First KK Tricopter Build - Question????

Does KK keep resisting and will keep the motor spinning to keep itself leveled? because mine stops after a few seconds eventhough that side is still tilted? I thought it will try to keep the motor running on that side until it is leveled???

I'm using KK v6, WMP Clone (invensense) gyro.
Please Help.

All.... this tri has been flying sinc.e.. IWCobur explained it straight forward...

I recently built a multiwii controller, which have the auto-level i'm looking for in this video. Thanks.

dude... take the props off... then run the throttle at 1/2 to 3/4... and do what your doing in the vid.. lol..

cant test it like that with no throttle.

@CNChobbycutting , Dude, Its for demonstration purposes!!!! how can I show its moving without any props! besides, it is not spininnig that fast.

As they are gyro's they will resit the rate or change, not the long term change, so they will attempt to correct any tilt until they see the rate of tilt fall. You need accerleromters to keep it level.

@IWCoburg, what accelerometers would you recommend? Thanks!

@h2oreactor I had the same question... too bad the kk boards dont have auto leveling, thanks for posting the video

Ok to all confused.. he doesnt have the motors contantly running.. if they were in fact constantly running.. just that short burst levels the props. To test this in the yourliving room.. take all the props off that is unless your into self suicide and slicing a wrist.

without motors running and what hes doing right now.. the board is actually stating this craft should be on the ground.. its not running.. so why keep props turning. basically his tri is running in proper order and nothings wrong

I meant not for you to show on youtube.. i meant.. take them off. and wide that pup out 3/4 throttle and you'll see just a touch of extra from the gyros makes it level out.

I meant for your safety.

Anyhow i know its been a while.. but im sure theirs others with your same question.

@h2oreactor The simple one to add to your build is the FY-20A, as that will just site between your reciever and the kk controller. Worked for me anyway :).
