Here a video of an autonomous flight with a Maxi Swift flying wing fully piloted by the firmware ArduPlaneNG v2.x R5 with an All In One Pro (AIOP) full IMU board.This is a porting of the ArduPlane v2 (v2.4+v2.5) firmware and special addons and improvements for the AIOP board that I have added.
The wind was 15 km/h gusting 22 km/h. The flight was very stable in spite of the gusty wind conditions.

  • I solved a problem with the channel mixer elevon. But still I can not find the file " # include  "APM_Config_EasyStar2.h " !!!  Help me, please !!!!

  • Hello Jean Louis and everybody!
    Help me please with my problem. I've got the flying wing and AIOP V2.I loaded firmware ArduPlaneNG V2.x R5, but my elevons works uncorrectly - one elevon works only as roll, another elevon as picth ( in mode "STABILIZE"). In "MANUAL" works well. All settings of the transmitter such as recommended by the Jean Louis.I'm trying to use " # include  "APM_Config_EasyStar2.h ", but I  got a wrong message - no such file... and I can't find this file anywhere... Where I can find this file? Or, am I doing something wrong?

  • Jean Louis,

    Everybody,

    in fact my atmega seems to have its output connected to the pin5 dead.

    is it possible to choose (re adress) outputs to use functionnal outputs?

    Thanks a lot for your help

    Hello Mathieu,

    You may change the motors mapping in the library itself. Look at the file AP_Motors.h in the AP_Motors library.

    I hope this will help you.

    Regards, Jean-Louis

  • The pin 5 of my CRIUS AIOP V1.1 seems to be dead, i have 4.4volts (signal3ground vs 2.2volts for the other pin)

    How can i re allocate motor pin?

    the pin 5 is always used in different config (tri, quad, plane..) :'(

    thanks for your help

  • well with PID_MaxiSwift_APNG2xR6.param  :)

    Hello Ivan,

    You may use:

    #include "APM_Config_EasyStar2.h

    and then load the param file:

    MaxiSwift_PID_ArduPlane273-xp1.param

    look at this link for more infos:
