Re: king warthox !!

why should the level mode dont work in 3d mode? a normal mwc quad will flip when its inverted and acc is activated. i think a 3d quad will also do that, why shouldnt it do that. i will test it.

Re: king warthox !!

When the motors are reversed they are not controlled in the same way as normal. how do you come to this conclusion? by pratically testing it [which can be very error prone due all the additional hardware which also have to be set right and may is not]? Does LEVEL mode work? Does it work when invert...

Re: Let's try to release 2.1: second try based on r964

the gui is also fullscreen on win7 64bit. and its also crashing after a short time.
if possible please make it like it was until now; in a window.
fullscreen is totally useless and counterproductive.

setting homepos during gyrocal is not better. in this case i would prefer setting homepos while arming.
an universal solution would be the use of an aux channel switch. so u can set homepos wherever and in which situation ever your copter is.
