Not sure whether V3.5 Rc1 release covers the AUAV-X2.1.
Loaded Copter V3.5 Rc1 onto my AUAV-X2.1 flight controller via Mission Planner. Noticed in the HUD, pitch appeared as roll and vice versa. Changed AHRS-Orientation to '2' yaw 90 degrees. HUD then appeared correct. The flight controller has been installed in standard orientation.Problems encountered calibrating compass. Disabled internal compass and used the Drotek gps XL compass and did the compass dance. I did try to use the 'Onboard Mag Calibration' but couldn't get it to work (probably lack of knowledge on my part). Offsets are high x -276, y -326 z -54. Although I clicked on 'Externally mounted' I'm not sure whether the Drotek or internal compass is being used. I left orientation as 'none' for the external compass. The arrow mark on the Drotek gps/compass points forward.
After setting everything up including 'Motor emergency stop' on channel 8 I took my quad to the open fields to test.
Obtained around 18 Sats and HDOP around 0.6.Flew quite nicely in Stabilize and AltHold.
I have Loiter setup with Super Simple. In this mode pulling back on the right stick made the quad go forward away from me and pushing the right stick forward brought the quad towards me. Left and right roll were also reversed. Not sure whether this has anything to do with me setting the 'AHRS-Orientation' to '2'Tried Roll autotune and it worked well - PIDs updated. Also successfully ran a Pitch autotune.
What did surprise me was that after running Log Analyser the 'Max mag field length' was 571.75. I've never had it this low for the same area before on my other quad.
Any help would be much appreciated.
