Trad heli tuning + Fport can’t send telemetry back

[bnsgeyer (Bill Geyer)]

@Lorenzo_Pessah maybe you are better at manual tuning. In some ways I feel it takes longer, especially if you are seeing behaviors that you can’t tune out. Then you just start guessing.

Autotune can help as it can tune the gains to there best potential but again you may still some behaviors that it can’t tune out but at least you have data to see what is going on.

There is also analytic tune which requires you to tune it on your computer. But you can see what limits your tune. Certainly it has its limitations but it reduces the guess work.

The wiki shows how to perform autotune and there is a post on how to use analytic tune.

Using Analytic Tune Web Tool to tune your helicopter

Here is a video that describes how to use the analytic tuning tool to tune your helicopter. This only covers tuning the pitch and roll axes. The yaw axis is tuned similar to the multirotor pitch and roll axes which is described in Leonard’s video. This describes the basic tune. There are other techniques that involve using the PID notches that will provide a better tune. But just want to get folks started using the tool and asking questions. [Analytic tuning of helicopter]
