  • switch loiter mode is only the way for the quad stay on the gps position, or before we must define loiter point with a another switch like channel 7 ?

  • Do we have a release date for .50?  Days, Weeks ???

    Thanks

  • Pull from Git.  .50 is working pretty darn well on me quad and Y6.

  • Yes Dave, I know. I was just thinking that if .50 comes with major changes I might have to start tweaking parameters once again when transitioning from .49. Not a problem but not optimal ;)

  • You can always just update your firmware (and backup any tunings you have made) when it comes out if you carry on with 49 now.

  • Development team: - When might we expect 2.0.50 release?

    (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.

    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.

Drone flying to non visible point

Hi there,I encountered a problem, while flying in auto mode, with approching to point that was not set by trajectory and is not visible after downloading mission from flight controller by Mission Planner. Does anybody encountered similar problem. The situation is that in the middle flight I stopped the UAV and uploaded new mission and after changing to auto mode it starts to fly in some direction. It goes straight to some point, so I assume it's not mechanical problem. I attached the link to…

I have been Reading Chris Olsen posts and watching his videos on Arducopter with traditional Helis using a Pixhawk.I have inherited an older Trex 450 heli with the old Align 3G FBL hardware.  The FBL controller appears to be bad.  So I have an old APM 2.5 without a compass or GPS on board.  I just want to replace the failed Align 3G FBL system with the APM.Now I have to mount the APM under the skids on the heli so the APM will be upside down.I have Two questions.1)  Is the AHRS_ORIENTATION=8…
