Switching from Stabilized to Loiter

ArduCopter

Hello,

I have a small “jumping” issue when switching from stabilized to loiter,the Heli is descending a little and when changing back to stabilized it’s gaining height a bit, I think it’s related to throttle stick center, what is the right way to tune it?

Thank you for your help

Hello @rotems,
Enable MOT_HOVER_LEARN and fly in stabilise mode of some time. Arducopter code will to set mid throttle automatically. This should resolve your issue.

Hello,

Thank you for your fast replay.
Can you please describe of how it should be done?
Do I need to enable MOT_HOVER_LEARN for one flight or leave it enabled? need to save parameters?

Thank you

Hello @rotems,
You can leave it auto learn and save. Fly in stabilise mode for 1 to 2 minutes (until it hovers at 50% stick) and you should be good.
No params to save.

“Heli” means four motors or single motor configuration ?

Hello,
Single rotor

OK, I will try that.
Thank you

a picture can save a bunch of emails. I assume this is like a Align Trex like helicopter then posting your question in the “Traditional Helicopter” forum can help

what do you get if you try it?Not sure about the suggestion of “auto learn and save” will do for you? “Fly in stabilizes mode for 1 to 2 minutes” with your current configuration will do what?

Hey @rotems,
Do please post picture. I thought it was multi-rotor.
