  • Hi Olli,

    Have you got the v3 manual?

    1. The cube flight direction cannot change, the set values you refer too are for thermopile orientation, those values are not used once you are flying with the IMU. 

    2. How old is your IMU cube?

    For autonomous launch you need to set the ground launch value (Line $56) to around 30, this is the altitude in meters where the autopilot will climb before returning to normal navigation. Also check that the throttle mid position ($46) is set high enough to make the aircraft climb, I had this set too low originally and it would not want to climb very well on auto launch, its great now with a higher value.

    Let me know if you perhaps want to chat on skype, its much easier than typing! ;)
