MAKE Terry Kilby - Lets Explore the Rest of Mission Planner

Sensor
This menu allows you to select the type of battery monitor
sensor you are using. If you purchased your kit from the
Maker Shed, you want to use the 3DR Power Module option.
If you bought your monitor elsewhere, consult the store you
purchased it from and find out exactly what type of monitor
they sold you, then select that from the list. If you don’t
know and have no way of finding out, the Other option will
usually work.
APM Version
This is pretty self-explanatory. For this build, select the APM
2.5+ 3DR Power Module option. If you purchased a
dierent
flavor of APM (such as the Pixhawk or PX4), then find your
model in the options and select it.
