How to diagnose a wrong yaw setup with logs ?

Hello, i'm new with an APM2 and would like to know how to diagnose a Yaw problem with logs.

What logs do i have to activate ? Which value to check ...

In fact, i would like to know if it's possible with logs to analyse the PIDs settings

and if we can find what is wrong on settings by this way.



Thanks a lot for any informations.

  • Hello, i've just found this on the wiki : http://code.google.com/p/arducopter/wiki/AC2_Datalogging

    It looks like the CTUN logs are able to give datas on gain loops.

    How can i use these CTUN logs to check gains ?

    Here is a screenshot of my CTUN logs : http://i11.servimg.com/u/f11/11/72/78/09/logsct10.jpg

    You'll want to examine the I terms if you want to see issues with Yaw.

    Yaw however is pretty easy to analyze without logs. If you set STB_YAW_P to 0 you will have no Yaw control. when you take off you'll probably start spinning indicating a frame is out of balance. Adjust your frame until your motors are all perfectly straight. Your copter should not spin on its own with STB_YAW_P 0.
