Hi guys, I am not having much luck with loiter settings, the quad holds steady and the slowly starts to drift one way, and then another way and gets faster and faster and then it cant steady itself.  Looks like a game of table tennis in the air.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Regards Pete

I think you may be on to something here. How are you able to accurately track velocity though with just noisy GPS data?

Try these PIDs

NAV_LOITER_P  1.2

NAV_LOITER_I   0.01

NAV_LOITER_D  0.3

NAV_LOITER_IMAX 10

 

The i term may have been ramping up causing the overshoot.

 

 

Thanks jason will try today.

Had a play with your flash pid tuners on another post may I say bloody brilliant.

I learned more about PID in 3 minutes playing with your program than I have the last year.

Morning,

 

Flash PID Tuners?  Where that, where can I have a look at it?

Here you go.

http://diydrones.com/forum/topics/cant-find-the-right-pid

about half way down the page for the Barometer PID flash and page 2 for pitch and roll pid flash.

Comon admins do your job and put these files in the arducopter manual. PLEASE

 

Regards Pete

I finally figured out a way to embed them in the manual wiki here.

Hi,

 

Instead of inbedding the whole page, here are the links directly


http://ardupilot-mega.googlecode.com/svn/ArduPilotMegaImages/Copter...
http://ardupilot-mega.googlecode.com/svn/ArduPilotMegaImages/Copter...

Simply specify the dimension of each .swf when you publish.

 

You can actually just click on the link here and it will take you to them.

James: Google Code does not support direct embedding of Flash files. I needed to create a Google Gadget to do that, which only supports an entire page. 

 

I can just link to those files, but I think embedding them makes it clearer what they do.

Chris,

 

If I create a page with the swf's embedded already and publish them,  Would that help you at all?

 

Regards,

Solo.

Isn't that what I've already done? Or do you mean without the DIY Drones banner?

Hi Chris,

 

Yeah, maybe so we dont have to have the side bars to make it a lil prettier.  I still think its totally awesome just having the info there though.  I also thought of maybe embedding them side by side.

 

Tell you what, let me do it quick and then you can decide... easy as pie :)

 

Regards,

James

Gotcha. Please do create that page and I'll switch it in.
