Fixed-wing Vehicle Configuration

Fixed-wing configuration and calibration follows the same high level steps as other frames: selection of firmware, configuration of the frame including actuator/motor geometry and output mappings, sensor configuration and calibration, configuration of safety and other features, and finally tuning.

::: info This topic is the recommended entry point when performing first-time configuration and calibration of a new fixed-wing frame. :::

The main steps are:

• Standard Configuration

• Autotune - PID Tuning

  ::: info Autotune simplifies the manual process described in: Fixed-wing Rate/Attitude Controller Tuning Guide. :::

• Fixed-wing Altitude/Position Controller Tuning Guide

• Fixed-wing Trimming Guide

• Fixed-Wing Airspeed Scale Handling
