"Victor (and APM community),
I only bought the APM 2.0 last month, but I feel like I share the same frustration! I guess i'm off to an okay start, but I really need to get this thing dialed in so I can take my AP/video to the next level. I upgraded…"

"I think this case is closed! After a lot of self inflicted hair loss I figured it out.
All my troubleshooting lead to the direction Rui went with his most recent suggestion. I deleted some extraneous models in my DX7 and started from scratch. I…"

Hey gang,I recently upgraded to the APM2.0 for my aerial video platform (F550 clone from Hobbyking). I followed all instructions and brushed up on my PID tuning skills, but on my maiden flight the helicopter had some seriously strange…
"Well after some serious trial and error I'm really back at square one now...I will start another post for my issues, but after reverting to my previous board with known working settings I'm actually experiencing some of the same symptoms. Weird…"
"So I just tried Rui's settings for my hex...they seem to be much more stable, but I still don't feel "locked in". The yaw is still out of control and it still randomly drifts in all directions. I'm a little worried that the open source card is above…"
"Okay gang, I'm completely lost and frustrated at this point...
I've been flying my F550 hexa with 2830 750kv motors, 10x4.7 props, 4s 5000mAh, 30A ESC with a Hobbyking control board with MUCH success. Stable, dialed in, etc. I upgraded to what I…"

"How would you convert this to a stand alone camera stabilizer? I have a spare and was thinking the same thing...is it possible?"
I purchased a f550 frame and am currently awaiting my APM2.0 purple setup with integrated GPS. My question: will I be able to mount the board in the middle of the two plates or will I not get a GPS lock? Thanks!Will
"Along the same lines...if you mount a APM 2 board inbetween the plates do you need to run the GPS externally or will it acquire a signal from inside?"
"One more question...
It looks like the x-IMU board is out of stock at their website. Would the ArduIMU+ V2 (Flat) found on diydrones be a similar functioning unit? Also, how much is the x-IMU in USD & is there US distributer?
Thanks,
Will"

"This is definitely something I would be interested in looking at more closely. I am an aerial photographer/videographer and actually have the servo city mount you demonstrate with. I fly traditional pod and boom helicopters and am just getting into…"
