Hello, I have a pretty large hexacopter that crashed recently and i would like to know if anyone could help interpret the log and give me some insight. 16 5-14-2025 12-47-12 PM - Copy.zip (804.2 KB)
any help is greatly appreciated; I do not have any knowledge on reading the data logs but would really like to see if there is any information on the cause of the crash. Thank you in advance.
There is a very large spread between the CW motors (1,3,6) and the CCW motors (2,4,5) This is usually because of a frame alignment or motor twist issue.
The crash looks like a failure in motor/esc/prop 2. It’s gone to full, while the opposite arm (motor 1) is trying to lower to balance out. You can see it rolled to the left (towards the failed motor 2), but the FC was commanding right
No ESC data so can’t really go past motor/esc. There was a big momentary spike in current before the roll so I’d look for something that looks like it let out it’s magic smoke.
