reclibrate your esc's. How did you do this?

Quadraf

Calibrate your esc's.

Quadraf

Did you calibrate the ESC's?
Did you check motor direction spinning is correct?
Did you check the propellortype (blade) on left or right turning motors?

Quadraf

check this first
1. Motors connected to the wrong port (most common error).
2. Esc not calibrated correctly (how did you do this?).

My Ublox Neo-M8N is working in Multiwii2.4: Follow this youtube film: m Make sure the protocol for in and out are UBLOX and NMEA as proposed (check this at least 2 times!, mine reverted somehow). Use the settings LEO proposed: GPS serial 2 GPS 57600 baudrate (not faster because of the error-rate as ...

Another way is to copy the Javaw.exe to the javapath directorie. You must have administrator rights todo this. In my case for instance: 1 rename javaw.exe in C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath to javaw2.exe 2 copy Javaw.exe FROM C:\Program files(86)\Java\JRE1.8.0_45\bin TO C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Jav...

@Katch
I missed your post, very good indeed! Multiwii should outsmart NAZA on pos hold.

@ Timecop I shall put u at ease. I don't fly NAZA, only Multiwii... Unfortunatly... more then 50% from the multicopter guys i know DO fly NAZA...They must be really stupid @ ABL Altitude position hold is king on NAZA, but i have to admit i never saw someone fly harikiri...? I don't think Acc/z is im...

@timecop
I merely stated 1 strong point... Please copy that feature and we are all yours...

Hans

Quadraf

My observations regarding NAZA: 1: Very good altitude POSITION hold! ( the main selling point IMO). I am always impressed seeing these NAZA copters do the Altitude Position hold trick... I believe that they have a way to take in account not only GPS and Baro but also a SECRET Acc/gyro algoritme to a...

Or you can use MWii-Preflight to do all the settings including mag callibration time up to 99 sec

Glad you found the problem.
Maybe when connecting the SE-board correctly it wil function again...

Hans

Quadraf

Yes and to explain: I have a miniwii board and when i accidently turn the ftdi adapter 180 degrees i only have stable blue and green led. When connecting correctly the arduino starts-up with pulsating leds loading arduino-stuf. But now it seems you don't have this simple problem? uhm... Another poss...

Quadraf

Maybe the cullprit is that you turned the adapter 180 degrees...

Hans

I think you have to recalibrate this esc trottle range for proper values between 1000-2000.

my 2 cents: Most speed problems are caused bij the rxtx Serial.dll as doughboy pointed out .Go to this page to install the rxtx serial.dll in the multiwii.conf directory, wich is 10 times faster : m Then there could be a problem when having many com ports open as a result of Blue-tooth drivers. you ...

I think when you push the CALIB_ACC (acc callibration) button your problem wil be solved?...

Strange ... your Roll value should be around 1500 ( stick ...

You realize that this would only work with no wind?

Nope... In that case incapsulate it with foam.

uhmm... speed in cm/sec. Does this mean one can create in conjunction with other sensors (zero speed) non drifting multicopter? That would be great

Stabilisation is always on 2 axis (is 3D). The third axis is not stabilised because it is used for turning the camera in the horizontal plane (panning). If you have a spare channel and (mostly 360 degree) servo you wil have your third axis without using muliwii.
