Please help tuning PosHold

[Cookiemonsta]

Hi,

I have the following problem. My hexa does somekind dance around the target position.


My PID values are as follows:

PID

MIXER

The lower rotors of the Y6 have 95% throttle

The video to this flight is:

(POSHOLD all the time with NO STICK-INPUT)

Any suggestions to get this thing flying perfectly are welcome

For analytics I also uploaded the log datas:

RATE

ACC

MAG

MOTORS

TEMP

First of all, your Accels are showing what looks like a lot of vibrational noise. That will degrade the estimation quite dramatically. Actually you are close to saturating the X/Y accel, so you need to look into that and try and reduce vibrations. That is the first thing to do.

Z-mag is also quite noisy, even when craft is static. You probably need to go over the wiring and find/eliminate the cause of this noise.

Pls post a screenshot of GPS_HACC - if its higher than 1 you wont get a very good pos or alt hold. Ideal is < 0.5

Have you verified calibration results:

Hi Jussi,

I verified the results and they didn't look that bad, actually I opened a thread for comments on the calibrated result :

As you requested here is the HACC plot:

GPS_HACC

It's way below 1 meter.

The above ACC plots were made in a very gusty and windy flight. So for a better comparison I add some plots of the ACC and the pitch and roll Inputs during a series of flights in PH when there was NO wind at all.

ACC NO WIND

PITCH AND ROLL INPUT NO WIND

I hardmounted the FC and tried to reduce the vibrations by balancing my motor-prop combo with a laserpointer to almost perfect. Previously I tried rubber standoffs but they made it even worse so I don't really know what else to do. Do you have an advice to get that x/y accels calm down?

Thanks for any suggestions and help!
