"Rebuilt my quad after the crash. Some build notes here:

About a month ago I had my first real crash since I started this hobby about 10 months ago. I have now built 3 quad copters, dji F450, v550 reptile (tbs discovery clone) and a H600 (its like an extended F450, like QAV550 but using F450 arms). Each…
"Here is another flight.
Log file
On about 4 minute, I went full forward pitch. This made the quadcopter loose a bit of altitude as there is not enough thrust for lift. My OSD goes nuts warning me of max vertical speed. I then backed off and…"

"Hi,
I am one of the few who reported early in this thread, when I downgraded from 3.2.1 to 3.1.5 it fixed my issue. I am only able to upload the log file now, as I took a break to did some South Island New Zealand videos. Then when I came back,…"

"I just got back from my break, last week. Yesterday I reassembled the H quad, so I can start testing 3.1.5 and 3.2.1 again. It was pretty good, and I was testing if the new quad can handle high winds... it did. Unfortunately towards the end of…"
"I just used the neo7 GPS on the APM. It's a straight swap as it uses 6 wire. 9-11 satellites is easily locked. It holds position well even during high winds. I am testing for high wind performance of a new frame, unfortunately I had a crash towards…"
"It's should be ok. I actually got a full size neo7 to replace my micro. But I haven't done it yet."
"No modification for me. I used a walkera PWM Rx. I also used a standard APM/Pixhawk power module, as the PDB that came with the set is just 60A rating. I only had to change the connector for power, as the one in micro APM is smaller.
Maybe you…"

"Hi Rob,
Thanks for posting. I will try to post a log after 2 weeks, going away and using my quads. I think I can help a bit as I got both APM and Pixhawk class FC. Here is what happened to me.
I have a V550 (TBS Discovery Clone), using HK…"

"Is this issue only on 3.2.x? I have an APM and after downgrading to 3.1.5 it works much better on alt hold and loiter. Otherwise it would shoot up, tries go down and keeps on bobbing and motors goes fast and slow.
On the pixhawk I did not see this,…"

"Thanks for confirming that original 3dr APM also has the same issue, anyone else with a original 3dr APM having the same issue?
It's easy to knock off cheap means poor hardware. I actually find the micro APM to be innovative, it's really small. The…"
