What Happenned

  • Analyzed the initial tune, determined it was too aggressive

    • did not feel very stable in flight

  • Checked notch filter frequencies

    • took us a bit to setup parameters correctly

    • compared to in-flight FFT

    • Settled on using in-flight FFT as best outcome

  • Reset tune to default using initial tune config

  • Ran autotune again on all axes with aggressiveness of 0.07 (default is 0.1, range 0.05 to 0.1)

  • Evaluated new tune, new tune is felt less aggressive.

    • Needs more testing and log analysis

Log Analysis

  • Stability

    • How stable was the drone with the new tune?

  • Vibration

  • Packet Loss on Mavlink RC

    • Did the
