Can't use "Axis Fix" for twist (RotZ)

Postby fus_roh_potato » Tue Sep 12, 2023 23:53

I am trying to make a basic helicopter style trimmer for pitch, roll, and yaw using a Gladiator Evo. I was able to get it to work for pitch and roll, but yaw is spazzing out and I don't know why.

What happens when I press the button is, it locks the x and y into a new position, but the RotZ axis jumps to center and then instantly back to where it was. I've tried applying axis fix to all 8 axis just in case I misunderstand axis ID numbers.

I tried the latest version. Sorry if this solution has been posted. I searched.

Maybe everything is much simpler? Do not use firmware lower than recommended for this configurator. Either update the firmware or roll back to an earlier version of the configurator.

@Ron61
I tried the latest firmware, it works only for X and Y. Not sure if it's a bug or intended, but I report it to Alex.

I agree, there is a bug. But all the same, I advise you to adhere to the simple rule of matching the firmware and the configurator version to eliminate possible errors.
UPD: This bug has been fixed in the latest firmware 2_16_6. Take it here.

Thanks for the update!

A little confused on this. I have an NXT EVO. there are a lot of files in those folders but none of them match my hardware. How do I get the right file and match it with the right app?

On a side note, is it possible at all to have buttons on one stick apply functions like axis fix and trim on a different stick?
