Off-center APM position question...

Posted by Rocketman on August 30, 2013 at 6:45am

Hi all.

I am re-configuring my quad after a maiden-flight crash and added ear plug mounts and re wired some things. Long story short, the mounting solution worked out best with the APM arrow facing forward as always but the APM board itself being offset to the left by about 1/2".

Will this cause major problems or just a small change in left vs right roll characteristics? Is there a setting in the config that I can change to account for the small offset?

Thanks-

Jim

    You should be fine. A little offset should not be an issue. I've had my APM off by a couple inches and it flys fine.
