Hello,

I'm having an issue flying my APM (configured for a drone with no ailerons... elevator+rudder only) in HIL mode with X-plane.  It works fine in manual mode, except that the ailerons of the model are moving in response to what would be a rudder command on my drone.  And when I try to operate in fly-by-wire or auto mode the rudder goes hard-over (can still manage to keep the bird flying, albeit with severe side slip)

I had expected to see no aileron action, and only rudder servo commands simulated X-plane.

Seems like I've failed to configure something properly...   Anyone have any ideas of what I could be doing wrong?

Many Thanks,

-PK

  • Thanks Ryan,  I'll experiment along those lines.  That would make sense.  It also occurs to me that maybe I should have repeated the radio setup procedure after uploading the HIL firmware?  (I had set it up earlier for the plane, but didn't think to repeat that procedure after uploading the firmware for simulation mode...)
