"Maybe similar but hope it can help others.
I have had similar unstable performance with our quad and hexa with params that are too aggressive/high. I suggest relaxing params. Also, noticed that twitching/dipping and other similar symptoms…"

"Lower vibrations in your system.
Protect barometer.
Check Throttle MID
Try Settings:
1. Throttle Accel P 0.5-0.6
2. Throttle Accel I 1.0-1.2
2. Throttle Accel D 0.002-0.004
3. Throttle Rate 4.0-5.0
5. Altitude Hold P 1.05-1.1
Refine in small…"

"About time someone improved the conventional frame design for more safety and durability. Ordered mine too."
"I echo the sentiment of many. There is much room for improvement in terms of customer service and product-to-market reliability. Hope more money means better products and services."
"Found the problem. A defective APM unit that was bought last January or February 2013. Possibly one of the first gen APM 2.5 production units. This problem was reported also by several others in the forum. It was returned for repair but obviously…"
Hi. Has anyone encountered the radio tx not working via wireless telemetry radios (no visible input in even in radio calibration) but work perfectly via USB cable? This is in Mission Planner. The telemetry radios are communicating properly (i.e.…
"The sonar module will give more accurate readings when nearing ground level."
"Its a good thing the failsafe issues and concerns have been revived.
I've had two crashes with APM2.0 and APM2.5 some time ago with Autopilot-to-Manual switch over not working at a high enough altitude to recover. There was an RTL dive issue during…"

"Has this feature been fixed? This also happens for my current set-up which is still Arduplane 2.73. On failsafe it does not continue on the mission but does circle and RTL even when set to continue mission. In addition, we need the old manual level…"
"Hi guys,
Can anyone point me to the specs and wiring directions/instructions of the 3DR servomux board? The board is no longer in the store and a search on the new forum returns nothing.
Thanks in advance. "

"Yeah. One of my 3DR power modules died a couple of months ago after several successful flights with the almost the same output voltage now. Good thing it died during some SOP bench warming before flight. The APM board output rails were powered…"
"Since no one has replied to this thread, it looks like nobody has really tried using the pan servo output of APM or attempted to enable it in the code. :( "
"An additional observation is that the pan stab servo is not responding at all to any motion of the APM. There seems to be no servo signal to the motor since I do not encounter resistance when I try to rotate it slightly. And the pan servo works when…"
"Btw, I am using the latest ArduPlane 2.67 code"
Hi Guys,I seem to have encountered some weird camera gimbal operation with APM 2.5 and MP 1.2.22. I have used the APM 2.0 before with camera stab fine with pitch and yaw. This is the first time I have used all three camera axes - pitch, roll and yaw…
"Hi,
We just fixed our own motor glitches and twitches problem after some time. The culprit was the multi-connector cable between receiver and APM board. They were probably a bit worn and if there is some vibration, they loose contact. An observation…"
