"Its documented in the motor setup page http://copter.ardupilot.com/wiki/motor-setup/

But looking at it again, its definitely not obvious other than a single picture with some tiny arrows.  What probably would be better is a "motors reversed" sort…"

"I have checked it time and time again.  But you are correct, it is a motor rotation problem, BECAUSE I had the frame set to "H Frame", which requires the rotation of props to spin the opposite to a common X and V frame (the usual quads I build)So…"

"I would expect, if its back heavy, wouldn't it just spool up the rear motors more to keep it level?The hard part also will be working out where the optimal center of gravity should actually be on a TBS like frame"

I liken it to a chef making a meal.  While yes you could get…"
