Asymmetrical hexacopter

I've built an asymmetrical hexacopter. My problem is that it drives forward when I hover.
My question is if i need to modify the code for my hexa? If so, how?
Has looked a little on motors_hexa.pde there are no comments how to calculate this.
Found a similar picture on my hexa.

  • Please, how did you calculate the angle ?

    How much does it pitch forward?

  • Where is your Center of Gravity?  Spider hexas usually have sensors/electronics in the center of the gravity, battery in the back. If the lift generated by motors is not symmatrical to the center of gravity it will always tend to tilt somewhere.

    You can re-level the board tilted to the opposite side so it will counter it a bit, but best is to keep CG in the geometrical center.
