Hi, first of all, thanks a lot for this extremely helpful content. I have just a quick question. Is it possible to use the telemetry module connected to my laptop (RFD 868x) to actually control the aircraft? Such as by plugging in a remote (Radiomaster tx16s) to the computer and forwarding the signal.
Hello. could you kindly tell me if there is a way to adjust dead band like there is in betaflight. I've been discouraged from using my APM because of drifting and I know it could be corrected but no matter how much research I do I can't find a way to set dead band in mission planner
Hello Thanks for this amazing introduction video, I'm planning on doing a ArduPilot boat.
I'm also planning on connecting it to Pi4 and make the boat connection 4G.
I'm planning on doing boat with 2 propeller and 2 rudder. (I've 3d Printer so I can print this parts)
I'm really noob and don't know where to start and what should I buy to make it work. ( For now I only have Pi4.
If Anyone can help me it would make me really happy 😆
Hi there, newbie here. Can you please let me know which telemetry module you have connected?
Hey Painless.
Gratitude for your excellent work.
I would like to make a question.
I have a Pixhawk 4 mini and I want to set
CAP 1 as a relay pin controlled by RC8 switch of my Taranis.
Can anyone help me since I am new to the hobby?
Do you have an opinion about companion computers and the interface with ardupilot vs px4 – in terms of expanding drone/sensor capabilities ?
Good day
If I want to power up powerful servos what can I use to connect to the pixhawk output rails? I'm hoping to put pixhawk in a gas powered plane hence the high power servos.
in pixhawk (main out) pin signal pin not giving any data can u tell me what is the reason??
Thank you sooo much!!! You are greatly APPRECIATED MY FRIEND 💯❤️
just amazing
Hello sir, what is your recommended GPS for pixhawk
Brilliant. Thanks so much for all your help !
Hello, Do you have any video on connecting the pixhawk cube to a gimbal. i just want to connect my storm32 gimbal to pixhawk cube black
Great videos. I'm building a tracked rover and i'm looking at using Pixhawk, Mission Planner and Ardurover. What kind of range can I expect to get? Thanks you for the great videos!!
Thank you so much again !!! I have seen your video many times to learn . Thank you so much .
Lee im in big bind, in the gui of mission planner I can not find the tree setup for chance the channel for modes, and the flight modes do not have no channel assigned to any pwm at said 0, no channel 5 or channel 8, where is the parameter tree to assigned a channel. Please need help.
I use ur video as reference since 2019… i remember the first quad that i built is f450 using cc3d… and then i change to naze32… now im looking forward to use pixhawk… but i think it's quite expensive but it's worth it… thanks for the great video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks!
this series is helping me a lot thankyou for keeping the explanation simple and sound. Lots of love. Keep making these fundamental videos
I double checked my connections and found a couple corrections needed. I did my maiden flight today and it stayed in the hover ok. I used the stabilize mode. I did notice the throttle is very sensitive. I was either climbing or descending, Can I maintain level in stabilize mode? Is there a way to adjust the throttle so it is not so sensitive to mivement?
Have a question on the yah. When I load up MP and connect, when I go to the data tab it shows yaw at 29. Should that be a zero or is it ok for some number to be there? I did try a preliminary flight out front and it just took a hard right. Never got up much off the ground. I checked the motors and they are tight and appear level. Any thoughts?
I'm having a problem with compass calibration. Can't get it to work. After I go thru the motions it says to reboot so I disconnect then reconnect but it won't remember the settings. I've gone from the 4.0.7 revision to the next lower one but nothing works there either. Any ideas where I should look? Thanks in advance
I think I'm addicted.. 😂😂
What autopilot would you use for a tiltrotor? In this case from what I understand you have either arducopter or arduplane. Please help.
Hello. Need some help. I connected my Pixhawk 2.4.8 to my computer using a USB cable, but the LEDs did not power on. The pixhawk is 2-3 years old, is there a chance it may not be functional now?
I purchased the herelink controller and cube orange but can’t really find the exact way to power up both. Any detailed directions out there for that? Thx
Random question, which I couldn't immediately find an answer to.. I really fancy setting up my eHawk 1500 with Ardupilot and one of the flight controllers here, but because this model is really a glider with a motor, I just wondered how much throttle automation is available? I mean in a thermal climb would I be able to automate the motor shutdown all together?.. Or am I really on the wrong track here?
