Hi,
I'm thinking about trying a motor tail with a fix pitch propeller, to simplify my helicopter. I've seen some people doing so on some 500 helis (scale build) and looks like it's working but I've never seen any feedback of performance.
My purpose is

Is there any news about the development of the single/coaxial copters? I'm very interested in when it will be available as a stable release.

I've been flying my heli for a while but I came across a problem, which doesn't happen quite often but it may be important for safety. It's the power failure and autorotation.
Recently I had a major failure of my battery during the flight, the batt

My dog thought my PX4 was delicious and chewed my IO board (he immediately regreted and gave it back to me in two pieces though...).
It's hard to find the IO board at the moment (I'm in the Netherlands) and I'm thinking of using the FMU itself with

I'm setting up an APM heli using a PX4 + IO, but I couldn't find any info of wiring. My setup is a 120 swashplate with a separate direct drive variable pitch tail, which means I have a normal tail servo with an extra motor at the tail to control.
