Roll vs Yaw
Whenever I yaw the drone rolls. I have calibrated and the drone performs as expected. However, in the game, the drone rolls every time I yaw.

Is it inverted?

Also, do do you mean Roll is replaced by Yaw (or vice versa) or do you man that when you roll, you also get some yaw? Depending on your camera angle, it is normal for roll and yaw to be coupled to some degree with a camera at 90 degrees completely swapping roll for yaw.

That's normal, to a degree.

When you make a flat Yaw turn, it's normal to have a few degrees of Negative Roll. So if you yaw left, it's normal to have the right wing drop slightly. You'll get that in any aircraft, be it a helicopter, plane or quad.

Try banking into turns. That is to say, dropping the "inside" rotors and raising the "outside" rotors. If you're pulling a left, roll a few degrees left as well as applying yaw. This directs some of your Thrust outwards, prevents adverse roll and pulls you tight to the apex.

When I yaw left, I get some roll rightl.
