The Hexa flies well with all default setting except rate roll which had to be reduced to 0.110 to stop it oscillating. When I switch on altitude hold the hexa climbs and keeps climbing. I have…Continue

According to the "Arducopter 2.7 Released!" thread the 1280 is "out of program space". Is it possible for the development team to produce a final cut down version of 2.7 firmware that would fit the…Continue

Alan replied to Alan's discussion Can't stop Hexa from climbing in Alt Hold."It looks like your right and it is the sonar. When I was testing the hexa after the build the sonar read 20cm which is expected as it was too close to the table. When I hung the hexa over the edge of the kitchen table the sonar read about 73cm which…"
Mike Boland replied to Alan's discussion Can't stop Hexa from climbing in Alt Hold."I have the same problem, and it seems to be a combination of a non functional Sonar and tuning.
If I do Alt Hold above 10m then the hexa holds within a few metres, but down low it will just climb.
With space I let it climb to see how high it would…"
Alan posted a discussionCan't stop Hexa from climbing in Alt Hold.
The Hexa flies well with all default setting except rate roll which had to be reduced to 0.110 to stop it oscillating. When I switch on altitude hold the hexa climbs and keeps climbing. I have reduced rate roll in 0.01 stages from 0.11 to 0.06 while reducing throttle rate from 0.3 to zero for each stage via ch6 and it still climbs. I daren't go any further as it is getting unstable. I have loaded the firmware numerous time, performed erase / reset and gone through the setup.I have calibrated…See More
Crashpilot1000 replied to Alan's discussion Mission Planner hidden drop down box"I am running a very old sony vario with centrino cpu and XP. This dropdownmenue is also hidden....perhaps after activation my quadrocopter unfolds some wings or wheels - and starts a secret mission - who knows :) ...."
Alan posted a discussionMission Planner hidden drop down box
This morning I downloaded Mission Planner 1.2.5. Under the Com and Baud boxes is a hidden drop down box for Arduplane, Arducopter2, and Ardurover. When I clicked on it came up as Arduplane. Would having Arduplane set in the box effect what Arducopter firmware is downloaded in anyway? I am running MP on an old Dell laptop with Windows XP. Is it hiding for everyone or just me?See More
