Mahesh M replied to Doug Andriuk's discussion Excessive Lost Packets 3dr V2 Radios, Link quality <18%
"Hi,

I connected my APM 2.0 to the Mission Planner using the USB. MP shows 0 packet loss and link quality 100%. I am using Mission Planner 1.3.18.

I did a flight with the same Autopilot and 3DR setup. I was able to fly about 200m away from the GCS.…"

Mahesh M replied to Doug Andriuk's discussion Excessive Lost Packets 3dr V2 Radios, Link quality <18%
"I am facing the same problem. rssi/remrssi around 200, noise/remnoise around 50. Mission Planner Link Stats shows ever increasing Pkts Lost and link quality <20%.

I am able to connect Mission Planner and the Aircraft over the 3dr radio link. They…"

Mahesh M replied to Mahesh M's discussion How to stop circling around waypoints
"Thank you for the info Tridge.
@ Gábor Zoltán Here is a screenshot of the full autopilot HIL. It follows the flight plan so perfectly that the trace is totally overlapped. The simulation was for wind speed 0 in X-Plane-10. The way point radius is…"

Mahesh M replied to Mahesh M's discussion How to stop circling around waypoints
"Hi Mike, Doug,

Problem solved !!! Opening up the way point radius worked. I was using a radius of  10 m. For testing I increased it to 127 m and the circling stopped. I need to find an optimum way point radius.

Thank you for your suggestions,…"

Hi,During HIL simulation, with the aircraft  in AUTO mode, I find the autopilot circling around some waypoints. And sometimes it circles around all of them.Any ideas how to stop this circling? Can the autopilot fly the aircraft close to a waypoint…

Mahesh M replied to Mahesh M's discussion Arduplane - no Attitude indication on Artificial Horizon of APM planner
"Hi,
I am facing the same problem again ... just when I thought that it was solved !

I was using the pre-compiled ArduPlane-2.34 binaries through APM Planner for the hardware checks as well as for HIL simulation. The HIL works very well with the…"

Mahesh M replied to Mahesh M's discussion MissionPlanner to FlightGear - "Error reading data"
"Thank you Richard, Michael

Problem Solved !!!
I noticed that in the long list of "Error Reading Data" on the FlightGear's terminal window there was a message of longer length occasionally scrolling by. I could read it after i took a screenshot to…"

"Problem listed above SOLVED!!! .

For APM1 with 2560 hardware and ArduPlane the SLIDE SWITCH needs to be in "fly" position (away from the edge, toward the GPS connector). Once set the attitudes are indicated on the Mission Planner Artificial Horizon…"
