Hey Trent, I'm Ken how did you setup your ardupilot for your nova? I'm having a lot of problems trying to program it to the radio the way you did it.

Hello Ken! I followed the step-by-step instructions on DIYDrone's manual: code.google.com/p/ardupilot-mega/wiki/home?tm=6I'd start there. If you're still having trouble, feel free to reach out here or on DIYDrones.com. That community is super helpful, especially if you do your homework first. Thanks! |

Well I got everything setup correctly but i can't get the switch to work, each time I try to set the switch to something like return to launch there is only one switch that shows up and i want multiple switches so i can switch from stabilizing mode to manual to return to launch.

Interesting... Which switch are you using to select your flight modes? You'd need your APM control plug into your Rx that accesses a channel with more than one mode. Does that make sense?

Hmmm.... I assume you've done your radio calibration in the mission planner? That should allow you to demonstrate to the APM your channel's range... (and hopefully that you have three options!)

Yea i did the radio calibration and when i moved the sticks it showed it on mission planner but when i got to the terminal to program only one channel shows up for the switches and i've try DIYdrones forum and advise and it's still not working, i'm starting to get very frustrated but i know this is a hobby and it's suppose to be fun so i'm gonna cool down for a bit and wait for some solutions. Also i hope you make a video helping other people like me trying to figure out this problem.

Could you show picture of your screen when you are (1) setting your flight modes and (2) calibrating your radio?
Don't give up! We'll figure this out...
