Quadcopter roll-yaw mixing
#1
As above, i wish to try this configuration: when i roll in a direction a small amount of yaw is added so the turns should be smoother.
Just a test, but:

i have a Flysky radio, AETR channels map.
Assuming that:

Ailerons= Roll= Ch1
Elevator= Pirch= Ch2
Throttle= Throttle= Ch3
Rudder= Yaw= Ch4

... i tried mix Ch1 Roll (master) and Ch4 Yaw (slave), offset 50%, neg and pos 25%.

The drone turns left during the takeoff.
The channels order is wrong or what?

you can do this very easy in betaflight, the feature calls "angle mix"
i tried it and failed very bad xD as i am still trained to do that work by myself xD i wouldnt suggest it.

i'm currently using INAV, i think the setting are quite close.
Nothing like Angle Mix, here, unfortunately.

I wish to have something like this...:

It could be done with a mix, but I would not recommend it.

Adding Yaw to a roll is just a part of learning to fly a quad due to the difference in camera angle to the axis of the quad itself. If you use the software as a kind of 'training-wheels' then you will never learn to manually control the quad. You would then have to add this mix on all quads you fly in the future.

Practicing using yaw + roll together to keep your camera centered while rolling is just a part of flying a quad, and after a little while it just becomes muscle-memory. I don't even think about it, my fingers just do it naturally to keep the camera facing straight forward while the quad rolls.

Personally I am against all of the software aids. No expo, no modes, no mixes. I feel like if you get used to using an aid, it means you will have a harder time in future trying to 'un-learn' it. Or alternatively you are stuck only flying quads with your aids turned on, which means no flying other people's quads and having to do it on all future quads you build.


I'm not trying to turn you off of doing it, just giving my opinion.

As far as HOW to do it, I'm afraid I am useless here as I've never done it.
