A2 1.4 - losing altitude when flying straight forward

[roryhinds]

anyone know why I would be loosing altitude when flying straight forward and back.

I'm flying a X8 Coaxial and I loose a substantial amount of altitude when flying forward and have to pull up before hitting the ground. I start at 15 feet and fly forward and it gets down to 5 feet which is loosing 10 feet in altitude.

I get the same as do many others- happens on the Wookong too. Vibrations can cause this but there is only so much anti vibration tinkering you can do, the rest has to be made up with pilot skill ie compensating as and when required.

Thanks Carapau

I don't think its vibrations as my craft is solid and this issue has only appeared with the new updated to the A2.
Yeah I guess I have to get used to flying and pushing the throttle to compensate.

I think the phenomena is also caused by, maybe even mainly, ram air pressure build up during forward flight.
Assuming you have already tried tweaking the A2 controller gain for vertical control...?
