Stewart Loving-Gibbard commented on Phillip Kocmoud's blog post Introducing the AUAV X2.1 Flight Controller
"Good work on the remote USB connector, this was something I missed on the original X2 vs. standard pixhawk."

Stewart Loving-Gibbard commented on Chris Anderson's blog post VTOL FireFLY6 now available with APM-based autonomy built-in
"Guy McCaldin:
You are correct, while it seems sleazy, it is perfectly OK to charge for binaries compiled from GPL sources, so long as source is made available as well (see https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#DoesTheGPLAllowMoney).
But that's…"

Stewart Loving-Gibbard commented on Andrew Tridgell's blog post APM:Plane 3.4.0 released
"I've been denied on drones-discuss for questions I felt were development questions - things related to code I'd wrote that had been accepted - but which a hurried or imperfectly informed editor might assume were user support. I've also had questions…"

Stewart Loving-Gibbard commented on Andrew Tridgell's blog post APM:Plane 3.4.0 released
"Seems like new RSSI library did not make the APM 2.x builds? Understandable if so, but disappointing."

Stewart Loving-Gibbard commented on Andrew Tridgell's blog post APM:Plane 3.4.0 released
"Since you are using the FrSky X8R with a Pixhawk, you are using SBUS, correct? And unfortunately, the X8R doesn't support putting the RSSI on a PWM channel as part of the SBUS signal, which is what the current RSSI library offers.

But I do have…"

Stewart Loving-Gibbard commented on Andrew Tridgell's blog post APM:Plane 3.4.0 released
"Also, the above documentation shows values with two RSSI_ prefixes ("RSSI_RSSI_CHAN_LOW"). That's not how it will be in Mission Planner; I'm not sure why it is getting produced out that way in the online documentation, it could be some mistake I…"

Stewart Loving-Gibbard commented on Andrew Tridgell's blog post APM:Plane 3.4.0 released
"> Is there a new parameter to set for PWM RSSI support?Yes, you'll find the only available documentation here:http://plane.ardupilot.com/wiki/arduplane-parameters/#rssi__paramet... Planner unfortunately lacks the documentation in the UI so…"

Stewart Loving-Gibbard replied to Steve Cain's discussion Pixhawk PWM input for RSSI (EZUHF)
"CreativeBR:

Because ArduPilot hasn't been able to understand RSSI via a PPM channel, many users of EzUHF with MinimOSD found themselves forced to use a passthrough via the channel directly to the MinimOSD to get RSSI. This meant that while you…"

Stewart Loving-Gibbard replied to Marc MERLIN's discussion Is rxrssi not being logged by APM at all?
"Marc, my patch to add logging of rxrssi was accepted this morning:

https://github.com/diydrones/ardupilot/pull/2804

I would expect it will show up in ArduPlane 2.4 beta 3 and beyond, and in ArduCopter 3.4."
