Further setup and tuning for a high-speed drone

Configuration: The minimal configuration is to use only a gyro and accelerometer sensor. Considering the electromagnetic interference, disable the magnetometer . Make sure to balance the propellers . [2] Make sure that the center of gravity is as close as possible to the center of thrust . Choose Generic 250 Racer airframe in QGC. Switch the estimator to local_position_estimator if no external position available. (ex: GPS, camera, etc.) Make sure to calibrate the ESCs. Control latency: Enable SYS_FMU_TASK to reduce latency. Disable SYS_USE_IO and attach the motors to the AUX pins instead. Enable One-Shot PWM output signal to reduce latency ( PWM_RATE =0) Filter tuning: Tune the low-pass filter on the gyro sensor data: IMU_GYRO_CUTOFF . Tune the low-pass filter on the D-term: MC_DTERM_CUTOFF . Step1: Active high-rate logging profile ( SDLOG_PROFILE parameter) Step2: T une the gyro filter IMU_GYRO_CUTOFF ...
