"Awesome, thanks for the idea!! Just ordered a couple sub micro servos now. Only need one, but when they are so cheap, might as well get a couple extra for future projects...haha!"
"Is there some documentation as to what keyboard function are available in Mission Planner?"
Has anyone figured out how to use the APM to trigger a GoPro? I want to trigger it in still mode, or be able to start and stop the video. I have a wifi remote, but all the APM documentation says you have to disable Wifi to fly. I assume it poses an…
I have an old joystick hooked up and am just using it for the buttons. (eventually want to build a custom panel for a GCS)I have it figured out to use the buttons to Arm/Disarm and Change the modes, but I was hoping there would be more options to…
"That would be cool too!"
"I just started playing around with the Tower App, only using my phone, it works greats. I only have an iPad, so I haven't been able to try using it on a tablet yet, my brother has an android tablet, so when he gets back from vacation we will be…"
"Awesome, i can't wait to see what they come up with."
Is there any thought about implementing a more robust RTL feature? I would like to be able to program a route that the aircraft will follow when commanded to return home, or when the link is lost. This would be to route around objects that cannot be…

"I know you didn't write this article, but as a graduate of the UAS program at the University of North Dakota, I disagree with the fact that UND is a "regular" college. UND is one of the largest aviation schools in the world, and we had a degree…"
"Probably have better luck in the ArduCopter section...."
I thought I used to have more than 3 options for the "do action" command on the actions tab of MP. All I have is Loiter Unlimited, Return to launch, and preflight calibration. Am I missing something? if not, is there a way to add custom ones here?
Is there anyway I can enable a geofence from MP? I only have a 6 ch. radio (I know should have started bigger), and ch 5 and 6 are mixed together to give me 4 modes (two position switches). Is it a bad idea to run two receivers into the APM? That is…
"Further investigation make me believe that since I was in FBW-A, the APM somehow got confused and thought it was holding max pitch up, while in reality, it was pitched down. But since it thought it was at the max pitch, it couldn't do anything to…"
