    This video saved my life! I had a crash while building a customer drone and the wires between the herelink uart and pixhawk were severed. I tried every combination that made sense to me but I'm about as well versed in uart code as rock so seeing which cable goes into which port between the two is a lifesaver!

    Worth mentioning for new people the reason you connect antennas to any RF transmitter first is because high power without antennas to release it will overheat and possibly destroy the TX

    Hi there
    Sir, actually I am a student learning ardupilot and the art of flying. Recently I bought a Pixhawk Cube Orange and Here 3GPS when I tried calibrating I failed every time from Home to open area.
    I changed GPS_type to UAVCAN and CAN-P1 and CAN_P2 driver to 1 and CAN_D1and CAN_D2 driver to 1 enabled Compass_external,ntf_led to UAVCAN.

Is there a CCD sized mini HDMI connection enabled camera out there besides the HD Action Sports cams?

This or the Yuneec Typhoon H instead? I'll get a Ready to Fly, HD set up for a about $200 additional cost with this very Ground Station. Seems this is a COPY of the Yuneec Ground Station, set to work with the pix. A family member has two Typhoons and it is very impressive $999.

    using Px4 mini
    supplying the right voltage to the air unit (12v feed from power module)
    tried switching SBUS
    I cannot get the D2D option to appear on the menu inside QGS app on ground unit
    although the pairing worked on the ground/air unit in the herelink app I cannot get LED1 to light up? LED2 is solid green within 10 seconds of applying power.

      You really would want to use a external servo controller tbh, you can use it over Sbus with an adapter and you can calibrate with in Ardu some ways but the best way is to either use manual points as the ESC is pre set or use a servo controller.
