My quad is toooo slow! No react! Not nervous!
#1
Hi all!
I've since few weeks finish my first setup. When I fly it, it's really nice, really smooth, but as soon as I want make some freestyle (flip etc...) it is soooo Slow!
If i push the roll, it will flip very very veeeery slowly! If i take some altitude, and try it higher, I will push it longer to make the "slow flip" but instead to make one, it will make two! and then crash....
When I do it at 30cm and try to flip, I even have not enough time to reverse the quad than it's already crash as it is sooo slow.
I've tried lot of different PID, I tried to make it very fast but nothing help....
Even my kingkong Tiny 7 is faster...


The setup is:
Frame AWESOME F200
Camera runcam swift 2
Motor emax RS2205 2300KV
prop Dalprop T5045C
FC Matek F405 OSD
ESC 4in1 BS30 (or something like that, 30A hollywing if i remember).
VTX Foxeer 200mW +  LC filter (I had noise when i push the throttle)
RX frsky XM+

Your rc_rate has to be higher if you want to roll and pitch faster. Try 100.

Also, what mode are you flying in? Horizon or acro?

I am just curious why you have to adjust acc_trim so much for roll?

Acro every time. No clue what is acc_trim haha
Ans thanks à lot for your answer!

Bring your acc_trims back to zero and recalibrate accelerometer.

Ok, so I did everything but still slow...

You didn't take rc_rate high enough. 100 is default. If you want to roll faster you have to increase it. Try 110, 120,130,140. Also remove rc_expo, that mellows out your stick near the center.

Ok this morning I went quickly outside to test, it's working but I think the problem is somewhere else:
First roll i've made, i just go at 1m, push the roll and crash.
Second test, i gave a quick punch on the throttle, and then a roll, and it works!

Could it come from the motorstop at the arming? Because on an other quad which doesn't have motorstop, it doesn't make same....
I don't have the reflex to give a punch of throttle before to make a flip, but I have the reflex to reduce to 0 the throttle, which may make this problem....

I will try to investigate deeper but today quite busy... I'm living in China (BUT FRENCH!!!) and i'm in the chinese new year! haha, but it might be the best hypothesis since when i'm flying normally, follow the road, turn around the tree, i don't have this problem!

Do you zero throttle during your flips. If so, I recommend flying with Airmode. Otherwise, if you don't run airmode, I recommend not completely going to zero when you flip.

Just to clarify what voodoo said, with "airmode" deactivated the copter will not respond to stick inputs at 0% throttle.

Ok... but then if i have motor stop deactivate will it be ok also? But then yes... airmode...

Motor stop will stop motor on arm and zero throttle. If you have airmode, it overrides the motor stop. Whether you have motor stop or not, it is personally preference. Either way is ok. Have no effect on rates.

I will go try it! Keep you informed! And again, thanks a lot!
