# ArduPilot recommended settings

This section contains some recommended settings for ArduPilot. Nothing is set in stone, these are just some defaults I've found to work well.

## GPS

```js
GPS_GNSS_MODE=71  # Enable GPS/SBAS/Galileo/GLONASS.
GPS_RATE_MS=100   # 10 Hz update rate.
```

## Crossfire/ELRS

```js
SERIALn_PROTOCOL=23  # Crossfire/ELRS.
RC_OPTION=800        # 5 - Arming check throttle.
                     # 8 - CRSF telemetry passthrough.
                     # 9 - Suppress CRSF mode/rate message for ELRS.
```

## Expo

30% expo is a good starting point:

```js
MAN_EXPO_ROLL=30
MAN_EXPO_PITCH=30
MAN_EXPO_RUDDER=30
```

## Miscellaneous

```js
INS_GYRO_FILTER=60     # Faster gyro updates.
SCHED_LOOP_RATE=100    # Faster scheduler updates.
```
