Changing telemetry baud rate?

[schuermannsebastian (Sebastian)]

Hi,

-C /dev/ttyUSB0 for 3dr Radio

and

-E /dev/ttyAMA0 for dual GPS

-B /dev/ttyAMA0 for external GPS only

Thanks, the uart port has 6 pin connector while the external gps connector only provided a 6 to 5 pin DF13 connector how do I setup this? Do I need to buy a 6 to 6 pin DF13 connector?

You can pull the wires out of the connector and make a cable that suits your needs. I do this all the time, but the plastic tabs on the connectors is really thin and it is easy to brake them of. It takes a bit of practice. So if you do not have enough connectors to afford to loose one, buy a 6pin to 6pin cable.

Whenever I initialize apm using option -A I do not get the text on the screen. However, if I initialize with option -C I get the text even when my telemetry is functioning properly. I didn’t think much of it, but is this normal?

Yep, you’re not the only one -A displays nothing -C gives me compass checks sensor checks etc.
