Cheerson CX-20 problem

[Msantimanzano]

Hello everyone. I'm new here. Hoping to find some guidance.

Just bought my Cheerson, and the problem I am encountering is that it keeps rotating left. No amount of trim corrects the issue. If I apply stick to rotate right it does but as soon as I release stick it again rotates left. Can't really fly comfortably unable to hover it like this. Ideas, suggestions or thoughts please?

Thank you

When my Blade Nano QX 3D was doing that I had to calibrate the sticks on my Devo 10. Might work for you too.

Did you try recalibrating the accelerometers? With no avail?

Yea. Without any assistance I ended up dropping it off at my local rc hobby shop for them to look at it for me. I'm pretty down about this now.

Are you still experiencing this problem?

Yes

 

[GJH105775]

Yes

So as of now what do you know, and what have you tried?

Weak counterclockwise motors? Weak CCW ESCs? Bad internal gyros....

Try rotating the quad right as you turn it on, maybe that will counteract the bad gyros...

Message me when you get some time that you could talk, I can either talk to you on google hangouts, or call you.

Im just suggesting to the op what could be wrong with the quad. I dont have a cx20. Im also waiting the ops reply to what he has tried so far...

 

[GJH105775]

Oops, I should have better directed it to the OP hahaha.

So here we go again hahaha.

Hey all. Just curious if anything was ever found on this issue. I'm in the same boat. I can fly but mine is doing the same thing as OPs.

Any thoughts?

 

[Msantimanzano]

No solution and it has left me with a bad taste in the mouth on these quads

Have you flown it outside waiting to get full GPS lock?

 

[moose0003]

Yes. I wait for GPS lock each time I fly. I have calibrated the quad and the transmitter as well.

Lack of a GPS lock would not be responsible for the quad yawing nonstop. Unless I'm missing something on the purpose and function of GPS lock

When trouble shooting everything needs to taken into consideration, seems the proper startup procedure is a good place to start.

Good Luck.

Yes of course proper startup is important but, am I missing something in GPS lock absence making a quad yaw as if the left stick is being pushed left (or right)? I have a Phantom 2 Vision and despite GPS lock being part of the startup, I can take off with zero GPS lock (for example indoors) and fly without any issue. I'd think even the Cheerson can be flown indoors without GPS lock or am I mistaken?

Is the cx-20 better than the xk detect 380?
