"Did you ever find out if APM 2.6 is able to arm? My rover can steer but won't drive. Psylokz said:
Hello. I've searched but cannot locate an answer. I'm using APM 2.6 and Rover 2.5. After my 150lb rover almost rolled through my living room wall…"

"You guys are doing great work. We need some $200-400USD options with optical zoom."
"Nice work yangda. Any cost friendly options to get my rig one of these?"
"I visited the website but couldn't find the "do good" link where you donate one of these to my charity. Free loaner is fine too! :)"
"Seriously folks, who registers on day one?
Oh, and, do you think anyone gets reprimanded for these issues? Gotta love the double standard parasite that is gov. "

"How was the process to change to mode 2? It looks like stock is mode 1."
"Per AMA
• You will not be required to register every aircraft individually. You only need to register yourself and can affix one registration number to all your aircraft."

"Can someone please post a follow-up thread once they register? I'd like to see the form, opinion of the overall process and any follow-up emails, etc.
Being a responsible drone flyer I think this is ridiculous - I'm current on my AMA stuff, I've…"

"A rover for water! Nice work. What's considered an ESC on a full size boat? "
"Rob (sorry for the name typo above).
John, great point about the boomerang! The level of 'group think' in these agencies must be absurd. There needs to be a clear distinction between autonomous and line of sight aircraft. They are not the same…"

"Bob, you're right. I was thinking line of sight vs autonomous but I see that UAV has two categories... 1. Autonomous and 2. Remotely piloted. Using this wiki definition you can say any size (even micro hand sized) flying thing is a drone. But most…"
"I can already imagine all the ignorant police, park rangers, whomever that don't understand UAS vs. non-UAS. My 600mm frame CC3D powered quad would be easily be mistaken for UAS just cause it has a cool looking FPV antenna..

"Thanks Felixrising, this is very helpful. I think a 1P may be possible using these batteries that are rated for 20am each! Even better they are rated at 3100mah. At a 150 grams (3 batteries in series) I'd be close to 2900mah with 20amps.
Question…"

"One other thing, what do you think about just this?
3 2900mah in series to provide 12v? Using 3 batteries is 138 grams but the mah would be better than my lipo. This would save me 78grams which happens to be the weight of the GoPro. Do you think…"

"Yes, the MN1806 T-Motors. I'm very impressed with this motor so far.
How do you get the 5500mah number on this config?
I picture the below kind of set-up, 6 of these 2900mah lions in series? Each individual battery weights 46g that's 276g total,…"

"I had to move the Telemetry module to the front since it was interfering with the VTX. Not much, but enough "crackling" to make it annoying. The antenna cannot be seen from the FPV cam nor the GoPro. Also changed the GPS mount to 1. get it further…"
