There are many potential reasons why your airplane does this:

  1. Have you tuned roll/pitch control?
  2. Have you tuned the TECS system?
  3. Have you tuned the navigation controller? NAVL1_PERIOD might be too low.
  4. You may have WP_RADIUS set too small for your airplane.
  5. You may be placing your waypoints too close for the turn radius of your airplane

It is imperative that you properly tune the internal control loops (roll, pitch, yaw, throttle) before tuning the outer control loops (navigation). Follow the Wiki step-by-step instructions for each and you should end up with a reasonable flying airplane that navigates fairly well. Good luck!

I think you should take the advice that @pbrown gave you. The pitch and roll performance could benefit greatly from tuning. It appears that the values are all default.

thanks much for answer, is autotune works?
