    Thanks for this. I'm an experienced ardupilot user and still learned some things about flight modes I haven't used before but will now look into more. Some of them have probably been added since I last read the documentation in detail.

    Fantastic video, Lee! Thanks a bunch for the update! 😃
    But, you know... I've been thinking... It could be fun to build a rover with a cheap rc crawler as base. Like a WPL or perhaps something bigger. 🤔
    Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
    And happy new year!

    Stabilize
    Acro
    Manual
    Cruise
    Auto
    RTL
    Acro is my favorite after cruise:)

    Takeoff for plane is immensely useful for getting the bird up and circling while you find a seat and get the goggles on. I use it for every flight.

    @StevePotter Před rokem +1

    Thanks, Lee! That is very helpful. Especially your personal experience, preferences and comments. Even finding these pages in the Arduplane docs is not easy. (Search for "flight modes" and you get about a million hits, most of which are on the Complete Parameter List page, not very helpful.) So thanks for the links.

  • @bomberaustychunksbruv4119

    For a beginner, remember you only use what you want to use, you may only have Man,Stab, RTH. But thats the great thing its totally customiseable. It can be simple or complex as you need.

  • @Clickmaster5k
    @Clickmaster5k Před rokem

    I find ACRO is most useful for cruising actually. Once I'm some place I want to do tight technical maneuvering I usually switch to a stabilized/angle mode. I'm not a great stunt pilot.

  • @davidlee8464

    Very helpful - thanks!!! For Plane, how important is PID tuning using Autotune? Vital, or are the stock PIDs pretty close for most planes?

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  Před rokem

      See my video on it. I always do a tune.. Happy flying

    • @richardamiss7000
      @richardamiss7000 Před rokem

      Ardupilot stock tune is way better than iNav IMO, but there's a tendency for it to be sluggish (slow response). Autotune will get it really dialed in to fly stable and with authority.

  • @user-el5vj7no8i
    @user-el5vj7no8i Před 11 měsíci

    Thanks for the great explanation. I am using ardupilot with a fixed wing aircraft. And I have the problem that after the radio connection is interrupted, the mode is not switched back from RTL mode to the previously set mode when there is reception again. What can be the reason for this? Only when I then (with reception) manually change the mode, the FC recognizes the change and sets the default mode.

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  Před 11 měsíci +1

      That is how it's set to work.. see ardupilot.org/copter/docs/radio-failsafe.html
      "Test #4 : retaking control after the failsafe has cleared continuing on from test #3, turn your transmitter back on while the flight mode is still in RTL or LAND and armed, change the flight mode switch to another position and then back to stabilize mode. Ensure that the flight mode displayed on the Failsafe page is updating appropriately."

    hey when the aircraft is in our hand and in takeoff mode, the motor runs. however, when switching to other modes, the motor stops. When we try to start directly in loiter mode or other modes, the motor doesn’t run at all. sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn’t. do you have any idea

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  Před 18 dny

      You can't arm in some modes... I'd start in FBWA... See my builds and the docs for details.
