apm 2.5 help gyro backwards

Posted by Mike T on April 8, 2014 at 6:58am

Hi would love any help with this.

i have a brand new hobbyking apm 2.5. i am about to send it back but thought i would check here first.

In mission planner the gyro performs backwards. when i roll it left it shows as right, and visa versa.

Yes i have calibrated the accellerometer. (many times) i have several APM's and have been using them for some time and have never seen this before!

I have tried going back to firmware 2.9.1, recalibrated etc.

Tried reseting board. Upgrading to 3.1.2

Cleared entire board via arduino and reuploaded firmware.

Same thing. Has anyone seen this? Is there a parameter to reverse the gryo?

thanks for any help

    Agree with Scott, nothing is wrong here.

    It looks fine in the video you posted.  Perhaps you're confused about how an artificial horizon display works.  Imagine you were on-board the aircraft and looking out of the front window.
