Not sure if this is where I should be posting this or not but if it's in the wrong place just let me know.
I'm having a frustrating take off issue with my Quad. Had a bad crash a while. Quad was on the final approach during a RTL. It was hovering at about 10m's and I could hear that one of the motors didn't sound right. Also the Quad started to wobble.... before I could retake control to bring it down myself it dropped like a stone resulting in multiple broken blade and 3 out of the 4 arms breaking. I've rebuilt the Quad. Replace
of the motors. One which I knew was faulty and another which I suspected maybe faulty.
Now ready to test fly but having take off issue which can be seen in the video. One side is ready to lift off but it appears the other side isn't which results in the Quad just tipping over. Anyone got any ideas or suggestions? Link to video footage http://youtu.be/zteOo__27e4

I was very busy with work today and am wondering if you made progress?

I reread your post...my question was more are you using any motors and ESCs from the crash?
A common rebuild error is exchanging two ESC drives on the controller side. We have seen many fresh build exhibit the same behaviour of 'tilting take off'. Your issue is different because your aircraft was flying previously...assuming no repair error.

Are you using the same motors and ESCs from the crashed quad?
Are you using APM? If so, you should turn on MOTORS logging via CLI to record the motor drive values.
I suspect we will see one motor is taking substantially more drive and still not performing.
