"Yikes. Not sure what vehicle that would fit best under. It has surfaces, so plane, but requires constant power to control altitude, so copter.
I would go with a traditional heli configuration, perhaps and modify from there. The heli has…"

"The source file is the C code :) Sure you can change the code to do much more than that! :) It is C++ am I understanding you correctly? Were you looking for something else? Arduplane is also in the downloads as source."

Hi all,reading on the forum, I noticed many of you have problems with unsufficient power from one ESC's BEC.I have a 2A BEC built in each ESC, but as everyone is suggesting, I will just use one of them to power the board.Can I make a sort of distribution board to use the other BECs to power the XBee/Sonar and camera mount servos?Would it make the job connecting stuff like this:Unplug the Red (+5V) wire from servos/sonar/XBee going to the APM2 boardRedirect the +5V to another BEC +5VConnect the…See More

How the commands are sent to the servos?
I've been reading the most recent Arducopter 2.5.4 version, I cannot understand how the commands are sent to the servos/motors.I understand that the function "set_servos_4()" is doing the job, but after that I'm lost.An instance of the class AP_MotorsQuad is created (and called "motors") and the method "output" should use the "output_armed()" function whose definition I cannot find...Sorry I'm a newb!Ciao,MicheleSee More
