I can fly about 3:30 then the hex just powers down and falls from the sky. I've looked at the log (attached) and there appears to be a current spike but it doesn't make sense. Can anyone help? Broken 3 props so far trying to work this out.Here are…
"Having the same issue, brand new APM2.5. It was working before I updated the firmware."
"Is everyone using the Bixler PIDs on this airframe?"
"I realize now because of the common ground requirement this may not work."
"@Andreas
I have loaded your ArduCopter code to my APM2.5 and have it running connected to my PC via USB. I have my droncell clone (icomsat1.1) connected to my APM2.5. What I can't figure out is how to accomplish step 6 above - how do I change those…"

I'm considering a unique approach that will lower the barrier of entry (programming skills, etc) to this segment. That is to take my GMS shield and put it on a 2nd arduino (uno) and attach it to the serial connections of the APM2.5. This approach…
"For anyone finding this thread later on I wanted to report the final outcome. I have since installed this same unit in another airframe and it works fine. I'm pretty sure I had made a mistake during the radio calibration phase for the other two…"
"@John - they changed the wood bits that come with the kit - it's really a tiny change. Also, if you modify the wing so that the trailing edge lines up with the fuse you'll actually require less trim and make the airframe more efficient. I used a few…"
I received one of these in the mail today from GoodLuckBuy.com. I purchased it for APM telemetry although now I'm not even sure where to begin. Does anyone actually have this already working?
"Additional note - I'm aware of the issue with the 2.5 and have my APM in the official case offered by diydrones."
I experienced my 2nd crash with my APM2.5 last evening. The first crash destroyed a super sky surfer then last night destroyed an X8 Wing. The exact same scenario. Took off in manual mode (never switched out of it), flew one circle, during the…
