hi everyone i am new to the hobby and i managed to build a full quadcopter by following the very well known $99 dollar quad from uavfutures. ive been try to fix this one issue of my quad being very sensitive even at 10%-15% throttle or less straight after takeoff. this problem i believe is to do with my motors that may be faulty as i have had other issue with them in the past weeks when building the quad. when i arm the quad and take off it seem fine for 1 second at a 1 high ish metre hover , but then it starts to fall very slowly , so when i correct this by adding the smallest and i mean the smallest amount of throttle it shoots up and i end up disarming it and catching as it comes down. i have watch many video on how to calibrate and tune my quad and havent seen any improvement . iam currently using dshot300 as my esc recommend as well as blheli . and before somebody says i dont re correct after i have calibrate it. so if anybody has any suggestion i would love to hear them thanks - jack
Nobody explains RC Rates better than JB. This should give you a better understanding of how to control your quad to your feel
Sounds like his settings are off. Perhaps try resetting the pids. Do a board reset in the setup tab next to gyro calibration & do not load any backup settings. Just setup the modes & failsafe. Then see how it flies. If it still persists then it's probably the esc settings as the pids & rates have just been reset. Throttle is a thing to master. Even if you do sort it out. Have you messed with the throttle mid-point, you might have brought it right down. Instead if having 25% throttle at 25% stick you can have 100% throttle. Or you could have 2foot long sticks, that would counteract speed
What esc's & protocol are you using. In bl-heli configuration tool, check all the point are where they should be. 1000 2000 I have mine at 1020 + 1980 same in betaflight. This is for other reasons.
i will do that thanks , iwill get back to you when a new receiver comes as mine broke during todays flight
