Is cloud opacity to IR high to the point where the system can no more work?
Cheers!

Tuning for Solar Aircraft
As some of you may know, me and a mate successfully built a solar drone.(http://diydrones.com/forum/topics/lusa-low-cost-unmanned-solar?id=705844%3ATopic%3A445243&page=2#comments), now we bought APM2.0 hoping to improve its flight time thanks to the

Hi, Ardupilot 2.6 (still with thermopiles) did a pretty good job in handling our solar drone (seriously, http://diydrones.com/forum/topics/lusa-low-cost-unmanned-solar?id=705844%3ATopic%3A445243&page=2#comments), now we bought APM2.0 to improve the r

Hey guys!
My ardupilot voltage reading isnt working =(
In the telemetry (which is working fine) it reads "battery 3.83V" and I can not understand where is this value coming from. It reads 3.83 even if the proper battery readings pin is not connected a

It has been more a journey than a project, making it we learnt -and

Ardupilot's max loop speed
Hi,
I am flying my ardupilot in a fast Elektro junior S, It runs ardupilot 2.4 and I have a FV-M8 GPS and DIY drones termopiles.
The question is:
How fast can be the attitute data rate and position datarate set without overloading the Arduino?

Hi folks,
we are two guys from italy working on a drone for our high school final project.
Right now we are working on the ardupilot telemetry, and we have a question:
In the original project the Adafruit adapter board is used to reduce the signal volta
