Slow Yaw Rate

[erkq]

I'm new to the Solo, I just couldn't pass up the $299 BB deal since I like my Pixhawk ships so much. But I'm having trouble flying it in any "fun" mode. Acro is almost impossible because the yaw rate is so slow it's completely un-coordinated with the other much faster controls. I almost crashed because things were happening so much faster on the other axes. I can fly on "Manual", but it's not much fun... quick turns are out of the question.

Is there a way of adjusting this without getting Mission Planner hooked up? How do I even do that? Is there a USB plug somewhere? My Pixhawk ships have telemetry radios... I assume the Solo doesn't have that.

So... the simple version... how do I speed up the yaw rate by a lot! I want the controls to be harmonious.

Go to the settings, and move the yaw slider up to fast.

Really? I started a whole new thread with my first post ever to ask that stupid of a question? I swear I couldn't find it. Thanks for your answer and patience.

No... I haven't read the manual... I really should. I'm an experienced Pixhawk guy but this is a different animal. The setting is called "Camera Pan" and since buzzing around had nothing to do with the camera I didn't think that was it.

Yeah... the manual... thanks!

Remember, the Solo works great with Tower and Mission Planner!

Good deal. I intend to use this as a mapping backup bird for my Pixhawk machine. I hope the GoPro sized Micasense Sequoia will fit the gimbal. Normally I wouldn't bother with a gimbal for mapping, but we got lots of wind here.

Thanks for your help, guys!

Depends on which gimbal. If you are talking about the 3-axis, it likely won't due to the data port that sticks out inside of it made specifically for the Gopro 3+ Black/GoPro 4 series.
