Arduino Number
Posted on June 2, 2009 at 6:58am 1 Comment 0 Likes
I am confused about the "Arduino " edition number between
# 13 or #15 ....In the Ardupilot setup instructions it links you
to the Arduino15 to download and use but no reference to
13....
Yet here some say we have to use 13 for certain editions of
“ Ardupilot “
Help requested please ....
Thank you De VO1ET Jerry .....
