Hello! Yesterday I finished assembling my M480 with SuperX controller and now every time I takeoff, regardless of flight mode my quad will start a slow left rotation while holding position. I calibrated ESC's, radio calibration also accomplished, as well as the initial setup and all Super X...

Andre good luck with your setup, I wish that everything goes well for you!! I just got mine put back together and in the first test flight my quad although perfectly stable in the air, will constantly rotate to the left. If I try to counteract with right full rudder, it will make no difference...

Noid1037, did you ever figure out what was causing the un-commanded rotation on your aircraft? Having same problem.

Yes counterclockwise.

If you compare the Align manual to the SuperX you will notice that what Align labels as M2 and M4 are not the same motors for the Super X. Make sure you get this right and connect the motor positions to the I/O unit following Super X manual. Otherwise you will crash on takeoff

Not sure how to setup a Spectrum radio, I do know that the throttle channel is not the same as Futaba, I use a Futaba 14SG

Andre I'm getting power from here (see picture), even though you have no available plugs, you could just solder a jumper from the two main wires coming from the PCU to the power distro connector. It won't hurt anything. Also if you haven't done it yet, you may want to replace all those Align a...

Andre for radio settings, I setup my radio following this video: Also, Andre keep in mind that the motor positions between APS-M and the SuperX change, I found out the expensive way, I assume the order of the motors where the same, and crashed on takeoff, destroying a brand new set of T-Motor...

Andre since bi the SuperX and the Tarrot controller accept 6S voltage, I connected both to the power distribution harness I made. Yes I'm using the SBus for my receiver, on the pictures I posted you can see which SBus I'm using (bottom SBus plug on receiver).

Here are some pics:

Andre since the Tarrot LG controller accepts 22.2volts, I simply connected ut straight to the same plug where the motor's pos & neg wires connect in the front of the quad. I made my own power distribution wire strip with like 5 jst power plugs and connected the power strip where the motors...

Update: finally resolved my OSD/no video problem, it was a bad OSD module, got a replacement module from cb helicopter.com, problem solved.

Andre I'm sorry it took this long to reply back! Yes I'm still using the Align PCU, I do not have a gimbal yet since I'm still working on setting up my M480 the way i wanted. I do have working retracts, but with a Tarot gear controller. The Tarot controller accepts 6S voltage without the need...

Update: Guys my SuperX is fixed!! The left drift was caused for bad parameters loaded on the IMU. According to XAircraft support, the 'STATUS' file inside the CFG folder had some missing flight parameters. After installing a corrected 'STATUS' file they emailed me, my quad flies like a dream!!!

No luck at all! Yes they are. My video xmitter is the ImmersionRC 600mw, I believe ntsc is default setting on it.

Ok, so now my OSD flight data overlay shows on my monitor, but no video from camera, so far this is what I've done to troubleshoot this issue: 1. camera cap off 2. tested camera by connecting it directly to my video transmitter on board the quad, I got clear video feed to the monitor. 3...

Update: today I had a chance to really test my updated SuperX and all I have to say is WOW, I flew with a 5-10mph wind and this thing held position like no other FC I've ever seen. The artificial horizon line is level now. So far so good. Next I need to figure out why my OSD will not feed video...

New 'status file' has been installed, my artificial horizon line is level now and the left hand drift appears to be gone. Couldn't really test everything the way I wanted because of high winds today (23 mph +). Anyway here is a link for the data log for a quick five minute hover flight on GPS...
