I finally worked up the nerve to maiden my radian test bed in autonomous flight. I though if I lost a already mangled airframe it would hurt so much. Although the flight was not a gleaming example of success I did perhaps cure some of the butterflies. After climbing to a safe alt to provide for recovery I threw the witch. My radian jerked around to a approximate heading to the first way-point but then slowly continued the turn into a spiral and spin. I switched off recovered and tried it again this time making the initial approach closer to the correct heading to the way-point. Same result jus happened slower.
Can anyone have any advice for a starting point to tweek the header file?
