New: Configuration file repository for ArduCopter and APM

Posted by Chris Anderson on June 26, 2011 at 7:27pm

3689414330?profile=originalOne of the cool features of the Mission Planner is that you can load and save configuration files. So you can not only have different files for different aircraft, but also share them with others.

 

This is particularly handy for common airframes. Once someone has tuned one well, they can upload their configuration file and save others the trouble of having to go through the same process.

 

I've now created a place in the APM and ArduCopter wikis that you can use to share configuration files. Please post your files in the comments here and I'll upload them to the relevant wikis as they come in.

 

The APM Configuration File Repository is here.

 

The AC2 Configuration File Repository is here.

 

*** Note, 2.0.26, and 2.0.27 had a flaw that switched Alt_hold and Simple mode. Don't fly it. This is fixed in 2.0.28. ***

    Weird. It looks like the "add file" button only shows up in discussion forum comments, not blog post comments. Anyway, if you just post it anywhere else as a zip and post the link here that would be great.

    Fabien, can you check again or explain the problem you're seeing more?  I've clicked on all the links above and they all seem fine.  Maybe it was a temporary problem?

  • Fabien Facker July 25, 2011 at 5:44pm
    i want to donwload the file buts link dont work, maybe ist broken.
  • Jose Angel June 27, 2011 at 8:35am
    I suggest to include at least your frame type/orientation, motor to motor distance, motor model and any modification on default parameters, for example:

    QuadX,50cm,KDA20-22L | YAW_OPTION=0, YAW_P=0.21 (non real values!)

    I hope that everyone with an stable arducopter could contribute with his setup.
  • I.S. June 27, 2011 at 7:30am
    I think he means another text box included in param file, but that's ok.

    Pieter: sure, just include any explanatory text in your comment, with the config file, and I'll add it to the wiki.
