Michel Lubbers replied to Arturo Pelayo's discussion iPod/iPad battery? in ArduCopter User Group
"Hi Arturo,

Hot swappable battery packs could be very handy.
Never think about it but if you look to swappable hard drives............
Inductive charging could also handy if you build a fully autonomous bot.

"@ Doug & Robert,
 
All the soldering looks ok under the microscope.
There is a possibility that the i2c bus not functioning properly.
Is there anyway to test the i2c?

"The answer is Ardu V2.4, this version supports the V2 shield."

Michel Lubbers commented on Chris Anderson's blog post ArduPilot (Legacy) main page
"Hi,

To avoid unplug GPS while programming I have ordered the V2 shield.
With this new shield it is not possible to get a GPS lock, the blue led flashes constantly.
If I uses my old shield I get a fix within a few seconds.
What could be wrong?…"

Michel Lubbers commented on Dimitar Kolev's blog post Airtec in Frankfurt 3-5 Nov - anybody plan to visit?
"Hi Dimitar,

Sounds very interesting, But spending 450 euro's for conferences and exhibitions are not really an option.
Do you know if its interesting enough to go to airtec without partipicitate in the readings and conferences.

"I have successfully flash the V1.5 today, I try V1.6 no errors during programming but the AP doesn't respond if I switch it on. No problem I am migrating to the Jeti 2.4 soon, lost of signal recognition is useless with 2.4. Still have the problem no…"

"Update,

Thinks going weirder.
If I turn the Z sensor 180 degrees and recalibrate the problem moves to the aileron (stays fixed) and my elevator stabilizes normaly in fly by wire mode.
I try this several times and each time the problem switches."

"Hi Chris,

Thanks for your reply
No with V1.6 nohing works only manual mode. With original failsave firmware loaded I have the above mentioned problems.
I still use FM but a 2.4 Jeti upgrade is ordered.

Michel Lubbers commented on Chris Anderson's blog post ArduPilot (Legacy) main page
"Hi Chris,

Yes its the same.
Is it possible that the failsave is corrupt?
I try to load V1.6, no errors but I am unable to switch to AP mode only manual stat and no blinking leds.
I followed exactly the tutorial and uses a AVRISP mk2 programmer.
The…"

If I load V2.2.3 everything seems to work normal.
So I download a "fresh" V23 and again no stabilisation on elevator."

"Hi,

Could anybody explain the following strange behaviour.
While flying in waypoint/RTL mode my plane stabilizes aileron and elevator,
But if I unplug the GPS (fly by wire) the plane stabilizes only on aileron, my elevator gives eprox. 30 percent…"
