Hello All
I am currently trying to flyusing the x configuration with the inbuilt xcopter v2.9 on my kk v5.5 control board. We are using flysky FS CT-6B Transmitter with mode 2 configuration. On my first trial it flipped during liftoff and all my props broke :'(. for the second trial instead of using props we used gum tape to check the relative speeds of the motors. I found out that the gyro compensation is wrong and it is getting reversed in certain cases.
I made the following observation :-

1. motors are working fine wen moved manually with transmitter sticks.

2. For auto stabilization the set of counter clockwise motors(diagonally opposite). I.e 1 & 3 are compensating in the opposite direction causing it to flip and the other 2 motors are working perfectly fine for both pitch and roll axes.

3. Yaw compensation was perfectly fine.

4. Upon reversing only channel 1 (roll gyro), motors 1 &3 (clockwise diag opp) are performing correctly for pitch compensation, but 2 & 4 give reverse compensation. The result is vice versa for roll compensation.

5. Upon reversing only channel 2 (pitch gyro), motors 2 &4 are performing correctly for pitch compensation, but 1 & 3 give reverse compensation. The result is vice versa for roll compensation.

6. When both gyros are reversed, condition described in point 2 is reversed.

I have been at it for almost ten days now and this is the first time i m trying to fly a quad. I have gone through a lot of videos and tutorials but couldnt figure it out. I am stuck completely now.  Do u have any suggestions? :banghead: :banghead:

Check the prop direction ! CW and CCW ! (Usually mistakes are made by putting wrong prop in a wrong direction)
and check the correction without prop! you can identify by change in the speed of the motor!
To increase thrust you need more  money! But to reduce weight you  need nothing!

@praveen props direction is definitely correct. Besides for this case, I am not mounting props. The problem is probably with gyros, as flight is getting destabilized when disturbed, as indicated in the post

Another basic query: Does xcopter v2.9 necessarily mean it is x configured? does this firmware come with a default + or x?

@Praveen Can you please give me a link to a good firmware for my board. I dont think the current one Xcopterv2.9 is working for me.

Thank You.

Hah problem solved after i interchanged two motor connections from their respective Escs'. now it is taking off flying steadily but i need to do some fine tuning to get it to hover without movement. Thank you for helping me. :D

Great ! :thumbsup:
just fine tune with gyro's you will be fine! reduce vibration ,than it will fly stable!
