Please explain: Navigation Position P and I
Posted: Sun Apr 07, 2013 11:25 amHi all,
My quadcopter only seems to hold altitude when I use a non zero value for the Navigation Position I term in the navigation PID controller. Then it bounces up and down around the height alt/pos hold was engaged. The only person on this forum that mentiones using this variable is Larry. For the rest everybode seems to set Navigation Position I term to 0.
This poses a couple of questions:
- Am I masking some problem by using this parameter?
- How are the P and I term for position related? Found no description of it in the wiki.
- What range of values would you recommend for the I term?
- What value of Navigation Position IM should I use?
- Could you post screenshots of your navigation PID settings?
Best regards,
