I've another question about this fligh mode....roll yaw and pitch are  functioning during altitude hold or vario?

Sure, it's better if the pilot keep control over his vehicle.

Ok. Absolute yes.

Concerning calibration in gcs for this particular flight mode, I read that is necessary have done temperature calibration. It is true?
I don't it!
Another, there are some parameters in GCS altitude hold page control coefficient that require some adjustments?
thank you for your patience.

Altitudehold can work without any calibration. The thermal calibration, if done correctly can improve barometer drift due to temperature.

Yes, can need some adjustments because weight over thrust can vary.

Altitude vario tested with success. I have modified the throttle curve, in the centre is flat. It's a good choice for these  flights modes?

I do the same (flatten throttle curve where I hover) to increase resolution in the middle it's easier for me that way to set stick to hover.

Hi guys
Today tested altitude hold flight mode. Negative result. I engage the mode but the quad not lock the altitude and thrust stick was always operative. Which is my error or errors?

I checked the baro sensor with scope in gcs and is ok.

Hi guys
Corcerning my problem on altitude hold, it's normal that with altitude hold engaged I can takeoff?

Nothing normal, AltitudeHold maintain altitude and Throttle has no effect.

Are you sure the flight mode switch works ?
You can move the switch and check the flight mode position in GCS: Input tab or PFD

You have right!
The switch not work properly. I have re-calibrated the transmitter switch.
I check and it's impossible perform a t/o with Altitude Hold engaged.
I'll test this with a flight.
