PID, gosh...

[Alex Fraser]

PIDtoolbox has a YouTube site, I am viewing a video on that site which 
is at https://youtu.be/ehvQm8Rqrzk?si=XKyL3DGHzVwaT8hT
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...

I think the PIDtoolbox is now part of the Betaflight configurator.  BTW 
it does not have any flux capacitors in it.
