Re: Uneven throttle on quad with calibrated ESC's.

Same here, MWii Pro and Q-brain working fine. However, on a mini quad I've just set up using a Multiwii Mini and separate ESCs, the Mwii powers up the left motors slower than the right side motors. This even happens when I go into dynamic balance mode and chuck on some power; the gyros etc are not e...

Re: MultiWii 2.3 not levelling after FF in Angle mode

Update 2: swapped in an identical board I got from a friend - problem went away immediately. So I had a faulty accelerometer in my board causing it to drift.

Re: A bug in THROTTLE_ANGLE_CORRECTION

Hi gurus, not a programming expert so wasn't sure how to make Alex's suggested change of "cosZ = mul(EstG.V16.Z , 100) / ACC_1G" work. Once I replaced the line in IMU.CPP and enabled AngleCorrection in the config.h, 2.3 wouldn't compile with the following messages: IMU.cpp: In function 'vo...

Re: MultiWii 2.3 p03 with corrections from MultiWii_shared

I also tried amending the published 2.3 with just the "cosZ = mul(EstG.V16.Z , 100) / ACC_1G" correction, and it failed the same way. As I'm not a programmer I can't go any further to fix this feature and will just have to leave it disabled.

Re: MultiWii 2.3 p03 with corrections from MultiWii_shared

I ported over my config.h settings and went to upload but your version won't compile. The following messages came up:

IMU.cpp: In function 'void getEstimatedAttitude()':
IMU.cpp:243: error: 'union t_fp_vector' has no member named 'V16'
IMU.cpp:243: error: 'mul' was not declared in this scope

Re: MultiWii 2.3 not levelling after FF in Angle mode

Update: adjusted default Level PIDs to:
P - 7.8
I - 0.008

This gives a more gradual return to level (less jerky for FPV/video) and seems to have lessened the issue I had with 'bounce back'. Still there a bit, but manageable now.

Re: 2.3 is finally here :)

I think I had to bump my throttle high end point up a few notches in my TX to get all stick commands working with both the 2.2dev and 2.3. I previously had throttle high set for 1900 but stick commands work more consistently if you push this up to 1910+.

Re: 2.3 is finally here :)

Hi, I posted this in the flight characteristics thread a little while ago (no replies), so expanding on issue here... With 2.3, my quadX with HK Multiwii Pro board seems to 'forget' it's level mode calibration if I make it go fast forward or fast backward for a while then release the sticks. Instead...

MultiWii 2.3 not levelling after FF in Angle mode

I've used 2.3 for a few outings now. On Angle mode, what I'm finding is that if I fly in one direction fast forward and then let go of the sticks, instead of the quad just levelling out, it actually pitches in the reverse direction and will hold this angle, flying back the way it came, until I corre...

Re: Multiwiiconf 2.1/2.2 constant crash

Right click on the exec file and 'run as administrator'. If this works, you can default it to this mode in properties/compatibility settings. I had no problems with this program but had issues getting the MultiWiiWinGUI to run. It's worth having a look at as it's a nicer interface. Had to do three t...
