laggy steering response with APM 2560

Hello

I have a problem with my APM 2560.

In all modes the servos working very good with inputs of the APM.

That means when i move the helicopter the servos working very good,

but wenn i move the sticks on my remote the response to my inpust is very laggy.

it seems like only 2 or 3 stickpositions beeing calculated and given to the servos per second!?

also while steering the inputs resulting from helicopter movement are good and smooth.

maybe someone has an idea wats going wrong

I already read the thread but you are using APM 2 right ?

the problem is that nobody seems to have an idea how to fix the problem :(

Isn't APM2 = APM2560 ?
Are they having the same problem?

i dont think so

ardupilot = ardupilot

APM = ardupilot mega

APM 2560 = ardupilot mega with a little update from last year

APM 2 =APM "2012" purple board, hard to get :)

Same Problem on my new APM 2.0. acro and stabilize.

 

The feedback from the gyros seems to be super nice and responsive, but control inputs only seem to get updated at about 4Hz. Is this normal?

Chris, it does seem to be normal.  I don't know why it's like that, but I can say that it doesn't appear to affect flight in any way.
