Tim Dickinson replied to Grzegorz Radziwiłko's discussion ESC won't calibrate to APM unless the lower throttle is 900.
"Have you tried calibrating the esc without the apm? Grzegorz Radziwiłko said:
I have already reversed it along with pitch i believe."

"If your motors stopping at the highest throttle might be that your throttle need to be reversed. I have an at10 and found that I needed to reverse the throttle. Otherwise when the throttle is at low its really at the highest point. 

What does your…"

Is it possible to control the progression of a waypoint mission though an RC channel? So the knob at 50% and the quad will fly to 50% mark in the mission?

Tim Dickinson replied to Rhosyn's discussion Low Cost, 3-Axis Gimbal--- Opinions/Experience Needed
"I would go with the Storm32 gimbal. It has nice integration with the pixhawk. If only one of your motors is bad then just replace it and your gimbal will work fine.

Tim Dickinson replied to Jack Wu's discussion Advice Needed for F450 Custom Build
"The 11"x4.7 props might be under powered for that size battery. I suspect the "2.5kg" weight you are stating is underestimating it. You are most likely going to have some sort of obstacle avoidance system, sonar flow sensor and suck. My quad comes…"

Tim Dickinson replied to Zac Johnson's discussion Will lawmate 1000mw 1.2-1.3 fpv system interfere with my setup (apm 915mhz + 2.4ghz 9x)?
"2.4ghz wont get you out to 3+km.

Why do you think you need a 1W 1.2ghz transmitter. You can get away with 200mw at 3km. Anyways harmonics only goes up in the spectrum.. So if anything the 915mhz will affect your 1.2 and 2.4ghz systems, and 1.2ghz…"
