Navigation

Posted by Erik Hatch on April 7, 2011 at 6:57am

I had 2 very successful flights yesterday. Altitude hold was great, and my aircraft hit all waypoints. However, when going from point to point, the plane did not go in a straight line. it made "S" turns. Does someone know the best way to correct this? APM 2.0 with Mediatek gps v1.6. I have made no changes to navigation PID values. I have made some small changes to roll, pitch, and yaw to PID servo values.

Thanks

Erik

You need to tune the nav gains, not the servo gains, to fix snaking between waypoints.
