# How to make a good bug report...
(FIXME - someone please add)
* Make sure your bug is not a support issue. Support issues should go to [the APM forums](http://ardupilot.com/forum/). Support issues with logs attached should generally go to the "Log files, Tuning, and Analysis of Log files" section. If you're not sure you have a bug, you should seek support first.
* Search for your bug, make sure it is not already reported. If it is already reported, make a comment on that issue.
* Write a clear summary. Be specific about what component of the software you are writing about, and follow the convention: "Copter: blah blah blah"
* Write a clear description, with **particularly clear steps** to reproduce the problem. Include logs that display the bug.
* The majority of issues open now are good or acceptable by these guidelines. Please refer to them for examples.
