I have been using my tracker (servo city gimbal) and just upgrade to a Pixhawk with 1.0 firmware. I have two issues with the Y axis.
I have position servos set to turn 360 degrees. When I fly past the limit it does not turn back to pick up the aircraft on the other side. I have to fly around to the front side until the error angle is less than 180 degrees before it swings to the airplane and resumes tracking. It worked with my old setup - what am I missing?
It has yaw overshoots. I assume I can fix it with PID tuning. Is here a tuning procedure I should follow or is it just trial and error?
Did you figure out how to tune the AntennaTracker yaw?
I have the same problem, I have been messing with the yaw PIDs and it either doesn’t move, overshoots, stops shy of the desired direction, takes a long time to start moving toward the desired direction, the more close it is to the right direction the longer it takes to correct itself.
Pitch needs work too but I want to solve yaw first.
My tracker has a slip ring and I am using a continuous rotation servo.
I didn’t find tuning instructions, they don’t seem to exist for Tracker and I’m not familiar with PID tuning at all so I need help.
There’s only 5 tuning parameters visible in the Extended Tuning page, but in the Full Parameter List under the YAW2SRV name there are several more yaw related parameters.
I suspect changing those parameters may help too but there’s just no instructions on what to do with any of them.
