After my plane has flown its waypoints it returns home, as it should. But how can I get it to start the mission again, without having to land and restart ? So what I want to do is be able to toggle out of auto mode into say manual, then toggle back…
"Fabian, thanks for the reply. I wondered the same thing, but Chris mentioned earlier that the log won't show No. of sats.
What did you mean by "alternating too" ? Did you see somewhere that the gps got lock then lost it ?
My suspicion is the GPS…"

"Thanks Chris, just wasn't sure if it was something I had done, and whether it was related to the issues.
How do I go about getting a log?"

"Chris, I had tried RTL also, but it reacted the same.
Do you mean a screen shot of my waypoints ?
No airspeed sensor fitted. I used FBW A I think. The one with manual throttle control."

Hi all,First a little background.Ive been using ardupilot for a while now. I had the original working well, and had flights out to 9km with great success. But then I updated the software and had to start all over. No problem I thought, a good excuse…
"Hi Chris,
I'm running 2.6. I haven't updated to the latest version as mine was working fine, apart from the RTL issue.
I always wait for.the blue gps light to light on the imu before flying. But it seems like ardupilot records the co ordinates…"

On my first power up for some reason RTL is messed up. I always check that this feature works befor I go off flying. But it gets home wrong the first time. If I then disconnect the battery and restart it gets it right.Anyone have an idea as to…
"actually I was suggesting you CAN mount the GPS inside the plane. But test it too, just to be sure.
I'm not sure that the motor will effect the IR sensor. Although I have never mounted them that close either. Again, you might be best to test it to…"

"Just a note on mounting GPS modules. I notice most people mount them outside the fuse. I have both of mine inside and have never had a problem getting lock. I routinely get 10 sats. Signals have no problem going through foam. Just a tip."
"ok I give up where is the "IDE libraries folder" ? I must be thick."
"I just tried that code to bench test my mega also, but I get "51:error APM_RC.h: no such file or directory""
"I love the receiver antenna. It looks just like a paper roll holder! oh hang on..........8-)"
"Not sure why you would want to fly with rudder when it has ailerons. It works very well with them on a Y harness."
