Development Update, V4.0 Autopilot from Dean Goedde on Vimeo. This system sounds promising!
"I would remove the washers. Use a cup of boiling water to soften the glue so you don't tear the foam"
"Congrats!"
Hope one didn't get away from Sparkfun HQ!http://www.9news.com/news/article/268207/188/Mystery-object-nearly-...
Is there an anti-static coating that can be put on APM2, or APM 1? Are there components other than the barometer that cant be coated? Just asking as I'm tired of commiting ESD crimes against my APM!
Have a pitch (fwd/aft) trim problem with a quad and hex with the current 2.1.1, it need max sub trim and almost max normal trim to stay centered in no wind. I know its not the aircraft motors or esc's as I am experiencing the same issues with both…
Santa brought me camera stabilization today!I have camera stab working on a hex with the current code and there are no problems. Shortly thereafter I started using channel 6 for in flight tuning, as opposed to telemetry, and I like it. I noticed…
Anybody out there using castle ice 50 esc's on their quad? If so what were your castle link settings? I put together a large 6s quad (using extra airplane parts) and I am having a hard time getting it tuned up. Cant get the thing to stop…
Hello,Have the current .86 mission planner for a quad. My xbee connects and I can see position data but I can't change my pid's, setups also work. I get the pid setting i wanted to change followed by "failed". Happens on all pids. Worked…
I have the Airspeed Kit with MPXV7002DP. I have the dual tube setup, one pitot and one static. Which port on the sensor is pitot and which is static? It talks about it in setup but I do not have the single tube system.Thanx
"Just updated mission planner and quad code to 39b. Everything sets up ok but all my params are gone in alt hold in config. This includes trying to load old params, nothing gets into the box. Is this normal for this upgrade?"
"I feel the same way. "
"Rui, i had a problem with esc arming and i suspected the board (on page 8) and since resoldering all pins I have had no issues. My solder connections looked good under a magnifier but it looks like there were some flaws."
"Can you roll .38 back? If so how? I updated and have some esc arming probs and i'm trouble shooting so I'm not saying it's the update- actually I think its my board, its been through hell...When I get the esc's happy the thing flys fine so far..."
Does anybody know what the pid adjustment would be for what seems like pulsing motors in alt hold? All works well and in stabilized all esc/motors work fine, very smooth and controllable-Thanx to the developers! Sonar is active and it looks like its…
Hope this hasn’t been covered before…as I am new to DIY Drone thing…I have the latest arducopter setup on a Gaui quad frame. All works well, except the GPS takes too long to initialize, once initialized, which takes a few minutes, it works fine,…
