ATTITUDE TUNING
Attitude tuning adjusts how ALTA 8 responds to control inputs and disturbances.
Attitude directly controls responsiveness and changes ALTA 8’s fundamental flying
behaviors. Attitude must be tuned acceptably before tuning height or position
parameters.
When tuning attitude, the primary parameter to change is Stiffness followed by
Strength.
STIFFNESS
Stiffness is adjusted for pitch and roll simultaneously, and yaw independently. It
changes how stable ALTA 8 is in these axes and is the primary variable to adjust
when tuning. When tuning Stiffness first, or making large stiffness changes, Hold
Strength should be set to a low, non-zero value.
Higher Stiffness values give more responsive control. Values that are too high can
cause instability or oscillation.
WARNING
Excessively high stiffness values can cause ALTA 8 to become
unstable and difficult or even impossible to control.
Lower Stiffness values give less responsive control. Values that
are too low can cause a vague or disconnected control response.
HOLD STRENGTH
Hold Strength controls how much ALTA 8 will try to maintain a pitch/roll
angle command, or a yaw heading command. It is adjusted for pitch and roll
simultaneously, and yaw independently. A higher Hold Strength setting will give a
faster control response and a more responsive feel. However, values that are too
high can cause ALTA 8 to overshoot pitch or roll commands, or even cause instability.
WARNING
Excessively high strength values case cause ALTA 8 to become
unstable and difficult or even impossible to control.
Typically, this setting will not need to be changed from
the default value, and only then in small increments.
