  Thanks  Nathanie

     Great advice , I will try individual  axis auto tune tomorrow.

   I assume I must disable pitch /roll lock first.

  something else that i notice is that with the  "B" configuration that all prop nut are in "auto undo" rotation mode , I think a possible fix is to swap props  and motor to pixhawk  connections top to bottom and then reverse all rotation directions ,all changes cancel out.

  .prop strikes definitely do loosen the plain nuts ( I am now using nylock nuts)

   Thanks again for the advice

  You can also select individual axis for tuning now as well. For example you can just tune roll if you want, or you can tune roll and pitch, or roll and yaw. It's controlled by a parameter that can be set before running autotune. You can read about it here in the 3.3 Beta thread.

  Autotune does tune yaw in AC3.3 rc1.

  Right, auto tune only tunes roll and pitch.  If yaw is weak, check that the motors are all turning the right way.  I had one arm inverted in my Y6, and that made yaw hard to control.  Other than that, stock yaw PID's work fine (actually, I even left my roll and pitch PID's alone, as they work just fine; never did the autotune).

  Auto tune does not tube yaw.

  Hi all

             I tried auto tune on my y6 b , 5000 ma 4S battery 850kv motors 10x4.5 in props

  battery was finished before auto-tune finished ? 13 minuets,  (yaw just started)

  any one have a set of pid parameters  for me to start with?  yaw hold seems weak with standard settings

  Thanks Tim

  Anyone know where I may be able to find older versions of the firmware for the arducopter, more specifically the one in which would have been in use last summer?

  Thanks,

  Hello,
  Just have my first crash with my Y6 RTF...do not know exactly what happens, I load a small mission , read it to check it was inside correctly, then went to auto launch it took off went strait to around 50 mts and just moved to the oppossite side in a spin large curve, I went to RTL with no exit...went into big trees and broke tarot 2, riped two motors plus 5 propellers and the GPS antena...before going to repair it and fly again just want to understand what was going on, what did I wrong...
  I know these days GPS have been affected by the solar problems...but I am not sure..

  I have the logs I am uploading for someone to help me

  Thanks in advance

  I own a Iris+ , supreme, never fail always work well... even after the crash I made a couple of flights with it and worked great.
