"If the THR_MAX fixed your throttle issue, then the next thing you probably need to do is tune your PID's. That is something I'm still learning so one of the more experienced folks here could probably give better guidance on that topic than I could…"

"No problem. Looking at the screenshot you posted I personally would turn down your hover throttle to something around 500. As it is in that picture you are telling it that it needs to be near high throttle just to maintain a hover."

"In Mission Planner, Advanced Parameters, Throttle Maximum. It should be the last entry in the list. Alternatively you can go to Mission Planner, Full Parameter List, THR_MAX."

"I just posted the same thing a day or two. Make sure your MAX_THR is set to 1000 and not 80. See the link below.

"After doing some digging via Google, YouTube, and Arducopter Forum, I was able to find a solution to my problem. For some reason, when I installed the firmware onto my APM 2.6, it had set MAX_THR to 80 when it should have been 1000. I changed that…"

"My issue is that when giving throttle there is no in between. Its either low or high and high is not very fast at all compared to the other motors. In elevator, aileron, and rudder given any input the motors react as one would expect. If I don't…"

"Thank you Johann and Bill. The help is greatly appreciated!

So to use the AR6200 with the APM 2.6, I just need to add a 3 wire servo lead from each of the receiver channels to the corresponding channels of the APM and the built in encoder will…"

"I'm not quite sure I completely understand what you are saying. The AR6200 Receiver is a PPM receiver as far as I understand it. With a PPM Encoder built into the APM 2.6, why would I need the item you linked to in the store?"