I got a Question :- Which FC is used in Tilt motor drones. And how can I make one .?
Got a question on pixhawk 2.1 cube black if you would be so kind to review…
I want to hook up a Bluetooth module for mission planner, I dont need Bluetooth telemetry since I have the minim osd taking care of that, I just want Bluetooth connectivity…
My problem is that telem ports 1 and 2 are being utilized and from what I have read, it should be connected to telem port.
But I have read that it can be connected by serial port 4 or 5…thats where I'm lost
Where is serial port 4 or 5 located??
Or do you know another alternative connection for a Bluetooth connection?
This is all so I can use my tablet at the field and not my laptop, where I have to physically connect on the ground…and I know the range is limited, but I makes it easier
Hi. Congratulations on your videos. I have a question. Where do you install the GPS, do you have to measure its XYZ axis like the Naza and enter the data into the Pixhawk??
Hi can you or anyone else here help, I have a problem with setting flap channel in mission planner I’ve got it set to channel 6 but it will not work thru the pix hawk even in manual flight mode unless I use rc pass thru instead of flap setting! In MP servo settings Any ideas ..
Hello sir, Great video…..Initially, I used APM 2.8 for my drone, I installed the required firmware and completed all the calibrations, but later on while connecting it to the Mission Planner, it keeps showing me "No heartbeat packets received" and when i try to reinstall the firmware it shows "Communication error", could you help me out over here…(Neverthless, I am planning to move on to Pixhawk now)
you are a savior!!!!!!!
Thank you sir
Awesome video, thank you
I have a question ? When we update the firmware on the pixhawk then do we need to again calibrate everything or few parameters needs to change, considering perfectly calibrated on previous firmware?
This is excellent. Thanks again for making this. Could i ask… do you know if the dji fpv system goggles is able to show the ardupilot osd?
I have a Matek Systems F405-Wing flight controller… When fail safe takes place the plane flaps get activated and come down. Any suggestions on how to disable flaps from activating during fail safe? Tara is radio, ardupilot firmware with mission planner
I really want to build a long range uav just as an experiment but it's so expensive 🙁 I really enjoyed setting up my wings with my old flight controllers.
Did you have any idea how to implement Coaxial Ducted Fan UAV using Pixhawk?
Thanks for doing this series! Question: When I look up the Pixhawk Cube – There is an actual "Pixhawk Cube", then there is the Pixhawk 2 refered to as the cube. Then, there is what I have which is the older "Pixhawk 1 PX4 PIX 2.4.8". Can you explain what to purchase ie – https://www.getfpv.com/pixhawk-2-1-cube.html Thanks so much.
Looking forward for INAV to become a decent competitor for this because I can’t mount that brick on my 5 inch drones, yet I’d love to make an autonomous flying drone
Hello thanks for the info. Can I use an Arduino instead of the pixhawk ?
Like to get a lesson on PX4FLOW
Im trying to do this over 4g to ardupilot
Hi, very informative video, i am trying to build a tiltrotor uav can you please share any source for control systems for tiltrotor as i dont have much idea on control system
You say "stay away from APM planner & Qgroundcontrol, use Mission Planner & it will be easier" – is that even if we are Mac users and find it hard to use PC/Windows? Again thank you for your great videos – I am almost about to remove my DJI A2 & replace with Pixhawk.. the PC windows thing is bit disappointing but if you reckon I should use only PC then I must get one 🙂
Hello, can you contact me via whatsapp 00212707261081
So how much does all it cost at the end of the day?
Hello again, I an sorry to bother you with all these questions but I am new to using autopilot and I hope you do not mind answering these questions 1) I did some research and found out that my fs-ia6b receiver’s channel 1 also acts as a ppm port, is it possible that i can use it in the RCIN port on the pixhawk that is next to the sbis port? 2) since i am building a flying wing, where do I plug in the servos, as far as i am aware, the servos connect to the “main out” ports on the pixhawk. Am I correct or they plug in somewhere else in the board? 3) If something goes wrong with the autopilot can I regain control using my transmitter to get it back to safety? Again, I am really sorry to bother you with all these questions. And thank you for reading!
