Tricopter Yaw bouncing back
Posted: Sat Oct 11, 2014 1:21 pm
I'm running a mini tricopter. I finally got it to fly decently, but I have some issues with yaw still.
The front props are counter rotating. When I turn left, it turns slower than right.. that's normal.
However, if I turn only slightly left (i.e. just adjusting the "nose" a little to the left, or turning very slowly) and release the stick, the copter turns back to the right a bit. Worst case, if I turn it just very slightly left, it may turn right further than even the initial position from which I turned.
Which of the PID values is responsible for this?
I actually remember seeing a tutorial that described this bounce back effect specifically, but I haven't been able to find it anymore.
Previously it actually turned a good quarter turn to the right just lifting off, I got rid of that by increasing I gain quite a bit.
Current PID yaw values are 3.6/0.058/5 .
