About Me:
Robotic student that recently picked up interest for tricopters. Just starting to run automated missions with mixed experience.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
Born 5 years ago when I first saw a movie recorded of a downhill track with a tricopter. I built one in within weeks but was not able to fly it properly until I got more guts about 4 years later. When up in the air for the first time I decided to go for an easier board with autolevel

"Here is the log from today. I cant really interpreate any of this but see that at some point in autotune it just went straight down to the ground"
This has happened before on 3.1 and according to what I've read in the changelog for 3.2 this issue was to be resolved. Maybe in my case it depends on something else. Video below. machine spec: Flightcontroller: APM 2.6 Frame: Tricopter Motors:…
"okaj, that was a good explanation. Nice to see the code as well.
But from there. Should not the APM calibrate the motors accordingly to its maximum output? "

"Okej, thanx for the tip. But why is the default value 93 if the range is only up to 80? Would there be any difference between 93 to 80 or does 93 get interpreted some other way?"
"Thank you for this post. The MOT_TCRV_MAXPCT I've never hear about before. Mine was set to 93 when it clearly says in the parameter list the highest is as you say 80. Changed it now and will se if it makes any difference. =)

"I've got more after placing the antennas differently but have not tried it yet. Did trie though the equipment on an airplane and got at least a few 200-300 meters with good video. Bought new antennas (pictures above) but for some reason the one on…"
"I thought of the exact same fix but be aware that it could result in an unstable platform and eventually a crash. Maybe it would be smarter to calibrate at around 1900 or something so the FC still has some power margins of correction if you are at…"
"long time ago but how did you go about this? Did you manage to replace or did you buy new board?"
"thank you for your reply Richard. I will check it out. The background is that is has worked flawlessly in alt-hold before but they are lots of mods done and the crash combined. The stabilize mode is running really smooth so I just guessed the…"
"The Baro must be fried. I got for some reason signal loss with my transmitter today while flying and the copter entered RTL going crazy up and down finally almost crashing brutally onto the ground. Fortunatelly I got control again with the remote…"
I am using the Crius AIO pro board and running mpng's port of APM on it. It has worked flawlessly before but after a major crash and some modifications to the platform regarding changes in props, weight, reflashing, migrating from 3S to 4S battery…
"Trying my old multiwii the platform works really nice!.. I will go up to 4S batteri to be able to run APM, think it will do the trick."
"I went out flying today. I went back to my old multiwii board just of curiosity and I had the same problem at first until I found an old "fix" I had made. The pwm signal to motors is highest 1850 by default from user input in multiwii and setting…"
"Good idea. I can try and do that.
Thanx for the info about beta, did not know"

"Hi, have any of you guys solved the problem? I have tried everything in my power to fix this but going back in firmware. Was out today flying and had even less power than before I tried to fix this problem. Copter would not even lift when battery…"
