I was flying in auto mode with my Y6 and APM 2.6, going well until it was heading towards the last waypoint and it gave a DCM bad heading error, then in "failsafe" mode took off in one direction. Almost lost it, but it stopped finally then fell into
Read more…As soon as I put my Y-6 (arducopter 3.1 on APM 2.5) it begins to slowly rise. Even if I continually lower the throttle (which should reduce the targeted hold altitude) it still climbs. I think my vibration level is OK (generally <1). Here is a log

I've noticed that prior to takeoff what APM thinks is "level" is correct - I can hover with little stick input, and the artificial horizon is parallel to the real horizon on my OSD.
As the flight progresses, the artificial horizon becomes progr
Since upgrading to 3.1, I've had the following issue:
If my throttle trim is zero, then channel 3 is 1050 when transmitter is on with throttle stick all the way down. When my transmitter is off, then channel 3 goes to 1150.
In order to make throttle z

I can't even take off anymore. It flips over as soon as it gets any thrott
Read more…Running a quad with APM 2.5.... I've always noticed some left/right drift that seems to occur during flight - not consistently though. It is good after an autotune, but I start having to compensate with some left or right stick at times during the

Alt-hold is working great. However in both position hold and RTL the quad starts to rise. I've got the APM moongel mounted.
Here is my Accel_Z plot:
Too much vibration? I've got it moongel mounted. I figured since alt-hold is working well it
