Loiter makes my Quad trying to escape?

Hello,

just finished building my X525 with APM2.5, and without PID Tunig it works already very nice. Stable, responsive, no wobble. 

The only headache: Loiter is a mess. The Quad instantly flies *somewhere*. Altitude hold works fine, but whenever I switch to Loiter, it rapidly flies away. 

Any idea, what this could be? After powering it on, it takes around 2mins to get GPS lock (blue LED stops blinking), then I fly around for a min, and then testing the loiter. 

Is there anything more to calibrate than the gyros? Something might be forgotten, to explain this behaviour?

Thanks,

Michael

  • Hi, did you find a workaround for this ? I have the same problem, when I switch to Loiter mode, the quad take a lot of altitude, I have to switch back to stabilize in order to bring him back.

    Thanks
