Loiter issue

I have built my first Arducopter from a jdrones store kit and how cool is it!

 

I have been manually flying it to test it and check the Xbee link etc and have no real issues with that.

 

Floats around more than I thought though.

 

Tried ALT mode and seems to work OK with both sonar and barometric for low and high.

 

Then I decided to try loiter....well on all occasions the copter decided to try to go awol almost instantly putting the nose down and going off on an adventure it seems.

 

Am I missing something? Do I need to tune it? (defaullt settings?)  Am I doing something wrong?

 

Thanks.

    Did you wait for a gps lock before arming the motors?
    Do you have a log file you can upload?
