Where to start. Crius aiop

[Vidal]

Hey guys
After giving up on the cruis v1.1 and using rhe kk2 board. Ive decided to give it another go.
Ive loads the megapirateNG, arduino and mission planner onto my computer. Have loaded it onto my crius board.
What are the steps I need to take now?
Can anyone give me a list of things I need to do to g r tbit working?

Hey
Im reading the guide from jumpy07.
Im trying to calibrate esc all at once.
I put throttle on full. Plug in battery. Unplug then replug to set board to calibrate mode. Drop throttle. It makes the beeping sound.
But when I test the throttle the motors only sin up at about 90% throttle.
Then when I turn it off and on again and arm it. The red ligjt stays solid but no throttle.

Any ideas what im doing wrong?

[firey1]

depending on your esc you should not drop throttle till you hear the tone for throttle calibration

[peter_a]

Also drop the throttle VERY FAST , not a move , but a flick from full to bottom as fast as possable.

Ill try that tonight. Thanks.

Have sort throttle out. Well almost. It now starts spinning at 10% 

Next problem.
When I plug it into mission planner and look at the compass display it shows that when I tilt the quad to the left it shows it going to the right. How can I change that? It works fine moving back and forward.

Also how do I level the quad?

And do I need to reverse and or the tx channels? ie elevator or ruddder?

Is the crius positioned the right way. Sounds like its facing backwards......

Pitch should be reversed when calibrating radio. Push forward should make the pitch bar go down. Rest are normal.

[peter_a]

It`s the horizon Indicator , so if you are in the plane`s cockpit , if you bank to the left you will see the horizon move to the right.

So all in all it`s o.k !!!!!

opps, just me been stupid. thanks

is there anything else i need to do before test flight

[Vidal]

is there stick scalling on this board like there is on the KK2 board?
If so how do i change them?

[Vidal]

well ive just test flown it.

Hovered it about 2 inches above the ground. it keeps wanting to drop to one side then quickly snaps back but over compensates making it want to flip the other way.

What P I and D setting do i need to change?

Cheers
