"Thanks Randy, will do some further testing when it stops raining."
"Hi Reuben, I did not have anything heavy attached to the F1000-M8 as I was initially trying 3 different motor sets with various prop combinations. In hindsight I am now aware that I had the same issue when using 3.1.1 in loiter on an RCT800 Hex, a…"
"Hi Randy, thanks for all the work you and the other developers have put into AC.I spent the last few days battling a pendulum like effect on an F1000-M8 Octa in Loiter on APM 2.5.2 with AC 3.1.1, had real bad pendulum effect and if hit by a gust of…"

"Hi randy, I loaded ArduCopter 3.1-rc2 on my Talon Hex, it flew like mushy dog poo, then I swapped the cheap plastic props for some Rctimer CF 9 x 5 and WOW, 3.1-rc2 flies the Hex beautifully now, had no idea CF props could make that much…"
