Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Quadrotor with Lia 1.1 - a sudden loss control authori

[Michal Podhradsky]

Hi Loïc,

I am attaching the logs:
1) AP mode and Vertical mode vs. thrust command (scaled to fit). It is not obvious for the first sight, but after going from Z_HOLD(8) to ATT(3) our RC pilot was pulling throttle even up to 100% trying to keep the plane in the air, but it is not reflected in the plot until the last moment - right before the landing (t=239s)

2)  Vertical loop - est_z, est_zd, est_zdd and AP mode. You can see the quad was climbing rapidly during Z_HOLD, and then started to descend after switching to ATT.

Regards
Michal

Hi,

I never experienced such issue. I don't use adaptative estimator for thrust, but NOMINAL_THROTTLE instead (see Paparazzi vertical loops wiki page).  From my experience, it is sometime difficult to switch from RC_CLIMB mode to DIRECT mode for the pilot, because of the sudden change of throttle required to hover.

Maybe could you post your logs?

Regards

Loïc
