Well i bought an ardupilot main board about a month ago. And i have been fooling around with it for a while now. I am trying to get the ardupilot to give my r/c crawler throttle and steering comands and i know that the stock code was written for a plane. But i was wondering if you have any resources that could help me in my quest. In the past couple of days, i have been fooling around with your code and tweaking it to try and get some kind of response from my vehicle and i cant get anything. i tried compiling the new firmware and i get an error that says 'data_update_event' was not declared in this scope In function'void stabilization()':

any clue what this is?

What version are you compiling?

You need to follow the directions very carefully. If the files aren't unpacked to the right folder or if you open the wrong file, it won't compile.
well i even tried the v1 code and it wont compile with the serialprint commands in the code
Use 2.4 and turn on "walkaround" mode. It accomplishes the same as V1, which we don't support anymore.
i tried compiling the code just now and it gave me the error that is in the post
it is referring to the 3rd line in the Amain code
Which .pde file are you loading into the Arduino IDE? You should be loading "ArduPilot_EasyStar_V24.pde"

BTW, this is all in the manual.
i am loading that file and when i try to compile, i get this error

Sigh. PLEASE read the manual. You're supposed to unpack ALL the pde files into the same directory, with the same name as the main file (in this case "ArduPilot_EasyStar_V24"). When you load the .pde your screen should look like this:

sry for the confusion, didn't understand that part of the manual.(yes i have read it) i have just been overwhelmed with all this new information and it takes a little while to process. thanks again for the info, sry for the nonsense
all is well, and all thanks to you chris, im sry for frustrating you. but thanks again
