Dear All,
I have a QUADX and it flies good with 1.7 Software.
Now I have updated the Copter with 1.8 and in ACC Mode it is nearly impossible to trim the Copter after some stick movemends it starts to drift right more and more.
If i land, stop motors, calibrate ACC and resart it works until I touch the Sticks on the RC.
I reduce the LEVEL P Value to 5.01 it's a little bit better now but the effect is still there.
Who can help me?
regards
Oliver

Re: Drift in ACC Mode
which ACC do you have?
Re: Drift in ACC Mode
I'm glad I'm not the only having this problem.
Check out this thread maybe there's a bug in the code or we have a slimier hardware setup that has an issue.

Re: Drift in ACC Mode
Hi again
I've installed the MAG HMC5883 and BARO BMP085. With Soft 1.7 the ACC was working well together with MAG and BARO.
Same Hardware with Soft 1.8 and the System have a drift like the description in my first Post.
I've raday a second Copter with the same config (the Motor arms are 2cm shorter) but it have the same drift error.
I'm 99% sure it isn't the Mechanik, or Props. I't looks Like an Software foult like some Akkumulation of Parameters in ACC Mode.

Re: Drift in ACC Mode
which gyro?
I have one copter with similar problems: wmp,bma020, no other sensors.
edit: it is with wmp, not adxl345 - too many copters, get all confused, sorry

I made a video of the BMA020 that I have, it would drift as much as 15 points. I replaced it and everything is fine now.
I documented it here: http://www.multiwii.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=592
Re: Drift in ACC Mode
Try autolevel I =0 as per other thread...
Also shield acc from heat / sunlight / temp changes. That is definitely an impact on mione
Also make sure heavy power cables to not run straight next to acc.
I try for 1 inch separation. I did some testing and there seemed to be an impact on flying. More twitches and drift. I never proved it 100% though. Sometimes when you look for things you see them when not really there.
