I could easily be a sensor in the multiwii, I was just trying to find anything simple first hahaha. If you could do a gyro test that nice.

Just by looking I can tell you have your props on correct (CW & CCW), but it really acts like the motors may be switched, also have you checked that the motors are spinning the correct direction? If not swap any two of the three wires going from the motors to the ESCs. After seeing the...

Higher amperage over resistance raises lowers voltage lost. makes sense.

Hahaha must have had only a few, also this is mode 1, mode 2 is common, but you can switch the two joysticks and change it over with no problem.

Hahaha, I found out testing it with a continuity meter, it is surprisingly conductive, I'd never have thought hahaha.

Resistance may have a little involvement. Some batteries are made in parallel. You should not mix different types of batteries, but you can probably raise the voltage a little on your charger to compensate and it would not hurt.

The battery is trash or should only be used for very low discharge applications. This is why chargers won't charge lipos that get too low. You can set your charger on NiMh or Li-ion until you bring the battery back up to 10 then switch back over to LiPo.

Haahahaha, that the a common bane/joy to us all

I think the top middle one has a small technical problem hahaha.

Hahaha, sounds good. Also after over discharging your battery the cells may not hold a balance, so be sure to check it regularly for a few cycles and balance it when charging.

Yeah, I agree with this also. If you extend your arms to keep the props from over lapping it may actually make the problem worse. Sounds like you just need a stronger way to mount the arms.

Ahhh, sounds like you need a cast iron plate, or a manhole cover maybe? hahaha. Maybe It is not an uncommon problem for a frame to flex, what if you fixed a channel to act as a spar under the arms?

Check that the motors are all plugged in the right orientation, and check gains. Can you provide a video?

Vibrations? Mount what you can with jellos, balance the motor hums and props, add some vibration dampening to the motor mounts, something like a gel or foam in between the plates. It was a problem I experienced using CF props and aluminium frame hahaha.

Hahaha, welcome to the forum. I think you will find that there is always more to be learned, and open communities are full of information.

I am thinking something like a DJI Phantom 1 or 2. You can get some good deals on them used. Generally 300 meters is the expected range. @holtneil

Being as you want to fly FPV I'd suggest a quadcopter as helicopters are fairly difficult to fly any way but LOS. So you are looking for something RTF (ready to fly)?

It most likely in your receiver or antenna, also a camera with WDR is helpful in darker situations. I have a set of the V1 and was really excited to see all the changes in the V2 hahaha. It fixed all of the problems that I had listed. They really listened to the user input when designing...

Sounds good, approximately how much range do you think you need to fly where you want? If your property is big enough a slightly cheaper quad and an antenna tracker set might be better. A 700£ budget is good. What might you want to carry? Are you going to do any film or is this just for...

What type of budget do you have to work with? Also what are your goals and features you will need and want?
