Avata 3.5 Axis - Suicidal Drone!

[Kylst18]

Hi everyone.

My Avata has the 3.5 Axis kit installed.

It flys perfectly in normal and sport, but the second manual mode is initiated, it turns suicidal and smashing its self towards the ground in a spin!

I am competent in manual flying
I have checked and calibrated IMU and sticks
I have checked rates
I have check prop installation and direction is correct
I have checked motor direction is correct

What could it be?!? It makes no sense to me that it flys in N & S but Not manual.

Video attached showing the hover in N then activation of manual.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

How does it behave if you try to take off directly in manual mode?

Likely the hardcoded gains are simply mismatched to the new powertrain. Seen many people having problems with this mod, would just not recommend it.

Much the same. Just goes straight into a flip.
