Re: Heading hold on Yaw Issues

I posted about this earlier this year

It doesn't matter if MAG is selected to not, the yaw hunts as it it is trying to maintain a fixed heading.

In fast forward flight you don't notice the issue, but any kind of hover, or trying to yaw in slow flight, the board seems to fight you
