V tail support in firmware code

Archive

Hi,
I would like to request the support of V-Tail aircrafts in a future firmware release. Indeed we see more and more of these V tail frames that people would like to fly with APM.
Such as the XUAV Talon.
Is this feature already on the list of future developments ?

Thank

V tail output is already supported. See:

plane.ardupilot.com/wiki/ardupla … AIL_OUTPUT

This is not supported as mentioned in the wiki:
If you’re flying a V-tail, this is not currently support by the APM software. Instead, you can mix your rudder and elevator channels externally with a hardware mixer.

or is the wiki wrong ?

The wiki has been updated. It now points to the Vtail setup page.
