Richard Boyhan replied to Maciej Karpinski's discussion Pixhawk placement near COG

Richard Boyhan replied to Santosh Sharma's discussion Quadcopter with APM 2.6 and Arducopter 3.1 flipping backwards

Thanks for the post."

Richard Boyhan replied to Alberto Mennella's discussion Pause a Mission
"If you restart a mission it starts at the beginning. You can load another mission with telemetry and start that new mission. You can also with mission planner tell your craft to fly to a point on your map, which allows you to fly a manual flight, 1…"
