erratic gyro indication

Posted by Brent on September 16, 2011 at 8:35pm

I had a problem with my APM today, specifically a tumbling erratic attitude indication in the MP flight data page. When I looked at the gyro logs in test it showed all 0's. This is the second time I had this problem and have successfully "fixed" it by reloading the code, only this time I had to load copter code and after checking the gyro in the MP it looked good. I then re-loaded airplane code and all was good so I finished the setup and will test fly tomorrow

 

This appears to be a corrupted eeprom issue that cannot be cleared with a eeprom reset using CLI.

 

MP 1.066

APM 2.23

    Went out to the field and powered up only to find everything acting up again, bad tumbling jittery attitude indication in the MP flight data page. I suspect this is being caused by the 1280 board and not the sensor board. Must be time for a 2560.
