"Yes, I am using 1.3.39.1 too, because I thougt the pitch range setting might already be in the GUI. I am on vacation right now, so I can not test anything. I just wanted to confirm that I had some of the issues, too. I first thought the wifi…"

"I am running1.0 on a RPi3/Navio+. I connect to MP via wifi and I can confirm that parameter download is really slow. It starts fast for the first few params then it slows down. I also get the "failed to update home position" in different intervals.…"

"Nevermind, I found a solution. When using tcp, APM can act as a client or server. "

"Hi Randy,
I just finished building my new RPi3/Navio+/Wifi based tracker. I would like to test it with a SITL vehicle, via the Mavlink mirror feature in MP.
I have no problem understanding, how I would need to set it up with a serial link to the…"

"The open360tracker sketch runs on an APM2.5, too. The only APM2.5 I had, had the internal compass disabled, so I did not use it.
I use a Crius Aio Pro which is also powered by an Atmega 2560."

Sebastian Schürmann replied to Randy's discussion figuring out the Antenna Tracker
"The open360tracker is a hard- and software project. Two members of the fpv-community.de forum designed the mechanics/case and wrote the arduino sketch. They use a Crius SE as the "brain". I run it on a Crius AIO Pro and there is a guy from spain,…"

"I only used my APM tracker with CR servos, so I am not able to help you here."

Sebastian Schürmann replied to Randy's discussion figuring out the Antenna Tracker
"I do not want to talk about another project here in detail. My APM tracker worked with SITL and refused to work out on the field. Open360tracker works in both cases and supports many telemetry protocols besides mavlink."

Sebastian Schürmann replied to Randy's discussion figuring out the Antenna Tracker
"If you are using missionplanner press ctrl-f to bring up a screen with advanced option. There you can relay the SITL mavlink stream to a comport of your computer. I tested my APM tracker and now my open360tracker that way."

"Try setting normal/reverse in the full parameter list. Sometimes the settings in the other screens have no effect."

Sebastian Schürmann replied to Randy's discussion figuring out the Antenna Tracker
"I am using a APM2.5 in my tracker at the moment. I always thought it was a big advantage of the project, to be able to use old hardware, that would otherwise be collecting dust.
Since I wanted to try the new version, I put one of my Navios in my…"

"Greg, did you change the setings for serial3 to mavlink telemetry and baudrate matching your radios?"

"Hi Greg,

I have a Raspberry Pi connected to my HKPilot 2.5.2 via USB. I soldered extra pins to the HKPilot to use UART2 with the 3dr radio, but I think there is a way to assign the telemetry port to UART2 with a solder pad"

"I flew/drove circles around my tracker and it followed all the time. Both simulated and real vehicles."
