I have been struggling with this since I got it. I worked through noobie issues but now I can't help but feel I am past that and am possibly dealing with a bad board.
Basically, I can't get the thing to fly stable at all. It's always oscilating. To get it to fly without crashing, I have to turn the PIDs down so low (1.0, .01, 0 for example) it negates the benefits. Even then, it still has oscilations. I started with defaults then through reading tried the I and D at zero working on P until it oscilates. I don't get very high.
I have calibrated the ESC's on the copter (USB plugged in for power, arm, full throttle, connect battery, wait for music, low throttle, after music unplug all). I have calibrated ACC and MAG. They are smooth as silk when plugged in. I have tried 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 clearing the board before each upload. The BAR is not steady even when sitting on the bench. I do have foam over it. This might be normal...not sure. Props balanced. CG perfect.
My goal was to get position hold. I want to do FPV with head track eventually. That's why I got the MultiWii Pro. I am wishing I threw a KK2.1 into the order at the same time so I could test with it.
Any ideas?
