Can the KK2 board be re-calibrated after the initial calibration?


Thanks

Yes, and any time again if you like.

Hi,
Thanks.....but thats what it is now with lipo,soft cut off,so that it slows gradually...

I'm working on configuring my Devo 10 with devention firmware to work with an Orange RX 615 DSM2 rx and the KK2 on my new Armattan quad.

I had to set subtrims on the tx as the receiver test was showing -7's on most of the channels even after doing a calibration on the tx - not sure if this is normal or if there's a better way to do this.

I have configured self-level with the gear switch - cool.

I notice if I turn off the tx that the various channels in the receiver test show "no signal" except for Throttle which shows 42.
Is that the receiver doing some sort of failsafe? If so I'll have to find a way to get rid of that or may be drop it to 15% and get Auxiliary set to 100% to enable a fast but vertical landing?

Is that 42 an RC system failsafe?

Here's what I get in the receiver test:
Elevators fully forward = -93
Elevators fully back = 92
Max Throttle = 90
Rudder is maxed out at 93 on both left and right.
Aileron is maxed out at 93 on both left and right.

In the tx I had to put in values of ~ -7.2 on elevators, ailerons and rudder just to get the KK2 receiver test to have 0's.

So now I can't get a high enough value to arm/disarm the KK2 from the TX!!
Any ideas?

Run the dual rate up? Expo off?

Hi. I have a short question. I know that this topic is debated on another thread, but I'm posting my question here, since it has a greater chance that KapteinKuK may see it and give us the exact answer. So here it is: could the KK2 board with FW 1.4 or 1.5 be adapted to use wth this: http://www.kkmulticopter.kr/index.ht...Set2&id_no=115
I think I'm not the only one who would like some nice GPS featured KK2 board :>
Thank you and sorry for the spam.

Yes, but be aware that calibration can be considered to be just the rough setting. To tune the trim in self-level, use the ACC trim in the self level menu.

Guys, is it normal, that when the quad is armed, and i don't give it any throttle, it keeps beeping?

on the video's i saw, i did not here that beep?

and uh.ohhhh... i forgot to set up the lipo alarm.... lipo voltage went to low, and the quad completely flipped :P

one prop damaged, but hey, replaced it, charged the lipo (checked if it was ok), set up the lipo alarm, en went up in the air again

Yes, that's a safety feature added since V1.1. See #5 here:

When in the menus the kk2 does not send a PWM signal to the ESCs. Some makes of ESC will chirp when they do not have a signal. Some will do so, but only after an extended period of time.

The sensor calibration is primary, and as others have said can be done any time and as many times as you like.. ACC Trims are just that, trims for fine tuning. Many users never touch them, and among those that do there is disagreement on how effective they are.

With Self Level on if you hold the Elevator stick forward the craft will stay tilted forward untill you release the stick, at which point it will return to level, the default SL - P gain is pretty fast.

I did not like the fast response so reduced it untill the transtion to level was smooth as well as prompt.

I have Stick scaling higher than default to enable easy flips etc, then use a 65% low rate on Tx for normal fast circuit flying with SL on.

SL off and high rate for stunts.

Thanks thats pretty helpful. With the SL, will it bring the craft to a stop as well as leveling it? Is that the I gain (accelerometer) setting under the SL menu?

Thanks again

It will not bring the craft to a stop, it will level it, but any momentium will keep the craft moving in that direction.

The SL is P only, there is no I, but there is a limit.

Mine suddenly says sensor calibration sensor data out of range. have tried calibrating accs but still says that cant arm or anything, in reciever test all is good. and in sensor test all says OK ??? what can cause this
