Re: Chinese 'Rabbit' FC uses MultiWii code, no credit given

They use MMA8452Q accel, which is currently the best quality digital accel available. That would explain auto-level stability. As far as I know sonar altitude hold is the only thing that was demonstrated as being "better", and that one is easy to do on a proper micro with enough PWM input...

Re: Inflight ACC-calibration

Hi, This inflight ACC-calibration is really a clever idea I have adopted it for my JPWiiMultiCopter and slightly modified the logic to prevent going to LEVEL mode if the inflight calib has not been done yet. So my logic is : 1) At the end of Arming procedure, chaeck if the left stick is in the upper...

Re: A different approach to levelling ? - drift killer?

I can't imagine that the drift is due to the 8g ... My quad is drifting just when taking off very gently... 1.1g max. The problem seems to be subtle: the average value can be 1G, but the instantaneous values could exceed 2G due to vibrations. You won't even see the problem by analyzing the output o...

Re: A different approach to levelling ? - drift killer?

Hi Alex, Thank you for this prompt reply to a non FCWii man I have also uploaded a video. I have just noticed that my radio is not perfectly centered... I will have to add a "deadband" around the neutral points. I can't imagine that the drift is due to the 8g ... My quad is drifting just w...

Re: A different approach to levelling ? - drift killer?

After a bit of testing, I really do like this option This would be my final suggestion... Use currently unused "level D value" on the GUI /LCD setups to control the max rotational speed in returning to level ..... replace PTerm = (int32_t)errorAngle*P8[PIDLEVEL]/100; to: PTerm = constrain...
