Drone takes off unstably #129

nathanheath2 commented 8 years ago

I just started using this library with my ar drone 1.0 and whenever I type takeoff() in the terminal the drone would take off but it would go everywhere and it wouldn't have a stabilized hover which I find really weird, what could be the problem ?

Before taking off, try doing a "flat trim" by running ftrim() and see if that makes a difference.

Oh I fixed this already , got it to work properly, all you had to do was reset the drone and it flies like normal again lol to anyone that has this problem
