Here's the new 10" specific layout for large format tablets...
Alas - I was super busy with work this week, but I wanted to get out this release with a couple of fixes (Rana, I still haven't found the cause of the UDP upload from tablet - I'll work on
Read more…Hi ya'll,
Although this tablet works with Andropilot and I've added support for the built-in joysticks, I've decided that there are enough limits to the tablet that I can't really recommend it:

* Fix an autobug acces
Hi ya'll,
Thanks for the folks that have been alpha testing this feature (and finding bugs). It seems to work pretty well, so I'm calling it beta and pushing a new load to the google servers (should be available for download in a few hours). Here's
Read more…Dear Andropilot users,
I'm looking for some experienced andropilot users to give a new feature a try: sharing via droneshare. I've added slick G+, google earth and gmail links to (optionally) share your tlogs with friends and diydrones members.
If you
Read more…Because I want to use a few features that are easier in that release. 0.2% of users of andropilot currently are using anything older than 4.0 (and I'm not sure if they are even really here).
If you are using Android 3.1 and this would cut you off, pl

* Rssi speech warning threshold
So,
I use a service called Flurry to get (anonymized) usage data on Andropilot. One thing I've noticed is that there is a pretty high percentage of German language users:
Are any of "Sie Deutsch sprechenden Menschen" would be willing to translate And
Read more…Thank you Arthur for pointing me to the recently released FTDI native library for android. I added this library to Andropilot and now the following links should all be just as fast as their Mission Planner equivalents:
Hi ya'll,
Can one of you experienced Andropilot users who have the following configuration try something for me?
Required test configuration:
Hi ya'll,
So I'm poking around on my 3dr radio trying to increase SNR - I suspect I'm picking up a fair amount of noise from USB land. It would really help to have a schematic. I tried opening the eagle files in eagle 5.11.0 in Linux but it complain
Read more…A quick release to fix a couple of requests I forgot to include in 1.2.05:
# 1.2.07
* Scale down the gamepad inputs so they have more useful dynamic range
* Fix gamepad elevator direction
* Add support for multipane view on Note2 sized devices
* Disallow
Some good bug fixes and cool new features (gamepad support should be tested only carefully):
# 1.2.05
* Gamepad support ready for alpha testing. Press Y to do RTL, press L1 to toggle fence mode, use the two joysticks like a RC controller, press start t
Or perhaps some bit of payload that comes across in some other mavlink packet?
I know practically nothing about the copter codebase and I'd like to start collecting some usage data to figure out # flying quads vs. hex, average flight times, etc...

Read more…Some users reported that their brand of bluetooth adapter was not recognized. This change should fix that:

* Add support for another FTDI device type
* Display groundspeed on the overview
* Allow editing waypoint advanced parameters
* Add menu option to manually level an Arduplane (useful at the field sometimes)
# 1.2.00
* Add support for bluetooth serial links. Thanks to Pieter@diydrones for donating a bluetooth adapter for me to develop with.
* Default to speech on for new installs
* Cope with virgin APMs that don't have a GPS and therefore have no waypoints
