Here we're testing the VTOL project again, hopefully if I change the motor and get the other Gyro to work it will lift off!

  • I don't know why that gyro was twitching, maybe it is broken? But I did notice that you have both gyros pointing downwards. This won't work. The gyro looks like the older Esky rate gyro and if so then both those gyros will be responding to yaw movements. I am assuming you wanted them to keep the "plane" level in which case you need to turn them onto their sides and have one pointing toward the front of the plane and the other pointing to the side. Hope you get the gyro fixed.

  • Thanks for your Help! I'll try that out, maybe thats the problem!

  • IT COULD BE LIKE A RC CAR!!!!!!

  • Ibelive it has something to do with the trim settings on your radio, someone mentioned they had the same problem and ajusted the trim and that fixed it.

  • if you draw an imaginary line through the centre of the gyro from the centre of the blue sticker out the opposite side, that is the axis that is being detected, that line has to be pointing along the axis, say it was for roll, the imaginary line would have to be pointing forwards to backwards and with pitch it would need to be pointing left to right, also make sure the reverse switch is set correctly

  • Can't wait to see it flying with the gyro fixed! Keep up the good work.

  • Great stuff! :D

    Happy to help and I am looking forward to seeing a video of it sometime.

  • Coolllll

    sub me !

  • My gyro does that too. I think it's a bad connection between the two wires.
