Once the weather here in Winnipeg, Canada warms up I…"

ward replied to Randy's discussion ArduCopter 2.7.2/2.7.3 released"The motors were all squared up at launch. I think the camera is messing with the image a bit (GoPro Hero2 with 170 degree lens). I do notice the right motor seems to twist a little left at one point. I also believe at the time of "control…"
ward replied to Randy's discussion ArduCopter 2.7.2/2.7.3 released"I used lots of lock-tite but the tube motor mounts still twisted on the carbon tube. I am now going to longer 12mm square aluminium tube with bolts going through the tubes. I am going to try and get at least an inch (2mm+) between the…"
ward replied to Randy's discussion ArduCopter 2.7.2/2.7.3 released"I saw that vibration too. With only one prop on one motor it did not vibrate as I did ballance the props. I think the problem was two fold: 12" props were too close to each other ; Arms were too long and too thin (12mm). The…"

ward replied to Joonas's discussion Motor redundancy with PID tuning"I flew my Octo for the first time yesterday. On two flights I had a prop explode. The Octo flew very poorly but did land. I lost almost all control but it stayed relatively level. I agree that this area needs more work. One note: if this had been my…"
ward replied to Palmer Eldritch's discussion Strange motor behavior"Not sure what it is. I think I have two bad ESC's. The troubled ones are running very hot. A blast of canned air (upside down) causes them to run MUCH better. Eight new ones with SimonK code on order."
ward replied to Palmer Eldritch's discussion Strange motor behavior"I am getting the same situation on my octo. Each time I calibrate my ESC's I get a different motor stalling out or running slow. I have tried the APM2 ESC calibration and the direct-to-receiver calibration. Both seem…"
