My APM Maiden

Hello All,

Got a chance to get my APM setup in the air today with wireless telemetry.

Here's a quick video of the setup.


She actually seems fairly well trimmed.  Here's my initial concern that I need to investigate.

When she's flying fairly straight and level, I switch into FBW, and the IMU thinks I'm at -40 roll.

The pitch seems fairly accurate, but when in FBW on the ground, I can't get very much "nudge" in pitch.

When I try and nudge the rudder in FBW, I can get full deflection.

Any tips?

    I can't help you on the IMU portion, but I have a big update coming on APM soon. Maybe in a few days.
