Maiden flight NAZA drift and crashed!

Hi
This is my first hexacopter and today was maiden flight that ended bad :black_eyed:, (the time it was in the air was lovely)
Setup: DJI NAZA, ESC F30 SimonK, Tiger Motors, 12x6 props and 4s 5000 lipo.

After many hours of work to get everyting togheter I finaly took it out for a ride in a smal place with a slope!:upset:
I was flying in atti mode, I also tried failsafe and it work very good except the motors didnt stop when landed, I suppos that is how it should be.

I had two problems when it was in the air.
1. Drift
It started to drift directly! This must be my fault because I started calibration in a tilted/slope position?
Is this somthing that I can change under flight, I read something about Trim?

2. Fast reaction
When moving stick left or right I got a very strong reaction (hexa started to tilt)
Is there something I can do to get it to react much smoother?

All of this lead to the crash
- Calibration in slope, made it drift very fast!

It ended with one broken arm and some broken propellars, (I have to order new carbon tubes):shame:
How thick need carbon tubes to be, (the tubes I have today is outer 21 mm inner 18-19 mm)
Is there different types of carbon tubes, is some more suiteble for for multicopter?


Thanks

sounds like you were in manual mode or like said above, not enough gains. I've never had good luck with just setting atti and taking off. both of mine acta ll weird and disconnected feeling. i spool it up in manual, then flip to atti at speed or right when it leaves the ground. major drift could be a bad vibration. usually prop related
 

Gain was 100, it was hard to see if it was in the same altitude, because it drifted so fast and . I will try to change my gains when I receive spareparts. I also ordered a GPS unit which can help me to get a more stable flight. As I understand gain settings is only about how fast the hexacopter will react and if I lower it down it will just react slower.
 

The props were balanced and new, I was only flying for a couple of minutes. If it happens again I show you av video of my problem. Hopfully the GPS unit can help me toghter with correct calibration.
