Re: Can't get full throttle and lift off [solved]
Hello guys! I've solved the problem changing the battery from a LiFePo pack to a standard LiPo battery. Now my quad has power enough to lift and now I'm trying to tune my PID settings. Propellers and motors are still generating too much vibration, I'm waiting to get my propellers balancer that I've ...

Re: Can't get full throttle and lift off [solved]
For fun I just simulated a heavily vibrating aircraft. I was able to tune it back to a decent flight by drastically lowering the P-gain (and also I and D accordingly) Cool! I'll try to tune my PID settings again and see what happens =] Another question: On the video of my flight test, the battery i...

Re: Can't get full throttle and lift off [solved]
Hello guys, So actually the problem was the excessive frame vibration, causing typical signal errors. To solve this problem, I've uncommented the lowest lpf in config.h code: #define ITG3200_LPF_10HZ // Use this only in extreme cases, rather change motors and/or props I'm going to balance the props ...

Re: Can't get full throttle and lift up
PID adjustments aren't the problem. How did you cal the ESCs? Try doing each one individually off the throttle chan on the rx. What battery are you using? Are there excessive vibrations? Mike I've calibrated it one by one connecting the ESC's to the 3 channel of the Rx: full throttle > Plug on the ...

Can't get full throttle and lift off [solved]
Hello guys, This is my first Multicopter and I've been trying to lift up my quad for a few days now, but for some reason I can't get full throttle with my 4 turnigy 750kv motors. I've already calibrated all my 4 ESC's separately, set up the mid points of my Tx to 1500, and the range from 1090 to 195...

Re: Motors speed
I have tried running the motors up, and they are a jumping all over the place. When plugged into my comp on the GUI, it shows the motors not all equal. I am using this ESC .. http://www.banggood.com/SKY-30A-4-In-1-Brushless-ESC-2-6S-For-Quadcopter-Multicopter-p-90259.html Can anyone tell me if I wo...

Re: MultiWiiConf motors not reacting equal with throttle
Well your original video shows that you haven't adjusted your tx endpoints and midpoints, and it obviously doesn't have the props on in that video in which case the FC can't adjust the position of the copter and the motors will vary as it tries. Those readings only really help when the craft is in ...

Re: MultiWiiConf motors not reacting equal with throttle
I just lost track of what you did so...have you tried turning it on and off again? Joke apart. You were able to start your motors without flashing ANYTHING on the board? I would suggest that you do the following: UNMOUNT your props As you said, your ESCs are already calibrated Clear every 4096 byte...

Re: MultiWiiConf motors not reacting equal with throttle
Are the motors connected to your bord & spinning? They shouldn't, because if I see that correctly, you haven't calibrated your ACC yet (click CALIBRATE_ACC and hold bord still for 10 seconds). I think there is some influence of the sensors on your throttle signal, so these are some possible iss...
