Elevons

Wow I feel like a fool and I almost don't want to post, but I have been working on this for awhile and I know its something silly. I am trying to set up elevons on a Stryker. I have tried the dipswitch method as well as configuring via the APM Mission PLanner/Mavlink(my preferred method). I am using a JR 10X Heli (reset model), but this shouldn't even matter for question 1, correct?1) When going into Stabilize mode, I can only get the pitch or roll to move in the correct direction. When one is working, the other is reversed. I have several combinations of settings. Right now, my settings are:ELEVON_CH1_REV 0ELEVON_CH2_REV 0ELEVON_MIXING 9The APM is correcting pitch in the correct direction, but not roll.2) Manual mode R/C control works fine. When switching to stabilization mode, the elevator channel controls ailerons and aileron channel controls elevator. I have seen other people post this and they said when starting from scratch on the model config, this resolved it. I have done this to no effect.Please tell me what I must be missing in the manual or other forums???

  • Austin,
    Did it all work after you got the manual transmitter working? I'm having similar problems. I THINK I've followed the instructions to the letter. I'm going through it again right now.

    I'm afraid I'm not following. Re: #2, it sounds like you've got your connectors reversed.

     

    As for #1, it's just a matter of getting the combo right.
