I-term windup — won't settle, holds an angle after a stick input
After a stick movement, the quad holds a tilted angle instead of returning cleanly to level.
💡 The idea: I-term has grown too large and isn't being reined in.
Try these in order
Make one change at a time and re-test — that's how you learn what your car likes.
-
1
Lower the iterm_windup limit / verify I-term Relax is active
Prevents excess I growth, especially on low-authority quads.
-
2
Lower I gain on the affected axis directly
Simplest direct fix.
