"From what I've read the measured altitude is always AGL (above ground level). I'll have to check the utility next time I fly and see what the max alt. and airspeed says. I'm using a pitot-static tube, not the type that Chris and Jordi…"

Waypoint

Hi there,I tested my Easystar yesterday at the local park, i was using the ardupilot 2.23 (latest) code, with the shield. I added the waypoints using the desktop utility and all seem to work well. The easystar went to the waypoints set. However i decided to go the the RC flying club the following day, again using the same setup, the only difference was that I put in the waypoints that match the flying club. This time round the easystar started flying towards a point that was not added using the…See More

"I went test flying yesterday, as soon as I switched onto the waypoint mode (middle switch), my throttle cut off. Does anyone know where the problem lies? I am using ardupilot version 2.2.3 for the easystar."

"Hiya - Is the source available anywhere? The program doesn't run under Mono which means anyone who doesn't use Windows can't use the latest ardupilot. I'm quite happy to re-write the program in something a bit more platform…"

Availability of source code of ArduConfig Beta.

Hi,I am currently using a Linux based system and was wondering if the source code for the Ardupilotconfig tool (beta3 version) was available as I can't upload the waypoints on the board at the moment. I'm extremely interested in writing a platform neutral clone of ardupilotconfig, and would be quite happy to share the results. Is there any other way/method of uploading the waypoints manually assuming I am using the latest ardupilot code (Version 2.2.3) for the easystar ? Any help with this will…See More
