"That looks like a good start, make sure you test with props off to ensure they're moving in the right direction when you move the quad from side to side.I've never built a V, everything I'm telling you comes from looking into the code…"

"So i will try to start with this: add_motor_raw(AP_MOTORS_MOT_1,  0.0,  0.76, AP_MOTORS_MATRIX_MOTOR_CW,  2);        add_motor_raw(AP_MOTORS_MOT_2,  0.0, -0.76, AP_MOTORS_MATRIX_MOTOR_CW, …"

"Open up AP_motorsMatrix.cpp you'll see that using an angle based solution with add_motor actually just nets us values like add_motor_raw, but it's setup for all motors being the same distance from the center of lift. So if we feed an angle…"

"Oh yes - you are right. Maybe thats the reason for the strange yaw-factor  they used for the quad. Ok then i try to do it like the octa. Do you know wh they use a Roll Value of "1" for motor 1, 2, 3, 5, 6,7 and "0.5" for 4…"

Josh Potter replied to Flo's discussion V Hexa Frame
"It's my understanding that the angle based value system (not add motors_raw found int AP_motorsOcta.ccp for the V) are only for systems where all the motors are the same distance from the center of lift.   You'll need to work up…"

"Upload a picture of the distances and angles and we can help.  Read this for an understanding of the basics.   It's mostly just some trig as far as I understand. https://code.google.com/p/ardupirates/wiki/motormixing"

Flo replied to Flo's discussion V Hexa Frame
"No - the motors don´t have the same distance from the CG The plan is to put the CG in the middle of the axis of the two center motors. The V is about 14degrees open I will send a picture when the frame is finsihed. One thing i miss  -…"
