  Coming from a gliding background, yes, the airspeed sensor is almost essential in a plane.

  Secondly, APM 2.x and all it's clones uses the analogue sensor.

  As does the old APM 1.x, yes, I still fly those !

  Are you certain the digital airspeed sensor works with the APM?  I thought that was Pixhawk and above..

  Hi Patrick.  An Airspeed Sensor is a good idea as without it the APM is "estimating" the airspeed from the other sensors.  Make sure you get a digital one though.

  Thanks.  Grant

  If you don't have an airspeed sensor, you can't calibrate it. Just turn off the airspeed sensor option in MP and those readings and warnings will go away.

  For the best performance, it's good to have an airspeed sensor but you can get by without one as well.

  Hello,
  I bought a skywalker with apm 2.6 & fpv, I learned the basics of piloting aircraft manual. I would take a few days of training to learn the basic use of mission planner and apm 2.6 against remuneration. I am ready to move me in europe and to provide the material, I have not found anyone in France for training so if you can provide me with this please do not hesitate to contact me

  to control throw in auto mode or FBW mode. lower the values of rll2servo_imax and ptch2rvo_imax parameters. do not lower than 500.

  What is the proper method to limit the control throws in Arduplane for an airframe with large control throws (e.g. a 3D plane as an extreme example)?

  Should I lower the P gains, or should I put my transmitter into low rates and calibrate it like that in MP?

  Hi,

  How can I reverse the control surfaces on pitch,, roll works right,, i need the change just pitch,   I am controlling by joystick

  @ tomi.

  By checking or un-checking the "reverse" boxes on the radio calibration page it will change the "autopilot control without affecting normal pass through control. I had the same problem.
