Elevator and ailerons are terms for fixed wings aircaft, nick and roll are mostly used for rotorcrafts.

Why do you need calculate lift angle? Your copter does not fly that way, if you elevate copters nose you will fly backwards, unless you fly with high speed.

Hi T,
The lift angle is the angle the REMOTE should travel to get from 0,0,0, to 7.8 forward and 3 higher. This is nothing to do with the angle of the REMOTE. The REMOTE will tilt front down to go forward as usual, and speed the props up to go upward, so as the get to the end of the orange 'H'.

Do you understand, I can explain better.

Yes, i understand the copters motions principles but i do not see need for calculating lift angle value because it will be natural result of flying toward given endpoints with calculated speeds.

Hi T,
Is it true that: As long as the REMOTE knows the ALT and Distance plus the Angle to fly in, then the natural result will be arrived at?
If so then now I understand.

While practicing Trig, I'm always trying to figure out how this will work.
My latest thought is: There won't be much distance between the REMOTE and the new location. I now imagine that as the Joysticks pull the location around the REMOTE will be not far behind it. 'say' a few centimetres for small movements, and for larger movments, as the distance is stretched, then the REMOTE speeds up.

As all of the compass modules need calibration, I'm doing that at the moment. Quite a process!
