There is a good bit to learn and lots of settings. There
is a script you can load on the controller to put the
drone in "wiggle mode" which is fun to watch. You get
the drone to hover and flick a switch and it sure does
wiggle. You land and then examine the graphs and adjust
the parameters to smooth things out. Sounds easy, well
for some I guess, me I'll be slipping all over the
learning curve...<br>
<br>
I think the PIDtoolbox is now part of the Betaflight
configurator. BTW it does not have any flux capacitors in
it.<br>
