What is RC rate and super rate?

What is RC rate and super rate?

Super Rate is a relatively new parameter that was introduced by BetaFlight. Super Rate is essentially a combination of RC Rate and Expo, increasing Super Rate values vastly quickens rotation speed in the far reaches of the stick range. At the same time, sensitivity reduces around centre stick.

What is RC rate?

RC rate changes the sensitivity of your sticks. High rates makes your quad rotate more with less stick deflection. High rate will make your quad more responsive but at the same time, twitchier. Small movement on the stick would produce big movement in the quad.

What is EmuFlight?

EmuFlight is flight controller software (firmware) used to fly multi-rotor craft. This fork differs from Baseflight, Cleanflight and Betaflight in that it focuses on flight performance, innovative filtering, and leading-edge features.

What does PID mean in drones?

proportional–integral–derivative
PID controller are often used for controlling a drone. This is a program in the drone, which evaluates the sensor data and drives the motors accordingly via motor controller. PID stands for: proportional–integral–derivative and will be explained later.

What is drone PID tuning?

PID Tuning is like Playing Golf 🙂 Sensors on an FPV drone, i.e. the gyro, takes measurements of what is going on – how fast the drone is rotating. Setpoint is the desired state of the system – i.e. how fast the drone should be rotating. Error is basically the difference between measurement and setpoint.

What is RC dual rate?

“Dual Rates” refer to altering the rate of servo travel for a control surface on R/C aircraft (e.g. Ailerons, Elevator, and sometimes Rudder). Dual Rates consist of Low Rates and High Rates. Dual Rates are typically controlled by a toggle switch on an R/C transmitter.

What does exponential mean RC?

Exponential rate is where the servo movement is not directly proportional to the amount of control stick movement on your transmitter. Over the first half on the stick travel, the servo moves less than the stick. This makes control response milder and smoothes out level flight and normal flight maneuvers.

What is TPA FPV?

TPA stands for: Throttle PID Attenuation in Betaflight and Cleanflight. TPA basically allows an aggressively tuned multi-rotor (one that feels very locked in) to reduce its PID gains when throttle is applied beyond the TPA threshold/breakpoint in order to eliminate fast oscillations – What a mouthful!!
