Pavo30 goes crazy! Help
#1
Hi all! I'm building my first quad from the scratch and it really not so easy).

I planned to make custom small cinewhoop and took Pavo 30 frame.

I Used F405 Mamba Mini mk3 stack 4S
Tbs Nano rx
Wolfwhoop q-1 VTX
Runcam Phoenix 2

and used the motors which I ordered previously for another model

Iflight xing 2203.5 3600KV

I Did all setups and drone worked, I was really happy and excited.

But the problem is when I'm throttling a bit, drone goes crazy and hovers. (props, mapping and direction fine)

Also drone vobbling and oscillates at lower rpms and sometime after I take throttle at 0


Also I cant figure, is this accelerometer software of hardware problem...When I take the drone and roll it, after few seconds virtual models returns to horizontal position in betaflight...

Please help to figure this out. Tons of information and my brain is boiling))

as it flew fine at first, check for an simple hardware issue first: is all mounted properly? nothing loosen? frame still stiff? any vibrating part?
capacitator still attached?

No, no first flight at all) this issue is from the moment I put all settings in betaflight.

FC mounted tight. Frame looks stiff enough. No vibrating parts.

Capacitor attached.

does a screw touch the windings?
do you run default pids?

nope. All good with the screws and pids

double check the following;

-rotor spin direction (in motortab without props) does it match the picture?
-motor order
-board direction, in betaflight configurator is an animated model, move your quad and compare to the simulation

Done.

All ok with motor position and rotation direction. Also controller directions are ok(

Take the top plate off and show how you have mounted the FC?

Did you orient the FC different to the regular direction? I see you have a 180 deg board alignment along the yaw axis in the configuration.

Yep, I put stack upside down and during setting up the Betaflight put this correction.

I am still trying to orient the FC the way you have mounted it from your photos but basically I think your Board and Sensor alignment is not correctly setup.

I can see you have a yaw 180 rotation but I will expect a 180 around roll or pitch depending on how you flipped the FC when you mounted it.

Another question is is that shield conductive, I hope it is not shorting any pads.

that shield has some pads, maybe there is some coating on the shielding material... bit it should be mounted fliped, the pads on the upperside.
the mamba shielding is thought to mount between esc and fc, not on top of the fc.

i missed motor spin direction next to rotor spin direction, it could be worse to check it wither

Solved! I just removed the screen and reassemble the stack. I think the problem was in screen or the nuts. I used few metal nuts to fix the stack!

Here the photos of stack before reassembling

Thank you all for the help!

i wont tease you Undecided but for future builds you can improve your soldering, maybe just by use better gear or heat adjustements :-)
here is a great thread about the topic:
