Here's my Proof of Concept Test Vehicle, all taped up, suitable to change form quickly, but good enough to fly.

Ground plane is something I've done before for GPS and Transmitter modules, with good success... but I didn't realize it's quite important with Naze32 and Hara Kiri.

YES! It works! It stayed within 4" of wherever I put it. Bouncing up and down slowly but maintain altitude. This is GPS HOLD + Baro. I'm sure I can play with P and I to get better! This is a giant step from my point of view. You guys did great work to make this possible. Not only that, the plac...

@ Spotter6 .... Try increasing your groundplane under the GPS with something as simple as tin-foil just for a test. Now, you have me thinking again that I was right about those GPS's having deviation. But I will be confirming with the other two units I have from whitespy. Coming from an RF/Antenna ...

Regarding Mag_dec, it turns out that whether I entered it (-5d57') as -557 or -0557 it would store as -557, as seen on the "set" command from CLI. I've tuned mine P's with Gtune. And it's flying VERY VERY nicely. {F330 frame, DJI 30A opto and Red motors that have ceramic bearings, 8" ...

Thx! I thought I may have set min/max incorrectly so it could not detect down/right ARM.

Also, setting gps_type = 4 rather than 1 made much faster gps sat locks for me.

My gps unit is the cheap $18 one neo6 from witespy.

Thanks for sharing the settings, Mr. Fiero. I'm getting much closer to GPS PH now, still a little toilet bowling Clock-wise. I'm at -5d57' of declination. I entered it as -557. Oops. Just now trying -0557. I think that's the problem! Question: do you arm the motors with the stick control or the Aux ...

Hello, a dumb question here... I was not able to Motor Arm with the left stick (mode 2) Down-Right, as I could with BaseFlight and CleanFlight. The only way for me to arm was to set an Aux Switch to it. Is it possible? I use rc_mid = 1520 (Taranis like) rc_minchk = 1150 rc_maxchk = 1850 sticks can s...

Are PID values, either exactly the same or approximately the same, across FW forks ? In other words, are they the same in Cleanflight, BaseFlightC, and HaraKiri ?

Here's my AutoTune Result. Starting point: Roll: 4.3, .032, 23 Pitch: 4.3, .032, 23 Yaw: 13.5, .05, 23 With 9" 9334 props, Roll: 6.0, .036, 23 Pitch: 4.2, .032, 23 Yaw: 12.0, .036, 23 With 8" 8045 props, Roll: 8.2, .041, 23 Pitch: 4.2, .032, 23 Yaw: 16.4, .041, 23 FWIW, I'm a little suspec...

I don't see Auto Tune. Is it off the SW for now ??

My full Naze wanders too many feet then drifted downwind in GPS Hold mode. I'm trying to make PID adjustment so that it'd hold XY position better. My GPS page shows 7-9 sats inside my house, pretty good reception. Can you guys confirm which parameters would help it to hold XY position (POS, PosR, no...

@brm, I'm new here. Just offering my experience: MEMS gyros have to be handled with care in production and post production. Collision of packages and ceramic boards during production can compromise silicon beams inside gyros and accelerometers.

I'm new on this board, lurking for awhile.

I've been trying 10hz rate with my GPS module that is part of Skylark OSD, but U-center has that option grey'd out. So from what you guys are saying, that module won't do 10hz.

Which modules on market CAN do 10hz, if re flashed ?
