time for gimbal settings. Does anyone have some suggestions where to start?

AV130 22 roll 24 tilt

Will try this way then.

Like this:
4s >> MC >> RX
4s >> Wifi Module
4s >> CC BEC >> AV 200

The MC should have powered your receiver. Here's how I wire mine.

4s lipo go into MC.
Throttle: 3 wires going to MC (this will feed power to Receiver)
Aileron, Elv, Rud, ect... : just signal wire going to MC

cryhavoc,

I asked you about your current settings for AV200. I'm trying some numbers here but no luck. (I'm using mainly hoverfly pro as gimbal control)

For AV200 these number are too high...

if you are using the hvp for your gimbal control..keep using that
Until Zero comes out with better gimbal controls other than the two PTZ settings, you will be better off IF the HFP allows specific gimbal gains/speed/etc

For now, the FC's gimbal settings are 49 for Roll and 22 for pitch
my roll seems ok at 49, but for pitch..its either too sensitive, or not sensitive enough.
I will verify these numbers when I get home and pull the data from the FC.

and yes, you can use - numbers if your servo's go the wrong way when using positive numbers.

While still trying to sort out my GPS problem I switched from GPS mode to Manual and with the sudden drop, even though expected, I managed to brake an arm and one prop.

Damn this is getting frustrating. My next move is to reinstall the firmware, once I have the arm fixed.

For those interested, I changed my declination from 18 to 12 and then to -12 and then to -18 and no difference and then back to 18.

I hope the FW reinstall does it

What radio do you have?

I have a Futaba 7C...why? The whole thing flies well in Manual mode 1 and in Mode 2-Alt Hold Mode

Does the GCS app confirm those switches are working?

Why does the mah below battery voltage (data screen of app) sometimes shows the mah consumption and sometimes it shows 0? (my cell number at config is ok)

Thanks

Hi Nic...yes the GCS does confirm all the switches as correct.

Anyway, I have reflashed the firmware and I should have my rebuild complete in a few hours. I will then take it for a spin well 6 spins (hexa).
