No you always need to write a flight plan (maybe I will fix that in the future).

Always return home:
1. FLY_TO_REL(0, 0, 100)
2. GOTO (1)

But I prefer to fly a circle around the home position:
1. CIRCLE_REL(0, 0, 80, 80)
2. GOTO(1)

Don't forget to "write" and "burn" the flight plan.

"Cruising speed" is optional. It is needed for stabilization in case the GPS has bad readings during flight. It is the flight speed of your plane (50 km/h or so)

ok

thank you wery mutch

i have my secand fly ready .
when i switch to the navigation mode , the plane fly ever to tha same position but not to the flight plan
i have test this commands :
circel_REL
circel_ABS
Fly_to_ABS

but nafing from the 3 commads work , the plane fly allways to the same position .
the position were will the plane fly to is out of the airfield .

do you have any ideas ?
tomorrow i will fly again and i hope i have found until hin the error .
i hope you can help me .

but it works better as yesterday

[Tom]

Can you send me the datalog in XML?

[Koaxpilot]

mhmm .
yes i send you tomorrow the XML daten .
do you have a idear ?

[Koaxpilot]

hi tom
you have an email from me wife the xml

[Tom]

Thanks for the XML.

Personally I don't think anything is wrong. You programmed the module to fly a circle with a radius of about 100 meters. Of course your plane is small and you probably feel uncomfortable to make it fly further away (ask Florian about this, he had the same problem ).

Your average flying height is 20(!) meters. You need to fly at least at a height of 80 meters (this is 4 times as high). The furthest distance the plane flew from you is 100 meters.
Even though it's a flying wing, you need to fly it as if it was a big glider. When activating the autopilot mode, try to fly in a clockwise direction around the take-off position at a distance a lot further than it is now.

To make you feel more comfortable: Change the maximum roll angle to 40 degrees. Change the radius of you circle to CIRCLE_REL (0, 0, 60, 60) or something similar.

But even so: try to fly higher and make yourself feel comfortable with the plane being around 100 meters away from the take-off position.

Hi tom

but why can not I fly small circuits for example 30-40 meters ?
formulas show something with the rolling limit of 30 or why
wenn i make the roll limit bigger for exambel 40 than i can fly smaller circuits ?

I understand why he always wanted to fly so far away , but the airfield is not so big and then plane wery small I'm afraid if the autopilot not working properly .
but I do have to push me

[Tom]

Well maybe a circle radius of 50 meters is possible if you fly your plane not too fast.

Try to fly a lot higher, and set your circle radius to 80 meters. Try to keep calm, but of course don't let your plane fly out of sight

Good luck on your next flight!

i have a last question
yesterday i have test it wife 20m but the plane is not circel wife the radius 20m but wife 100m . why ?
is the minimum limit 50m ?
or do i dan the roll limit bigger for a smaler circle
