Frenchguy commented on Liam Lambkin's blog post Using Navspark as the primary GPS for APM
"I haven't tried mine yet but this GPS also support Glonass (or the Chinese equivalent depending on the model), so this could get you some nice precision."

"People post and forget. It's easy to get motivated to do one write up after a project completion but hard to actually slow down and help other."

Frenchguy commented on Todd Hill's blog post Futaba T8J Transmitter Mode Selection
"Jesse, did your screen look exactly like this? Is your T8J recent? Mine look very different: http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/pixhawk-futaba-t8j-6-modes-conf...

In any case, the order shouldn't matter much because you get to allocate what mode…"

"@Hein, I followed your instructions but I end up with the Mid-C Low-D position to be one state too low (at 1514):
Any idea what could be affecting it, it should be in the PWM 1361-1490 range. All my screens are the same as yours but the P.MIX5 (1/2)…"

Disclaimer: I don't know what I am doing. This seems a bit more complicated than other solutions I have found (since I had to use the Sub Trim) but it works with what is the latest T8J firmware (I think I have the latest but cannot confirm since I…

Frenchguy commented on Oliver's blog post ACM/APM Futaba T8FG (Super) Mode configuration for all 6 modes
"It seems most of the recipes here use an old version of the Futaba T8J firmware? Most of the screens I have don't work like this. Can someone with a recent T8J set up with APM with modes show screenshots?

As I understand it AUX Channels, PMixes &…"

Frenchguy commented on Jesse's blog post Next Generation of Ground Station
"I imagine that all of the Ardustation Mega features were forked in the initial Ardustation 3 (and later rewritten mostly, I think) at the time. I feel the TFT/LCD screen I have selected is quite visible in the daylight."

Frenchguy commented on Jesse's blog post Next Generation of Ground Station
"Anyone else interested in collaborating on Ardustation3? It seems Jesse is pretty busy with other stuff. I feel that for <$50 + GPS ($40?) / telemetry ($25?) and a 3D enclsure we could get something quite amazing going. "
