Bug Reports, Code Issues & Feature Requests

[amb]

I'd like to have another type of mission mode or way of starting a mission, respectively.

It'd be great if the copter will start at the launch position to a specific altitude and then start with the first waypoint... After all waypoints are checked, the copter should fly back to the launch point and descent until touchdown and disarm...

Why do I request this feature?! I'm planning my missions at home and i know where to fly and to hover, but I don't know where to start my copter in advance.

all the best,
amb

I would like to request a bigger icon of the quad,Hexa,octo in hte GCS.
I'm using the windows version and its not noticable. I would like to see where the AQ is i.r.t. a waypoint.
Also some heading vectors would be great.

Hi, after the firmware upgrade (r100) I cannot program the ESC32 from the uSD. Is something changed in this routine?

Simon: Can you confirm that if you downgrade to r97 that it works again? What is the last revision you were using where it did work?

[chschmid]

For me R100 with ESC32 FW R25 worked.
The param Start_Voltage is not transferred to the ESC32.

It worked on compiled 6.6.0 (b1035), but I havn't downgraded yet to check it. Maybe something in my txt files has changed. Could this problems be related to character/format coding of the txt file? UTF8/ANSI etc.? Using space, tabs, notes? It is strange that for some people it never worked for some reason...

[bn999]

Tabs and spaces should not be a problem as they are all considered white space. Trailing notes should also be ignored. It just uses the fscanf() stdio function. I guess there could be character set issues. All the little library knows about are standard ascii codes. If there is a file that is not working where another can be shown to work, I would like to see it.

I don't have the non-working files - I've formated the card after that :/ I completely do not understand it, but right now everything works fine on r100 :/ I've tried different character sets/formats (using Notepad+) and everytime it works. If I run into this problem again, for sure I will write and send a file. But right now I think the problem was not associated with the file.

How difficult would it be to have an option to combine the flight mode channel with the set home/RTH channel? Eg Use a 3 position switch with a two position switch mixed to give 6 different pwm values on Channel 5? I would like to do this so that it would free up the other channel. My setup is ch6 controlling camera tilt, and I want to be able to toggle a switch on ch7 to switch between two cameras, in addition to the start/stop recording switch I have on ch8.
