Calibration

Keep in mind, your flight control does calibrate gyroscope on its own at every reboot. So do not move copter for a few secounds after power on , until status led stops flashing.

To manual calibrate the neutral of gyroscope sensors, you must tilt the yaw stick left, tilt the pitch stick back while having the throttle stick in minimal position. The multicopter should not move during this stage. However its inclination has no influence. The status LED will blink to confirm this step.

Trim

Use your transmitter trims while in air to correct drift in Acro mode.
