Hi all. I was trying autotune for the first time on my hexa; everything was going well, the process ended and I flicked the switch down and up again to test the new PIDs. It felt okay so I decided to land and disarm with the switch up in order to save those parameters. Sadly the parameters weren’t saved (I think my mistake was that I landed in RTL mode). Anyway, I was checking the ATUN values in the flight log to see if I could find the final PID values. Is this possible?
Hi, no it is not possible.
RTL changes the flight mode from Autotune so you are correct for the reason of new PIDs not saved

Thank you Gal, I appreciate your response even though it’s not what I would like to hear haha.
You could have a look at the parameters in the log and manually search for each parameter. If a parameter has been updated, you’ll see multiple variants of the same parameter in the log. So just take the latest value. I can’t remember if that’s the first or the last value but as your parameters haven’t changed, check what your current PIDs are and compare it to the autotune logs
The current tested parameters are saved in the ATUN message in the .bin
log file.
You can and should use the latest values as a starting point for your next autotune attempt. Especially if the autotune takes longer than you battery life.
