apm planner regarding bad direction in flightdata screen when using modified AHRS_orientation parameter

Posted by thierry on March 24, 2014 at 5:27am

hello Guys,

with my board, I must use ahrs_orientation of "2", ie 90 degrees

unfortunately, apm planner seems to not automaticly correct the flght data screen in accordance with this parameter..

...and then bank and roll are interverted on screen but the function "accelerometers calibration" is affected too

is there some trimming possible in apm planner parameters to correct it ?

thank You

    The problem is not APM Planner or Mission Planner. They don't do any transformations on the data based on that parameter. It looks to me as if configuration is set wrong.

      hello Bill,

      ok ,i understand what you mean but in fact, isn't that the reason of the problem ?

      My HK red board is mounted in a delta wing, the 2 elevonss and throttle work correctly, the gyros/accelerometers works in the good directions on the servos too, thus bank and roll are setted in the good directions for the plane.

      if the plane is ready to fly at this point of view, is it logical that apm-planner don't show me the correct horizon ?  it's just like it shows me the horizon of my left hand...like it don't matter my change of board direction
