"Used mine today to locate a model rocket in a field. Was fun and useful. "
"Chris,
Thanks for the reply. Honestly I didnt know the larger motors would change tuning. Planning on lifting cameras and things I have not yet thought of :) like most people. Just figured as long as I am getting started might as well start with the…"

"Hi,
I just ordered a 3DR ArduCopter Hexa-B along with the electronics. I can not find a configuration file for the apm 2.5 for this machine. I will be using the 880 kv motors with the 11x4.7 props if that makes a difference.
A link or some info on…"

"Hi,
I just ordered the 3DR ArduCopter Hexa-B with everything you have listed except a different GPS. Wondering if you could share your configuration file with me. I have been looking for a configuration file for the Hexa-B with no luck.
This will…"

"Hi,
Sorry no answer to your question. I too am wondering if there have been any testing in cold temperatures with the APM 2 or 2.5 boards. I have mine mounted on a Skywalker and plan on flying day and night missions this winter. I usually dont fly…"

"Hi,
These attached parameters have worked great for me. Flying a 1900mm wingspan Skywalker but the slightly wider wings should not change much. Set up is using AMP 2.5 a 3 cell 5000 mah and a 4400 mah pack in parallel. AXI 2814/16 Xoar 10-7 3…"

Hi,I just got the 3DR radio today and am trying to get it working. Following the instructions I get to the part where it says to click on the load settings tab in the mission planner and this error comes up every time.See attached screen shot.I have…
"OK after trying many things today the AMP drove itself into the dirt. Testing today proved no guidance to GPS locations. During my third test flight while watching the plane circle and fly around lost in the air it suddenly went straight 90 deg down…"
"Does anyone have a video or You tube video of planning a mission for the APM 2. I am hoping I am doing something really stupid wrong here. Last night again I hooked up my computer to the APM and the GPS found my location with no issues. Everything…"
"OK I just found a data log that had a few bits of flight recorded. It says GPS: no fix. Before I take off it says GPS 3Dfix. but in the air there is no fix? My APM2 is mounted in the front of the plane with only the clear canopy over the GPS.
On…"

"One thought I just had while reading another post. Would the hatch magnets have any affect on the APM2?"
HI everyone,I have been struggling with the APM2 that I have just installed and have been trying to fly in Auto and RTL modes. I do have the plane flying great in the stabilize mode and the fly by wire mode also works.When I switch the plane to RTL…
"Is this project still something you are working on?
I would recommend a Zenoah engine. They are a very high quality engine that should run for a very long time. Sold through Horizon Hobby. Here is a link to there home page.…"

OK I just flew the Fiberglass Skywalker for the first time today. Here is a list of the components I used on this plane including the weight of the plane. Also attached is a screen shot of the Castle Data log from the ESC. The reason I am posting…
"HI,
I am assembling a fiberglass skywalker now and am planning on using these. I will make a small plywood mount plate with some balsa contoured filler pieces. Hopefully this thing will be nice and soft. If it is too stiff I plan on making a couple…"
