(Sorted) Auto leveling

[Leon]

So I tried the auto leveling again and again it did not work.

What I discovered was that when I start and test the setup on the ground (only normal mode and tilt swash and move to auto level mode , all works as it should) I will pick the heli up and while hovering flick in to auto level mode and sometimes it will enter auto level mode and other times it wont. When I land and test it again there is no response from going into auto level mode (swash will stay tilted even when moving from bank 0 to 1. When I pull the battery and start again all will work fine.

Attached is the new settings. They are very similar to the old settings I had

For now I have done a factory reset and re did the setup. Will test the unit tomorrow.

Can anybody please help or indicate to me how to get hold of Thomas or perhaps forward this message to Thomas.

Tomas is on vacation should be back tomorrow. In the mean time have you checked you vibrations ?

Thanks for the advice. I will check on the floor with blades removed and during flight this evening

Hello,

I am back

Can you tell me how did you configured switch for changing the banks?
It is possible that there is very small difference so that Banks are not really switched - depending on transmission condition/temperature it can work sometimes and sometimes not.

If you are using bluetooth module or wifi-link, do not forget to close the software (connection). Otherwise banks can't be switched anymore.

What is happening when stabilisation does not work, but you will activate Bank with the Rescue mode? Is swashplate tilted too? Do you see collective pitch change?

[Leon]

Got a dx9 radio. What I did was assign one 3 way switch to do the banks (+100 0 -100)

When I plug the battery in for the 1st time then I can see everything working. Switch to bank 1 and swash levels out bank 2 and swash levels out + shoots up for the pitch.

If I hover the heli in normal mode then switch to bank 1 (level) it wont level out (for some reason I found it to work once but only after doing a factory reset). While this is happening and I land and then move to bank 1 or 2 nothing happens but in the radio I can see to changes. (what I discovered as well is that when this happens my Bluetooth does not pick the unit up)
Only after I pull the battery and re plug it will work again.(only then the Bluetooth will work as well)

I fear there is some electrical issue that is causing the problem.
Can you leave the unit powered on for 10 minutes and then connect the software?

Do you use a RPM sensor or using Spektrum satellite ports to something else than satelllites?

Can you take a photo of your connection?

The problem with Bluetooth is very likely related with the stabilisation (Bank) issue.
If you do not start the motor is the bluetooth working all the time (even after similar time period that you fly)?

[ZeXx86]

Do you fly with bluetooth module connected in some way (even during flight)?

[Leon]

No, got a switch to power on and off

[ZeXx86]

Can you try it also without module (completely disconnected?) and connect only when really needed?
Respectively disconnect everything that is really not needed to exclude any possibility of interference.

[Leon]

Will do
