Try turning your I on the yaw down and see if that decreases the problem. Because that is where you need to look.
The yaw is not stablized, such as the pitch and roll!

Something that is easily looked over looked that I had dialed into my radio once:

I had my radio set for vtail and it was still flying but doing some weird crap because my corrections were commanding yaw and ail mixed. Other mixes could cause similar problems so check into that too. Doc will get you taken care of but I hadn't seen that mentioned yet so give it a look.

Thanks for posting the point!!!!!!!
I allways assume that these simple things have already been checked two and three times. But, you are so right! He could have something turn on in the radio that could cause and weird response from the Quadrino.

It has been kind of silent around here in the past weeks.
Oh damm, that makes me sound lonely. LOL!

Remember guys, you really want to get ready for tomorrows WEBex disscusion time.
All those that are having issues.
Make sure you have the latest firmware (2.1) and Arduino (1.1).
It will make it easier to get you taken care of and move on to the next subject.
I have a feeling we are going to see that new GPS module, which is built for the Quadrino, with a 20 hz cycle time which means it talks to you board faster and more often to give you a more accurate position.
I know most of you are iching for one. Well guess what, so am I!

Well guys, back to working on some of my projects.

Guys I've been toying around the the I2c expansion board.

It works.... An added bonus! The mounting holes almost perfectly line up with the stand offs on the board. I say almost because you need to file about 1 mil from each hole on the expansion to not stress the boards.

I'm more than likely going to mount it under the board. But I do have to sort the stand off question.

Here is the eBay link where I purchased it. It took about a month to arrive down here from Hong Kong if you're interested.

Hey Guys,

What is the latest version of the Quadrino Board. I am looking at HoverThings.com and they say that they sell board 3.1 -- RCDude sells 2.0 .. both say in the picture REV 1E ... so what is the actual latest board version? RCDude is $150 while HoverThings is $145..

There is the 1C , 1D and 1E boards.
The 1E boards have EZ-connect plurgs and wires on it!
There is a new gyro on some of the 1E.
It is no better that the gyro that is on the others.
But what it has as an advantage at this time is it does two jobs.
The boards with the new Gyro has no ACC chip on them because the new gyro does both jobs.
But the is no real version 2 - 1000.
Maybe thay see it as RC Dude carried the Quadrino basic and the zoom!
Could his thought process be that the zoom which has more features, would be two time better than a Naza. Hahahahahaha!
Okay that was a joke.
I just watched some one do the Naza dance for GPS calibration.
it was so funny he did it like three time before he got it straight.

Is there a new sketch in the works that will take advantage of this new chip, and possibly enhance its capabilities?
