(if it´s just around the corner I might put my setting up of a new quad on hold until new FW arrives)
Thank You .. i will post there
@ahmed - please make a post in the forums, where we can reply to your questions better. In the user group, we cannot have threaded replies. Please provide photos, video, and details about your frame and motors and props (custom? ArduCopter2/jDrones? 3DR frame? Other?) What version of Mission Planner and what version of ArduCopter?
Also, please read the manual about troubleshooting, and learn about auto trim, sensor aliasing and vibration, center of gravity, and ground effect.
Finally i connected the quadcopter
and everything its ok the Tuning . all motors run same time and all Speed Control Deeps same time
im trying to fly and trying hover the quadcoper like crazily when i try to take off and fail down its like when the gyro set in more sensevety
i connect the quadcopter with Mission Planer (APM PLANNER)
Then go to (Configuration) -----> AC2

Adil: Set one of your toggle switch modes to Loiter. Wait for GPS lock, then fly and switch into Loiter at the position you want to hold.
