"if you look at the hardware status vcc in the logs its right around 4.8 and lower... that should be 5.2... I don't use APM anymore just pixhawk so I don't have a reference point... but I would try some flights using the old way to power your board…"
"ha that sounds cool - and bird of prey is exactly what i thought when I saw it... flys even better than it looks and I have tried an auto launch by just holding it not even throwing and it just takes off... so easy"
"Just wanted to re-share this kickstarter campaign for a plane that I have flown on pixhawk, both FPV and line of sight.

"App is great, what happened to the tracking lines that showed the path of the copter after you setup a survey region ? Tgey disappeared tgis release. ?."
"the scenario of the user landing and turning off transmitter has to be aimed at a less experienced modeler... For you, my recommendation was to use the dragon link to set all channels to exactly how you would like to operate in a failsafe situation."
