Hello ZeXx86,
after deleting the log I tried again today. Unfortunately without success.
Immediately after initializing the system, the swashplate moves up, when the Altitude Limit is activated and back when it is switched off, as well as when activating Return to Home.
After taking off there is no reaction, neither to Altitude Limit nor Return to Home.
After landing and switching to Altitude Limit the swashplate no longer moves up.
The log again says "GeoLink connection is broken".
In parallel I tried to get rid of the vibrations, but so far without success.
What else can I try?
Where can I send the Spirit GT and the GeoLink for inspection/repair?

Hello,

when activating Altitude Limit or Return to Home swashplate should go Up - depending on your configuration.
Altitude Limit is like a Rescue mode so it should move your model up as soon as it is engaged if it is above configured treshold altitude.

Return to Home also is trying to ascend model to a safe (configured) altitude. For this reason it is moving swashplate Up.

When these features are enabled then you might have no control (depending on your configuration). If Sticks Priority is set to 0 then you can't control swashplate. Default settings is that you can do a minor adjustments when these features are enabled. So you can increase Sticks Priority if you want to have certain degree of control.

On the other hand after landing behavior should be similar.

If this is not the case even after Clearing the Logs and updating to the latest GeoLink firmware 1.4.1 then please ship GeoLink to us according this page:

ZeXx86: I’m waiting for some replacement parts for my heli, hopefully I can bring down the vibration. If this not solve the problem. I will sent the unit.

I am afraid this is not related to vibration level.
Vibrations could affect precision of the features, but will not prevent from engaging.

@ZeXx86, the GeoLink should be at your facility since last Tuesday 06/25/2024, how many time do you think, the investigation will take?

Hello,

we received your package safely, thank you very much.
We are testing the module from the moment we received it and found no major issue. Since weather was not good we were able to perform only few tests outside. But from monday we will start again. Now we have national holiday so we are out of office unfortunately. Thank you for your patience.
