3D Robotics IRIS+...Jerky when switching waypoints??

Hi, I wanted to see if anyone else was having an issue with the IRIS+ or APM software period. 

Whenever I have a route that is autonomous, I get the iris+ to hover, then place into AUTO on the RC. It then follows everything I had on the DROIDPLANNER2 App and flights the waypoints.

But when it hits one waypoint and starts its journey on the next, it has a jerky speedbump type appearance like it just swoops to the next waypoint and jerks the entire thing. Shouldn't it smoothly transition from waypoint to waypoint? I dont have a gimbal on my IRIS+ yet but will in a couple weeks and I dont even think that would stabilize those points.

Any help?

Also, the parameters on the droidplanner app regarding fence...is that the geofence? if it says '1' does that mean its on, and 3000 centimeters (300 meters)? I would like to take it farther, and higher than 100 meters, do I simply change this? I was told the IRIS+ can go 1km.

  • I also have this problem and was wondering if there is a solution with some setting or what.

    • I believe this is address in the new firmware that will be coming out in the next week or so.  The IRIS+ is running an intermediate version of this code and that was one issue that was later found.

      Have an original IRIS with this beta code on it and have not notice any waypoint issues.  They say it may be more noticeable with speeds over 5 m/s.

      Did notice some twitching when going from waypoints to a circle(Loiter Turns).
