I recently purchased the Pixhawk Mini. I am unable to connect the receiver.
I am using Futaba receivers - R6208SB and R7008SB. When I connect R6208SB to Pixhawk mini, the led glows red for a second and turns off. When I connect R7008SB, the led glows

To power up the Pixhawk, a 6-pin wire is used to connect the Pixhawk to the power module. In Mateksys PDB there is a 5V supply with only 2 pins, power and ground. So d
I am building a micro drone with Afromini Amaze Rev3. The manual says that the autopilot accepts PPM only. I need to go for a compatible receiver and transmitter.
Currently I have an Orange R415X receiver and a Futaba T14SG transmitter. But I don't t

Should i integrate it with the autopilot/pixhawk through an arduino? Im not sure about this. It would be great
HelloI've built a drone (quadcopter) with Pixhawk as its flight controller. I want to navigate this drone indoors where GPS signals are absent. I came across a few methods but I couldn't find out how to do it.1. Camera, laser scanner, IMU (simultaneo

I read about PID tuning of the drone. I understood the basics. I would like to go in depth and read on how to calculate P I and D values. If anyone knows any links for PID calculation of drones please share.
Thank you.
