Yes I know, with a bit of glue is like new! Actually I should take up now that is broken to go with a mod similar to the Sr. Bryan Cuervo which is excellent. But for now I will continue with the easy patched, and channeling the budget for…

What you need now for sure is this: Sorry for your EG, but Gary is right: your fixed EG will be a much better suited testbed for further experiments than a brand new glider! Good luck and keep on trying.

ok, I really do not have a logical answer about flying without the co-pilot and sensors ... But I am waiting for the co-pilot and while I do not have it, I have done some tests just to see how it runs the model, always very high and I stabilized the…

You flew ArduPilot 1.0 without a FMA CoPilot? That's a guaranteed crash--you had no stabilization system at all. Sorry to hear it, but I'm confused by why you would attempt that.

Bad luck that only looks like a few minutes work with some glue to fix though.

What kind of radio system were you flying with? 2.4Ghz or 72Mhz? It's been my experience that 2.4Ghz is more solid with respect to potential interference and noise introduced by all the added electronics onboard. I'm trying to imagine why…

My EasyGlider + Ardupilot 1.0 = "Big Crash"

Hello guys,I give you a new configuration of my easyglider after experimental flight with Ardupilot:I already have this model to fly FPV at 2 years, never crash and never had problems with radio interference.Now off to test new minimum and maximum values of the PID's, and after about 40 seconds of flight, the model came into spiral to the ground, the Ardupilot was disabled by the toggle. Very strange, the attitude that the model got to the ground was equal to that he earned the previous test…See More
