"Monroe, are you monitoring this?  This is great for tracking either a High Altitude Balloon that is beaconing GPS coordinates via APRS, or, RC control and/or override ( 2.4 GHz patch antenna array ) of a RTH autopilot glider dropped from a…"

Open Source Antenna Tracker - OpenDiyAT

Hello to all, I used a part of the Ardupilot legacy software plus code from Melih Karakelle and from Dennis Frie and "build" around an Open DIY Antenna Tracker - OpenDiyAT.It needs only sentences from a gps receiver unit (gprmc and gpgga) and it sends the telemetry to the ground using the audio link of our video transmitter.It is now in  a very reliable form, and it has still a good development base.With some work, we can increase the telemetry data to send to the ground base.I publish the code…See More

"Didier, Do you see some "jittery" from the servos when using DragonLink and Stabilize mode (or FBW, RTL)? Or Are the servos stable and calm when in normal, stabilize and/or FBW/RTL using the DL and Arduplane/APM?"

"David, I measured the voltage in the CH4 IN pins ( a soldered board ready to 2.7.1 with rudder control) and got GND/5V/0V . in the CH4 OUT pins measured  GND/5V/0.34V when not connected to the servo. You must have a short somewhere."

"Theo, If it is so (38400, NMEA output) try it with only GND, Vc and Tx connect to the Ap board. It should work! "

ArduIMU/Ap test platform ready!!

Hello all,



Developers of this combined project, Thanks!



Ugly and dirty, the system is ready to roll tomorrow, the bench tests all went well, although I think that the elevator amplitude (gain) isn't enough when in stabilize, which probably will happen also with RTL mode.



More to come, tomorrow.…
