Whoop won't fly properly

[Mr_Stripes]

My 1s 75mm whoop will not take off properly. I just put in a new board. When I try to get it to take off it just yaws like crazy gets into the air and wobbles so badly that it falls out of the air. Anyone know what is going on? Thanks and happy new year!

Check motor direction and battery

Also check that the board is oriented correctly. If it is rotated, it will yaw like crazy too.

 

[Mr_Stripes]

I did check the motor direction but I will have another look at the board thx for the help.

Not a quad guy but did you set it up in Beta Flight?

 

[Corsair714]

This can be caused by improperly tuned pids and pid filters. Do you know how to properly setup a quad in betaflight?

 

[Corsair714]

I had a very similar problem with my quad and I just had to change some of the filters

 

[PsyBorg]

If its not board orientation as suggested it is more then likely filters that give that effect of all wobbly and continually rising. Also verify the proper .hex has been flashed and default all the settings. Then do a throttle calibration IF dshot is not used and see what that gets you.

Yeah I've done it before but the board was from the factory so I figured it would be okay. I have not flashed it tho...

 

[Corsair714]

sometimes the defaults just aren't right so if you know what you're doing try changing some of the filters

 

[Mr_Stripes]

I have not had to do any tuning yet. I will screenshot the pids and filters.

[Corsair714]

Are you on a old version of betaflight?

 

[Corsair714]

Most of my boards have sliders, just makes things a tad easier

 

[Corsair714]

oh wait nvm, sorry. just got confused for a second

 

[Mr_Stripes]

When I got the board got into betaflight changed a few things (like osd) and popped the board in. I didn't touch the tuning page.

 

[Mr_Stripes]

.hex

???

 

[PsyBorg]

???

The files used to flash the flight controllers are suffixed .hex. I assume that to mean they are written in hexadecimal code format. Like you have .EXE or .txt or .png at the end of other files. Same thing for what we use.

Make sure that your motor mapping and board orientation are correct. Run each motor independently, and make sure the right one moves for the channel selected, and in the right direction. Tip the board and make sure the artificial horizon moves in the correct direction. This does not sound like a PID/tuning thing. More like the FC doesn't have proper knowledge of which way to go, or the motors are not working the way it thinks they are mapped.
Close up pictures of your whoop would help us figure this out too.

I want to be like you cleaver with kwads and fly them. They are to expensive for me since i get no pocket money and no time for it
