dumbing down the corrections

Post by LuisFCorreia »

Hi again,

is there a way to kind of 'dumb down' the corrections made from reading the sensors?

I need to figure out if the problems I'm having with my copter's instability are from bad gyro, bad build or just me.

If you want to debug the problem a little more : setting a 0 P & I & D is equivalent to bypass the sensor corrections.
ie only RC sticks would control the servo movement and motor speed change.

In the computeRC(), there is some kind of running average of the received values of the last 4 samples?

I ask because I've reduced the PID settings to all 0s and I still fail to see the intended movement.
