I have a large octo With powerful motors. It's been in the air many times.
I did some work on it today, changing the camera gimbal. I also installed a New 5,8ghz video tx and a trigger Circuit for operating the shutter on the camera. The shutter and v

I would like to add several waypoints in Mission planner, with specific altitudes, and trigger camera shutter between each waypoint. Then upload waypoints to APM. Out in the Field I want to

I've been away from the Arducopter community for around 2 years now. I never got the early APM1.x to work stable, so I've been using other FC's the last couple of years.
Do you think the newest Arducopter is a stable/solid solution now? Is it
Read more…With Ardupirates and earlier versions of Arducopter I had a problem with gyro drift. I thought this was not a problem with the 2.0.46 version I'm running now, but I have started to notice it again when flying in windy conditions.

I guess I have to do this by changing code? Probably one of thes
Read more…With Ardupirates code my quad had lots of thrust available to carry camera. It was unstable if giving full thrust, so I had to turn down the thrust to about 75% by adjusting throttle Endpoint(EPA) on my transmitter.
With AC2.0.46 my quad just barely

Everything seemed ok. I tested stabilize, alt hold, loiter and rtl. After a couple of batteries the qu

The quad flies ok in stable mode when I trim the sticks, it hovers perfectly for a while. But after short time, the center of the sticks is not neutral anymore. After a while, max stick input is almost not enough to keep the quad straigh
