Strange behavior when switching between arm and angle-mode

Post by E_TE_T »

Everything works fine in my opinion.

I usually fly in the angle-mode. Just before I fly a looping I switch by remote control in the arm mode. After full throttle and roll stick to the right the looping starts.

After the looping is finished I switch back to the angle-mode. When the remotestick (nick + roll) is in the neutral position, I expect a hoizontale orientation of the qadrocopter.

But the qadrocopter remains in a left tilt and I have to take countermeasures.

After that, everything is back to normal.

I use a crius SE 2.0 board with an MPU5060 and a GPS-module.

Can someone explain this behavior? :o

Hello,
it is known issue and should be fixed in current dev. (_shared).

Hi to all,

When will we have a 2.2.1 version of MultiWii to correct the bugs found with 2.2? Most of the times, if not all, is not recommended that we use the _shared version to solve the problems like this one and get unexpected new ones.

I agree.
And using the dev-Versions from _shared makes it nessesary to self-compile a GUI that matches.

If you don't care to wait, you have to wait for the next release (some months).
Or you can try intermediate dev release knowing it could be not as stable as an official release.

If you expect an "official" patch approach after each problem reported, maybe for a full time job ;)

I agree with you, controlling and merging the changes would be a full time job. :) Currently I am still using 2.1 because it's working well for me and I don't want to loose that if I upgrade do 2.2. I need some courage to jump versions. :)
