Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Calibrating PFD to match aircraft attitude

[Felix Ruess]

Hi,

don't fly until this is correct!
First you need to set up your IR sensors to get attitude estimates
with the right direction, see
http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Airframe_Configuration#Infrared
Look at IR1_SIGN, etc.
Then make sure your control surfaces move correct in Manual first,
then AUTO1: http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Tuning#Directions

Cheers, Felix
