## Audience
|

|
|
|
This parameter is intended for LOS flyers who use the HEADFREE feature of betaflight.
|
|
|
|
It reduces the usage of on sight realignment HEADADJ
|
|
|
|
from 3-6 times to 0-1 during a flight.

## Warnings

|
|
|
Users with exotic board alignment configurations !!! this feature may not work as intended for your purpose !!!
|
|
|
|
The gyro drift depends on many factors, so the results of manual calibration have a big variance
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Factors:
|
|
|
|
* gyro (mpu6000 ICM260X ...)
|
|
|
|
* sampling rate
|
|
|
|
* temperature
|
|
|
|
* LiPo (3S ... 5S)
|
|
|
|
* Flight style
|
|
|
|
* Flight time
|
|
|
|
* and many more ...

## Setup
|
2018-01-25 23:31:03 -08:00
|
|
|
The basic setup can be done on the bench without LiPo, USB powered
|
|
|
|
power on, do not move the quad for 10 minutes
|
|
|
|
on CW drift 70° --> gyro_offset_yaw = 70
|
|
|
|
on CCW drift 70° --> gyro_offset_yaw = -70
|
|
|
|
This is only a coarse adjustment.

|
|
|
Fine tuning requires real flights and some fingertip.
|
|
|
|
Basically you have to measure the drift at the end of the flight,
|
|
|
|
and modify the parameter accordingly.
