hey
i have an query...why analog servos dont work with apm2.6.
Is that only digital servo will run through apm2.6 bcoz of its output pin at 490hz?
Please let me know as soon as possible.

Aniket

Hi Aniket,
I am using all analog servos on my Airplane and have tested this APM 2.6 on sunday for 3 flights for Gyro Stabilisation . all were working good.i am not sure what made you conclude " Analog Servos " dont work with APM 2.6.

Dear Arun kumar,
I have received the shipment yesterday through DTDC, however after opening the consignment there were two things missing in the shipment.
Items missing in the Shipment:
1) 6 POS connector which sits between the Power module and the board is missing, without this connector the board is almost useless.
2) The screws of the APM case were missing.
I am attaching few pictures for your reference.
Items received in the shipment:
1. APM2.6 board with case
2. Standard USB to micro USB cable
3. Power module
Request you to please send the connectors and screws for the APM case at your earliest convenient.
Regards

Hi Rudrakshi,
1. I am sure that i included 6pin connector as i have just tested it before sending you. i have even posted pics b4 packing it. Check the time i posted pics on this page itself .
2. APM Case was free give away , i have clearly mentioned " 3DR APM 2.6 Flight Controller Module Only " and nowhere with case. i have included since its not useful to me.
GOT a call from DTDC if the parcel had Batteries, i am not sure if they have opened , from the first image i can make out its not bubble wrapped as i have done (bubble wrap from DTDC costs 100rs) . did you remove bubble wrap ..?
let me check once again at my place after i reach home for 6pin connector.

Thank you, i will be waiting eagerly for your reply. I am sure you might have forgotten to put it in the bag and it might be lying in your box somewhere.
Found the Cable on my desk itself :banghead: :banghead: , its on the way along with APM Case screws. Sorry for my bad....
:-(
hey no problem Arun, thank you so much for the prompt reply. do let me know if i need to bear any shipping charges, i will transfer.
Sorry, but from the picture it does not look like an original 3dr apm board,
Rctimer is the only other company makes copy of APM , and there is no 2.6 available from them as far as I know. the other way to check is from MyComputer-->DeviceManager-->comport *name
Sorry sir, ardupilot hardware is an open source so a lot of chinese manufacturers are there to make copies. Just go this site and you will find out.

3DR make apm are very specifically marked and these markings are missing in your picture. Your pictures matches to the one in ebay which are all clone. I dont say they will not work but please dont give false infomation to buyers who many times may not be aware of such clones.
Dear Arun,
Have you sent me 6pos cable? please send me the tracking number.
Regards,
Hi Rudrakshi,
1. Not yet sir, i will be sending it today , was not able to make it, sat and sunday most of the time was at airfield with new Bixler 2 , will ship it today and send you tracking number,..
2. as above member mentioned " asupan " , please let me know immediately if it is a copy , i dont mind taking it back .. i am not here to make any "quickbucks" , asaik i have checked for two options i have mentioned above , i am no expert as it was pretty new to me and don't mind keeping it.
keep my word .... ready to take it back and deposit you money back + courier charges.Please let me know asap.
Dear Arun,
I haven't checked for the authenticity of the board, as you mentioned in your post that you bought it by your your friend from US so i went by your word.
Will be eagerly waiting for 6POS cable so that i can see how it performs on my quad.
Regards,
Even some of the clone boards have "3dr" printed on them(I have one), irrespective of that, if the FC works great in the first attempt there is nothing much to worry about unless you goof up somewhere. 3dr carries out quality checks and provides good after sales service, which may not be available with some of the clone suppliers. Other than that its pretty much the same.
3DR provides a 2.6 FC with the onboard magnetometer removed from APM 2.5, where it becomes compulsory to use external magnetometer. While 2.6 clones are nothing but the APM 2.5 with an option to cut tracks to onboard sensor and use an external sensor instead. So we can say that 3DR APM 2.6 was rather a degrade than an upgrade but thats my opinion because we can use external sensor on 2.5 too.
Anyhow since the seller has offered to take it back, it shouldn't be much of a issue. Also Joe be careful while connecting up everything as its very easy to short or reverse polarity on FC's. There is lot of data and info available online in case you get confused.
