Hi all,

Currently I’m building Y3 type VTOL which tilt all props(left, right, tail) just after takeoff with Pixhawk & PX4.  
When I try to find proper airframe in QGC, I couldn’t.  
Any one can help for my issue?  
Should I add new code in px4?

Thank you for your advice, but this frame is for Y6(6 props) and does not support tail tilt.

In that case you would have to create a custom mixer.

There is a ‘E-flite convergence’ frame defined in the drop down menu of that category, which might be what you looking for.

Edit: i did not notice your requirement on all-tilt-rotor. So in that case you need custom mixer as @sanderux suggested.
