All your endpoints except throttle need to be adjusted so that low is 1000 and high is 2000. Can you please post a pic of your flight controller from above looking straight down.

Please study the images. Note that when I look at the animated drone at the screen the Green arrow is pointing away( forward, not towards me ) , same direction as my actual drone. Is that correct?

And when I flip the drone in my hand left the animation flip right...! Flip forward make the animation flip downwards.
 
Try what RENOV8R said about board orientation . Post a pic of your quad with the top plate off or to the side so we can check for you.
Default board direction is whatever the little printed arrow is on it. But you can have it whatever you want. You could mount the board horizontal if you wanted & adjust it in the configuration tab.
As long as the USB port is on the outside, it would probably need adjusting by 90° or - 90° or not at all.
 
For some reason them pictures only just showed up. Looks like your board is 180°
Unless that on screen quad is side on.
If the 90 never worked that's why.
I can't make an arrow out on it but the print wording is upside down.
 
That second picture of yours down there is a dodgy XT60 that needs some protection. That's gonna give you a nasty sting or fry your quad.
Your thumb shorting on one side & your index shorting the other side = pain.
When I was a kid 8 I tried lifting a car battery by the nodes , ouch :confused:

Can you see the pic now? There is no arrow at this fc..

Stange thing is that the previous owner flew this ok. ( with a spektrum, I bought a new walkera and put deviation in it)
 
There is an arrow on the FC. but its tiny. The flight controller is facing backwards so take it off the mount and rotate 180 degrees, then remount it.

or alternately go to the Configuration tab, in 'Board And Sensor Alignment' enter 180 in the Yaw Degree's box. And Save.

12V, you can't feel that that car voltage.

But yes the lipo will burn

Ahh

But is it necessary to remount, is it not possible adjust direction in BF?

What about the opposite left/right tilt compare to the animation in BF? And is it correct to view the drone in my hand pointing the same direction as the green arrow ; away from me?

Yes, you can adjust it in BetaFlight. SLFLY - mentioned in his post above.

I would fix that before I worry about the tilt pictures matching. When it is correct, the picture in Betaflight should tilt just like the quad in your hand - assuming you have the nose pointing the same direction as the screen.

Correct! Yaw 180 and 4 days work ended.

I had to reverse the rudder from the transmitter, dont understand why.
But if flies now.

One last question: does the 360 degree matter when calibrating and aligning ?

Thanks to all answering me!
 
Glad it's finally working :)

The 360 degree position doesnt matter, the front is the front, when calibrating as long as its on a flat surface it should be OK.

If your quad hovers correctly, and the controls all do what they are supposed to do, then your good to go.
