"jason -
 2.0.34 is simply AMAZING! I have not felt comfortable with my quad ever since removing the Gaui gyro, until tonight. Yaw is rock solid, job well done. I had a couple wobbly moments but the default PID feels pretty good, minor tuning for…"

"Telemetry port is used, all sensors come from ACM except motor battery voltage which is pulled from balance port direct to remzibi.
 Altitude is not playing nice, compass should be used (if available) over gps course, and still need to get current…"

Kevin M. commented on Kevin M.'s blog post Gaui 330X-S / ArduCopter 2 / Remzibi OSD
"Updated to 2.0.31b modified with Remzibi OSD code.

Kevin M. replied to Brandon's discussion first tests on quad: it takes off and immediately goes forward
"Had a similar problem with my setup, however it was back and to the right. I ran level several times, watched for drift with sensors, couldn't figure it out. I brushed the ESC on the back right side and it was quite warm where all the rest were cool…"

Kevin M. replied to Rob. S's discussion cant seem to arm motors
"Had this happen a few times when loading code. Re-run radio setup and don't push right really hard on the stick, then see if it will arm. I believe full right stick in calibration is more stick than what I was giving it to arm."
