I have a small problem with the ArduPilot when I put it in both FLY_BY_WIRE_A and FLY_BY_WIRE_B,  the rudder goes almost full to the left, not all the way but say 80%.

 

The rudder still works both ways, and everything else works fine in both the FLY_BY_WIRE modes. But the rudder problem isn't something I want to fly with.

 

I suspect it's something in the code.

I have run the «RC Input» and «Servo Output» debug modes, and set the minimum and maximum values I got in the ArduPilot config file.

That didn't help and not knowing enough about Arduino, I don't know what too do next.

 

Has somebody experienced the same problem and know how to fix it?

 

(I use the ArduPilot 2.7.1 code.)

    Peter,
    How do the other modes work? What happens when it's set to Stabilize and you engage the autopilot?

    I had a similar problem with my elevator, but it turned out that my tweeks made for my old radio setup did not work with my new radio. I reset to default settings and started over. Now all working great.

    Do you have anything defined for this setting?

    #define ROLL_TRIM (inside AP_Config.h tab)
