SingleCopter project, progressing again

colorforjune,

I’ve attached the recent PIDs, DF log and parameters. I don’t think the ArduCopter version makes much difference. On a suggestion from the forum I backed down to 3.6.6 at one point to try something but it did not work any better than the latest version. I typically try to stay with the latest version to make it easier for the ArduCopter creators to troubleshoot.

I performed a lot of test flights with a lot of changes to get the SingleCopter to fly acceptably. In retrospect all of the physical changes to the aircraft were good improvements that I just did not know about in the beginning. Same goes for the parameter changes. Learned a lot about stability and CG, landing descent speeds and sensor behavior from this project. Good luck.

Paul,
Thanks a lot. If there is any progress, I will share it with you.

hi flyingw,

I am trying to make a singlecopter using inav.

Here’s the mixer I am using

smix 0 3 2 100 0
smix 1 3 1 100 0
smix 2 4 2 100 0
smix 3 4 1 100 0
smix 4 5 2 100 0
smix 5 5 0 100 0
smix 6 6 2 100 0
smix 7 6 0 100 0

Am my missing anything here? or can you give me your mixer settings.

Thank you.
