Ardupilot tuning

I've installed my ardupilot into my plane and flown in stabilization mode. I've looked at the tuning instructions in the wiki, and it says to tune the 'P' values for everything. What do the 'I' and 'D' and "INT_MAX" values do?Also, does the ardupilot coordinate turns? I notice that the "Servo Yaw PID" values are all set to zero. Can it apply rudder to counter lateral acceleration?Finally, I have a dx5e 5ch transmitter with a 2pos switch for ch5. I would love to buy a new tx, but would spending that money to buy the Xbee kit allow me to bypass the need for a nicer tx?

  • Have you sorted this out yet. I know I loaded my pid values to my particular plane ie skywalker and I have co ordinted turns. I use the 'i' as the sandpaper. The thing that stops it overcorrecting. As the servo passes through centre instead of moving past the 'sandpaper' stops it there.
