Hey folks,
I’ve been working through the set up of a Bixler 3. I’ve performed AUTOTUNE several times now, the plane flies great in FBWA. When I switch to auto throttle modes like FBWB & RTL, I am noticing high frequency chatter/pulsing throttle around ~2.5Hz (quite audible and you can obviously see it in the flight telemetry). I have tried increasing TECS_THR_DAMP, TECS_TIME_CONST and I’ve drastically reduced THR_SLEWRATE down to (15%) and these changes seem to improve things a little, but the chatter/pulsing are still there.
I have an airspeed sensor that is measuring but not being used for control (ARSPD_USE=0). I have not re-calibrated the ESC, I have been flying this Bix3 for years with this particular ESC and it has been working fine out of the box. Not sure if this could be a contributing factor to my throttle issue.
I flashed the pixhawk firmware about 2 weeks ago so I’m pretty sure I’m running 4.0.6 (I’m still a newbie to this, this is my first post!). Any help would be greatly appreciated!
