Discrepancy between flight plan and actual route

Hello!

I set up the flight plan as follows and flew the flight.

  1. takeoff 2m
  2. delay 5s
  3. land

The actual data is as follows.
2025-04-10 12-19-23.bin

The altitude went up to about 5m, and it was supposed to take off and land on the spot, but it moved quite a bit before landing.

I will share any parameters that are of interest.
I would also appreciate any advice, no matter how trivial.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Your vehicle is not set up correctly; bad GPS and/or compass setup/reception. Use Correctly configure ArduPilot for your vehicles on your first attempt | MethodicConfigurator this configurator and follow it to the letter, then try again.

Thanks for the reply!
It’s great to know that such a system exists because I had no idea about changing parameters!
Thanks for letting me know!
I’m using it for the first time, so it may take some time, but I’ll definitely reply to you next time with the results afterwards.
Thank you very much.

Please put aside you vehicle, and start reading the documentation. Only start flying when you completely understand what is happening and how to setup and tune a vehicle.
Start here : First Time Setup — Copter documentation
And continue here : First Flight with Copter — Copter documentation

Long time no see.
This is off topic, but I am currently working on “First Flight with Copter”.
I have reduced parameters such as ATC_RAT_PIT_P by 50% but still find it difficult to operate.
It is difficult, if not impossible, to switch to ALTHOLD mode because even small changes in throttle cause a drastic change in the speed of the aircraft.
Is this inevitable at this stage?
