Christian Konecny replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"Mine is covered. I found some comments/statements from randy somewhere concerning exactly that behavior:
"The descent on forward flight is I think a barometer effect. if you increase the inav_tc_z to 7 instead of the default…"
Dave C replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"When you move about the air rushing around the airframe causes turbulence, either increasing or decreasing the air pressure around the barometer, if it's losing altitude it is more than likely due to a lower pressure area around the baro,…"
Christian Konecny replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"thank you so much for your guide.
it helped me a lot to get my copters much more stable than I ever thought they might get.
however, i still experience some little problem i could not get rid of so far:
when being in loiter or alt-hold mode and…"
Wayne Morris replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"Let us know after recalibrating."
João Victor Fortes Carvalho replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"Yes, it moves petfectly, thought as said i didnt moved during calibration process. Iam going to try tomorrow. Will be back to tell the results."
Jeff Griffith replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"When you go to Radio Calibration in Mission Planner can you see the channel changing with the pot? Thats where I would start. It may be a problem with your tx settings."
João Victor Fortes Carvalho replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"Wayne, thank you for your reply, the issue i am having is despite the place my knobe is i always can change only between two values which are minimum and maximum ive set before. There is no chance i can choose a midle value, i am using vr(a) which…"
Wayne Morris replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"You don't see the change in the MP configurations. You set up the control and I set mine at the minimum, anti-clockwise, and write those to the copter. Then you fly and adjust the knob for the best flight. After the flight refresh the…"
João Victor Fortes Carvalho replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"Dear Friends, I am having a problem tuning PID trought channel 6, the issue is for example setting min as 0.0700 and max of 0.1400 when I turn the pot of my 9cap it just chooses max or min value, shouldn't it go between those values as I turn…"
Jeff Griffith replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"I have been experiencing a similar problem with my quad. When I was running 700kv motors and 12x4.5 props, the PID values were a lot more forgiving and it was very stable in flight. The problem was that my flight times were around 12 minutes. I have…"
BertzillAvionics replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"Must be mad busy indeed :). No need to help Dave. It flies excellent now - just saying my story. Anw I'll try again 11" props with lower stab_P due to your suggestion. Thanks. Brt
"
Dave C replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"HI, sorry mad busy at the moment so no real time to help. But, that horrible flying is probably due to your stab_p being too high for your set up.
Reduce stab_P to 3.5 or even 3 and try tuning again, you should be fine with your 11" props then."
BertzillAvionics replied to Dave C's discussion Arducopter Tuning Guide"Morning all, morning Dave
First of all let me briefly introduce myself - 50 y.o. glider pilot and rc model pilot/builder (power-gliders; gasers). This winter I decided to built my first quad. It was DIY alu frame with HK 328P Multiwii controler.…"
Dave C commented on Gary Mortimer's blog post AVC 2013"At 30m/s in auto carrying 9000mah it pulls about 60-70amps, so i reckon i could go for about 10mins, ish. It's perfectly capable of carrying 20000mah, but would be pulling more like 90a, So best case at this speed would be around 18mins. So…"
