help! PID tuning~

[Sam (Yujia Zhai)]

Dear all,

This is the Aerial Robotics Team from the University of Southern California. We ask for your help as we cannot keep our quad-rotor stable in the air. We might add more sensor support, but we really hope the quad-rotor can fly pretty stable by itself (say, hover in one place for at least 30 secs). Tunning the PID constants is critical, but also a hard thing to do. What do you guys always to do reach a stable quadrotor flying? Any suggestiongs for tunning & testing?

We are busy preparing for the 2011 IARC (http://iarc.angel-strike.com/). Hopefully we can get our things done by July, and we may welcome you to our lab to take a look!

Thank you.

Sam:

Would be glad to help. I am leaving today to go out of town for a few days but will contact you next week and will see what we can do.

Hi sam,
have you got your quad hovering level yet?
If not, lemme know, I think I could help.

Regards,
Toby
