"Hi,
I'm using several Reach units for aerial mapping. They work very well, but I only do post processing. I also tested the RTK mode and it worked also very well, I think about 90% of 15 h of in air time I had a fix. You only need a 3dr telemetry…"

"Interesting claim.
I have been flying last year for more than 100 h (in air time) and mapped more than 1.500 ha with diy copters bulid from cheap china stuff as well as mRo autopilots and I have never experienced a single flyaway. I had some…"

"Hi,
I'm only using 2 compasses. I had no further problems after solving the initial orientation problem. I think the best is to check the orientation of each compass when all other compasses are deactivated. Arducopter 3.6 should improve the compass…"

"This discussion started with the question how to avoid "drone defender", a jammer only available to authorities. Did you read the question? Its not about general strategies to handle gnss loss. Its about continuing a mission if gnss is lost.

"I don't get your argument.
Anyhow, I don't see why anyone should try to avoid jamming with diy methods which are lacking extensive testing. Someone who does that is simple not acting responsibly. I don't see what is bad about beeing a good fellow…"

"I think one of the scenarios where a drone would meet a jammer is when delivering drugs, weapons and phones to prisons. Or delivering explosives to protected areas.
I don't think it has something to do with censorship if people who know how to avoid…"

"I wonder why there should be a legal scenario to avoid such a jammer. Either this jammer is used by the state authorities and it is illigal to fly there, or the jammer is used illegally and you should report the use of the jammer to the state…"
"I will try to isolate the battery and the camera together against vibrations and hope the weight of the battery will do the job. I had not had the time to try it yet."
Hi,I have build a small quadcopter which I want to use for low quality/high risk mapping tasks. Unfortunately the Raspberry Pi camera shows extreamly high jello, there are serveral horizontal stripes going through the picture.Has anyone experience…
"I have mapped 370 ha in the last days with strong wind (>10m/s). I started my new build without any previous test flight and was not able to atutune it. Anyhow, Arducopter and the X2.1 managed to handle 24 flights/10 hours of total flight time…"
"Hi Andreas,
with Arducopter 3.5 it did not work out of the box but crashed on first take-off destroying 2 T-Motor CF props ;-(. My fault because I'm under pressure to finish the maschine to go mapping and skipped some in depth testing.
With…"

"Hi Phillip,
actually I'm having trouble now to figure out how to configure the orientation correctly. I figured out dad I have to change the BRD_TYPE parameter to 20 but the compass is still pointing in the wrong direction.
I will give feedback as…"

Hi,I have ordered an uBlox neo m8t module at Drotek. It arrived yesterday in the condition depicted below (the right one). I think that is not acceptable since the other module (the left one) has not the same scratches, marks and is not dirty as…
