"Forgot to mention covering the barometer. I taped a bit of foam padding over mine -the kind that hard drives ship with. It's not the most dense covering so I'll try switching to something more dense like cotton of tissue paper…"

does anyone know why my cuad seems to lose its level point during a flight?after a couple of mins flying against the wind, it seems to take the angle needed to fly against the wind as the new level ,…Continue

Neil Ohnemus replied to m00se's discussion Help with loiter"Hey all!
I have had a couple similar problems where the copter in loiter, alt hold, and auto where I will have been flying fine and suddenly the copter starts to descend slowly. Twice this has happened in auto where I was flying the same…"
David Kirk replied to m00se's discussion Help with loiter"I have an APM 2.5 and since the case is still not available I ended up mounting it naked. Initially had the same behaviour until I covered up the barometer as per a post I found on here. In my case as soon as I tried alt hold it slowly descended."
Scott Berfield replied to m00se's discussion Help with loiter"Try it with sonar disabled. I have seen a lot of weird behavior with loiter and alt hold with sonar."
Andy Theimer replied to m00se's discussion Help with loiter"I've also had this happen several times now, using apm 2.5 + 3dr quad w/ ublox and sonar.
Today when I tried loiter it worked much better - it wandered around for a good minute or so but did yo-yo up and down quite a bit. I set loiter at…"

Hi guys,I am having a problem with my cuad, it was flying really well, i was giving it some stick flying around in all directions as fast and far as i dared, then i bought it home, hovered a bit and shot of forward, at almost ground level, then it suddenly lost altitude and skidded to a stop,now whenever i power it up, it hovers for about 10 seconds fine, and slowly falls down to ground,i have tried various lipos, its not the battery as only 200mah is usednothing is noticebly hot when it lands,…See More

m00se replied to Luke Olson's discussion Yaw change also changes elevation"I have a turnigy talon framed cuad, when i started playing with it I had the same problem, I did varios things to help it,
My first advice is check that you are not moving the throttle when you yaw, its easy to do,
second, make sure you have…"

m00se commented on lot's blog post Quad copter flying for 4-8 hours"I saw some hydrogen /lipo fusion fuel cells the other day that are being used in UAV´s if they use that then they might be able to acheive it, but the fuel cells themselves weigh several kilos, i doubt a cuad that small can carry them and…"

I would just like to say that I got the first opportunity to fly at an inside football pitch today, I have flown outside in both light and strong wind many times now and its good, but today with no wind was exceptional.The cuad drifts maybe 0.5 m/s in a rearward direction , but that could just as easily be a transmitter problem as anything else. other than that, it stays in one place almost perfectly, and the altitude hold is pretty good, although changes with battery level.YAW is also good…See More
m00se replied to Michael Moore's discussion Altitude problem"michael,
the barometer measures air pressure , and therefore altitude above sea level, APM must register it at any altitude, otherwise people flying at sea level wouldnt be able to ,
the problem has to be something else, do you have gps? i dont know…"
m00se replied to Michael Moore's discussion Altitude problem"how can the barometer work different at different altitudes, it measures air pressure, and therefore will work at any height . on the table or on the floor makes no difference
"
m00se replied to m00se's discussion Level calibration"hmm interesting,
i get about 5 mins before this happens, and i have only used about 500ma, but the batteries are only 1000mah,
when charging they show that they have only discharged to 3.8v, which i know isnt a real measure of the discahrge under…"
