    Finally I have a stable mini tri based on the original RCE integrated naze32 board with 4-wire tail servo (tail tune worked). Starting to gain some serious racing experience. I’m running Triflight 0.5 Beta 2, not wanting to fixing something thats not broken by upgrading to the latest Triflight.

    My question: I am running Luxfloat PID controller. Is this the best choice for this FC?

    Thanks for all the work put in by David, Lauka et al to create such enjoyable toys!

    I found that Triflight 0.5 final release massively improved the flying quality of my mini tricopter specifically. But then again, my mini wasn’t flying well *at all* before then, so like you said, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Same goes for the PID controller. The default now is either Luxfloat or MWRewrite (I believe it’s the latter, but I could be wrong). Again, if your tricopter is flying nicely for you, don’t go chasing what everyone else is doing and risk turning a nice flying tricopter into a wreck, unless you have a reason to.

    Thanks mate, we are of similar opinion. I will concentrate on improving my flying skills and do minor tweaks rather than go for FW upgrade. When I get more proficient I may start to exhaust the improvement options (via tuning) in 0.5 beta 2 at which point I may upgrade. By then I may no longer be able to resist buying V4 and/or the bay Tri.

    Hey guys,
    On a similar note since I don’t want to create a separate topic for such a small question:
    The stock PID values that David gives for the stock mini-tricopter – I assume that those are perfect for flying without a GoPro. Have you made any changes to PIDs when flying with the extra weight of the Gopro (+ its case)?
