Tune rudder, uSpirit with 230S
Posted: Tue 26. Jun 2018 19:56:27
Hi,
i am having some difficulty tuning correctly the rudder, with pitch changes the tail wags.
I used the following parameter in the documentation by setting the rudder (motor values) to Right limit to 126 and Left limit to 150.
I am not sure how i should configure the limits, i tried changing them and the result was that tail part of the ESC did not initialise.
Should i put my rudder max left max right with the Rudder end point box checked ? i am not sure what is the procedure to make sure the ESC still initialises.
I have the gyro set at 90% (rudder gain) on the TX, should i change the rudder common gain to get more control ?
"Rudder end-points (tuning)
Left / Right limit - Sets the minimum and maximum deflection of rudder rotor blades. We recommend setting these values for both directions to the maximum allowed range by the manufacturer of the helicopter. Otherwise, the rudder may not be able to keep the yaw direction during demanding maneuvers and tail blow outs may occur. Do not exceed allowed limit for your model.
Micro helicopters and µSpirit: When Tail rotor is driven by a dedicated motor, the Rudder ESC must be connected to the CH4 port. Rudder end-points are then used to set available Throttle range for the Rudder ESC from 0% (Right) to 100% (Left). We recommend to set Right limit to 126 and Left limit to 150 for the beginning."
