Autoquad 6 Q&A

[ade]

Please explain some questions about autoquad stability on hexacopters.

1. Behavior with 1 broken motor
2. Behavior with 1 broken prop

I've seen video with redundancy test on octocopter. Autoquad flies great. And what about hexacopters?

Hi AQ-Friends,
maybe my post is a little bit off topic but I don´t know were to write else.
I ordered the Autoquad 6 with Dimu, 6 ESC32 with CAN and a GPS-Shield in december from Jussi.
Everything came pretty quick just the GPS shield was missing.
On the delivery note it says "GPS-Shield in Backorder will send later"
Since two weeks I try now to get any information about the delivery date for the shield,
but till now I don´nt got any reply of my emails.
As well I need a invoice for my order asap for my tax office.
Does anybody know how to contact them quickly (telephone number, skype etc.).
Best regards
Chris

hi rosewhite,
I tested my hexa with differents motors and It was impossible to take off without crash the hexa. It flip immediatly. But with quatos it can take off but with yaw.
Anyway I not tested the headfree. May be a good thing.

Hi Alain,

I have tested it so far on a Rubina Hexa and a Tamara Hexa with MultiWii 2.1 (quite old version), Naze32 with Baseflight, Quanton with Taulabs and AQ6 with PID. If the same copter flipped with PID but flies with Quatos, it only tells me that your PIDs were way off of what they could have been.

A Yaw drift is acceptable under such conditions. At least it is better to keep level stable with the remaining motors than heading.
