Gains and Setup for Hexacopter

Although it was a bit windier than I would like for a maiden flight, I couldn't resist and flew my Hex. Flew great.

I have a few questions, with the wind in GPS flight mode it rocked back and forth a little, not so much of an oscillation but more just fighting the wind. I've seen some NAZA's in the wind that appeared to be more stable, which gains and which way should I adjust them?

My Hex is:
25" MTM
~ 4Kg
Turnigy D3536/8 1000KV motors
RCTimer 30ESC's
Graupner 10" E-Props
5800mAh 4S batteries

The gains are currently set to:
Basic 135% Vertical 130%
Attitude 140%

How many people fly/use Coarse and Home Lock? I took off in manual, switched to attitude where it was quite stable and then GPS where I tried Coarse Lock. It felt a little weird but it was quite cool. I suck at flying head in and although I was a little apprehensive trying it I can certainly see how this might help with single pilot AP. Curious how others like this.

I also still need some help setting up my Futaba 10CG so that I can switch to failsafe.


Any suggestions would be appreciated.

AV8.. every multis seems to have its own characteristics. I would say increase basic.

If you RFTM you will find some basic staring point on page 40 Naza 2.4..
