"I have an issue with althold/gps where my quad is working fine in stabilize, but altohold will shoot the quad up really fast after a few seconds. Seems like the CTUN Alt estimate is glitching badly. Also when EKF is off, the AHRS2 alt estimate…"
"I had a weird issue with FS_THR_VALUE as well (in -rc7:n if I remember correctly).
When I set the Throttle failsafe value to too low (around 970) I got this error. I got rid of it, when I increased failsafe value to 985. (My actual link-loss…"

"For stock Turnigy 9X with the stock 9X8Cv2 receiver the failsafe setup procedure is this:
-Set the transmitter to PPM in SYSTEM SETTINGS->MODEUAT/MODULATION->PPM
-Set FUNC SETTING->E.POINT->THROTTLE to 120%/120% (This changes the maximum throw…"

"Stock Turnigy 9X with the stock 9X8Cv2 receiver has got a configurable failsafe for signal loss.

"I have a similar issue with APM2.6 with ArduPlane V2.78b (f0615253) firmware.
Missionplanner doesn't show any changes for channels 5,6 or 7 when I flip the switches. Signal is ok. Tested with servos and by connencting the m to APM inputs 1-4. Mode…"

"Whoops - My bad. Indeed I've been flying Mode 3 on my quad. :) But I'll give the mode 1 a go some day, since I've flown plane models with it."
"Will do, thanks."
I was playing with my custom built quadrocopter based on Multiwii platform, but had trouble finding a comprehensive guide to stick configuration functions online. I stumbled upon Mr.Hamburger's awesome cheatsheet, but found out that for my Mode 1…
"Awesome stuff. It got inspired and I just might be building a new UAV plane this summer on top of my multirotor experiments. :) "
Thumbsize PCB. BBC has run a story on a device that is cheap, small and seems to have a lot of potential for the UAV world. It can run linux, has ARM11 700Mhz, GPIO, SD/MCC-card slot and HDMI. It's the Raspberry Pi.If this actually comes to…
"Nice work,
I'm actually planning on using wii motion plus and a cheap (< $20 from ebay) 3-axis accelerometer for my quadrocopter stabilisation. I'm using for the arduino though.
ps. Your setup seems to of the same size as mine, any estimation on…"

"Thanks for the detailed explanation. Though I'm planning on using an old extremely slow motorized glider as a test platform - I think I'll manage for now with my old 1Hz GPS that I have lying around.
Ps. Are there any new reasonably priced air…"

"Ok, good to know. Does "optimized for air use" mean, that uBox has better and more accurate altitude positioning than other gps-units? Something to do with the location approximation calculations inside the unit?"
Just came across a "new" module from Sparkfun, that promises 10Hz update rate and has a binary protocol. Does anyone in the community have any experiences working with one of these?Venus GPS ModuleSMA Antenna
"I'm using a cheap one from ebay MMA7260, but a easier to connect one would be ADXL330. If you want to have good ones, sparkfun is full of them. Please inform if you make any progress."
"Hi, I tried to do two tilt compensation with just the two axis CMPS03 and a 3-axis accelerometer - but I failed miserably :)
