Tristani says the FAA has to get a handle on this because drones will grow in popularity and even the small ones pose a threat to aircraft.

"Can I upgrade the PPM encoder on my apm 1.4 or is it only for apm 2.5?"
HiWith 2.9.1b engaging Loiter the quad stays for 1-3 seconds and you can hear the motors are controlled, then suddenly it shoots up. Ive read about the throttle mid setting but if thats the case here wouldnt it shoot up straight away?If someone…
"Hi Jani
I have bought the gps from jdrones.
Can I replace my old mtek gps that is connected to my apm1 with a cable(not soldered on) and just plug in this new one or do I have to change configuration in the firmware? (the cable seems to be the same)…"

HiIm using this camera from hobbyking, and whenever i mount it on the frame the gps never get a lock, the blue led just keeps on blinking. When i remove the camera it gets a lock. Ive also tried to get a lock first THEN mount the camera and the blue…
"My apm seems to lock up. I can arm it and spin the motors very carefully, but it freezes suddenly. Looks like it jumps out of armed mode because rearming with the sticks worked.
I wonder if theres an hardware fault or if the firmware reacts to low…"

HiMy copter flies pretty stable except i find it hard to find a position on the throttle stick that makes the copter stay at the same height. Its kind of either going slowly up or slowly down and seems to never stop. Ill make it stay for 1-2 seconds…
Is there a camera stabillization mount available for the 3dr frame? Or does anyone know one that will fit?
Consider this scenario: I want to get the quadcopter up some meter..quite far, not very high but beyond the height where it becomes hard to see its rotation and whether it goes up or down.1. Put it in Loiter mode and use the throttle to rise, but…
"Did the arming procedure change? gps is blinking, and before the red led used to stop flashing when gps had a lock even before you armed it. Now gps is blinking and never stops blinking until I arm it, it then immediately stops blinking. Is this a…"
"I had the same problem and did inflight leveling..hold throttle 20 seconds to the right just like arming, then fly and hold it stable then land."
Is it important to have gps 3D lock (the red lamp glowing, not blinking) for Loitering? Or can it still work if the red lamp is flashing?
"Is 2.4 zip available somewhere to test? Or do I have to download on GIT? If so, whats the git url?"
"I tried to lower stabilize D to 0.06 from 0.12 and it seemed to have noticeable less twitches. (3dr frame everything stock)"
"I get some strange wobbling in air in stable mode. The quad is simple to fly and i dont have to fight it to keep it quite still, but it has some oscillations every 1-3 seconds, like its trying to correct something. When it does this it wobbles but…"
I tried 2.3 for the first time tonight with my 3dr frame and apm1 2560.In stable mode its very stable except an annoyind roll to the right. I have to adjust the stick and then it holds still. I even tried to adjust the stick with the small…
