Alt_ Hold Fly away with Kakute F7 AIO First Flight - need help!

@dkemxr

#Is the barometer covered with foam? It’s #required on these boards. Any boards really but #the F4/F7’’s w/o housings its important

Dave-
How do you secure the foam on boards w/o cases (eg omnibus f4)? And what type of foam do you use for this purpose?

The barometer is on the bottom side of the board so if your build allows sandwich a square of open cell foam between the board and the plate it’s mounted to. That’s what I have done with this FC and a F4 Nano. This type of foam is often used for packing material.

Great idea - I’ll try that

Dear Helpers!

Thank you for your kind and professional support.

I followed all your recommnedations, checked everything with the wiki again and made today the second maiden flight. The result turns out to be fantastic. The copter behaves very good and can be steered easily and correctly. I started in stabilized mode and went trough loiter and alt_hold. I now have enough data to analyze for fine tuning and then to prepare for GPS modes.
Kind regards,
Andreas
P.S. If needed I can upload a video from the maiden flight in loiter as well as the logs.
