Oh, seems like I uploaded the old 0.4 to the download section instead of the new one... Sorry for that. I'll do it again tomorrow!

Hi Tom,

I just came back from my vacation and started to play once again with latest firmware.

1. I have downloaded latest rtos_pilot from svn and burned it.
2. Also I have downloaded latest Gluonpilot configuration tool from SVN but it crashes after I try to run it.
3. Because above gluonpilot configuration tool crashes than I picked up latest one from download section (Gluonconfig_v0.4.zip).
4. I had run above gluonconfig tool, connected my gluonpilot, applied default settings, burned and reset it.
5. Than I have reconnected gluonpilot and applied latest configuration file that I saved using version 3.0. (write+burn+reset)

Issues that I see:
1. I see gyroscope and accelerometer readings under Configuration/Sensor tabs but still 3d cube is not working.
After I run 3d cube the cube is not responding to board movements. For previous releases I had no problems with this.
2. Previously I had problems saving KML Track files. Now this seem to work fine but once It opens in Google Earth I don't see this fancy diagram as on your video from main page. Is there any additional configuration I need to do to google earth?
3. GCS - I don't get any readings. No matter what I select there are no readings. I managed to get once the pressure reading but after selecting different option it stop working.

Let me know if you need any additional information.

Hi Lukasz,

1. Did you enable the "attitude" telemetry? Usually I set this to 5.
2. You have to right click it in the list on the left and then select "show elevation profile" (or something similar). You can also right-click the flight path but this is harder.
3. Are you refering to the google earth streaming or the graphing window? Can you try to right-click the graphing window and select "scale to default"? Also, when you check the checkbox in the list, sometimes you have to select another value before it start showing up in the graphing window (known issue that is not yet solved). (see the youtube movie for more detailed overview of the steps I did)

Hope this helps.

Thanks Tom for tips.

1. Worked - now 3d cube works.
2. Also worked
3. After enabling "attitude" telemetry i see readings in graph window. The only thing that is not working is when I select "Start google earth server" and select "Open", google earth opens but doesn't show the location as on your video. GPS has acquired a lock but google earth doesn't show the location. Any idea why this is not working?

3rd problem is also solved.

Thanks Tom for your support!
