    Hola Nono,

    ?Que version de placa estas utilizado, roja o azul?

    Which version of the Shield are you using, red or blue?
  • Hola Jordi! usando un GPS EB85 si lo conecto en la placa de abajo se activa el led "lock" pero si lo conecto en la placa de arriba no. Se queda como si no tuviera cobertura de satelites. Tienes idea de que puede estar pasando? Gracias.

    Hello Jordi! using a GPS EB85 I down connect if it in the plate it activates the LED " lock" I connect but it in the plate of above no. remains as if it did not have cover of satellites. You have idea that it can be happening? Thanks.
  • i didn't say to click on it!!
    it is just to see if it is listed! if it is then it will work cause the folder and files inside are recognized

    hope that helps
  • with the 0017 version you need to put the files in the folders as so:
    \arduino-0017\hardware\libraries\ArduPilot_Header\Easystar.h

    close and start again arduino IDE, go into sketch >import library:
    ArduPilot_Header should be into the list

    if it is into the list it should now works...

    Whooper, what version of Arduino are you using? What version of ArduPilot code. There are no compile issues with the current code and current Arduino, so there's something funky in your installation.
  • Thanks all! All has already earned!!!
  • thank you Peter for this great explanation!
    sounds very good for what i want to do !!

    i'll try to implement that soon.

    i had the maiden fly today (with ardupilot and video) and it flew great , well not at first but after a bit of tweaking autopilot worked great exept for a little altitude problem...

    the plane is heading and turning very good but it is going a bit down all the time....

    what should i try to modify to keep altitude?
    maybe the airspeed setting ? but even with manual throttle it is going down a bit
    or maybe the pitch setting that is set to 0 for easystar???

    i'll try to put a video online (actually editing it)

    so happy to learn so much stuff in here!!!!!
    good work everyone

    Matt,

    The Vtail was tested on ground, never on air. Also could be tricky set it up the first time and synchronize it with the radio.
  • alexandr,
    first of all you should remove the arduino-0016 software to be sure...
    and
    it seems that with the new 17 arduino IDE you have to close the IDE after copying the .h files to :
    \arduino-0017-win\hardware\libraries\ArduPilot_Headers (ArduPilot_Headers is a folder you are making)
    and restart it again

    now you can check if ArduPilot_Headers folder is detected by going to tool and upload libraries ( i think, i'm not home)

    ArduPilot_Headers should be there with the others (EEprom Ethernet etc...)

    hope that works
