Re: need help with tri-copter build Check out your yaw gyro pretty sure by what I saw in the video you need to reverse it |

Re: need help with tri-copter build Sorry guys, my gyros came undone after the flight and I stuck them on incorrectly for the photo shoot (in the video they are correct orentation) The problem I noticed was that the frankencopter was yawing to the right and if I continued to add more throttle(pitch) it would have corkscrewed it self into the clouds.Emdry did point out a valid point that my throttle curve was at 0 thus having no yaw gyro gain. Thinking it thru whilst I slept and tell me if I am out to lunch, but if all the ESC's did not calibrate 100-0 would that explain why one motor (front left) would not shut down after landing and returning throttle stick to off? Would this aslo cause excessive yaw? I will try one thing at a time when I have time this weekend and let y'all know. Thanks for help thus far http://il.youtube.com/watch?v=1fhKbpCG8BQ |

Re: need help with tri-copter build Welcome to RC Canada busybuilder! It's usually easiest to upload your photos right into your post for the guys to see. Good shots in your album though... https://www.rccanada.ca/rccforum/album.php?albumid=126 |

need help with tri-copter build Hello all educated in tri-copters, currently I have built one but are experiencing two problems 1: torque issues do I need to add dihedral if so how on square tubing 2: with current setup in TX one motor will not shut down (front left motor) at Zero pitch. Is this an issue with startup sequence??? any guidance would be much appreciated. Hey eye in the sky I guess you dont use HEFA anymore? |
