"A good post I read recently:

"Personally, I think Loiter has improved, but I am getting random cut outs. In other words, I will be in loiter behaving fine, then it will start to drift (lose GPS). It didn't seem to do this with V2.8.1+ older GPS FW (whatever came on it last…"
This may or may not be old news, but I thought it worthy of a post since many of us reside in this lovely state (including…
"Hey guys,
Just wanted to give a report. I have been flying v2.9 for probably 20 or so flights - generally long 10-12 min once. Mostly in stabilize, and it flies beautifully.
My setup: TBS discovery, 880kv motors, 9x5 graups, 4s, RTF ~1.65kg, …"

"It's counter-intuitive to me as well, but there is plenty of evidence suggesting that ND filters help with jello. I myself have seen it as well. Heck, just fly at noon and then at dusk with a Gopro and you will see the difference"
"Also, have you had similiar result (no jello) in full daylight? At least with the gopro, lower light situations can give footage with no jello a lot of times where full sunlight gives jello. This has been tested true quite a few times on the…"
"Thanks Robert. Could you post some pictures?"
"Care to share your method, R? Maybe you mentioned it in the Rusty/Seismic gimbal thread on the other forum.."
"Duran,
I recommend looking into isolating the motors as a second layer of isolation. Myself and many others have had good success with this riding the last bit of vibes that cause jello. I didn't mean to sound harsh in my previous post - your…"

"Really really awesome video. I like that quad a lot, but I think a bit more can be done on the vibration isolation. Jello bugs me to no end. If that video had no jello, I probably would be buying one today"
"Really good read. I would like to point out that many people (myself included) have had success using motor isolators in conjunction with a second layer of isolation - when it comes to dealing with rolling shutter or "jello" for cameras like the…"
"Randy,
Just a question: Is inertial aided alt hold automatic with v2.9+? I noticed the parameter AHRS_BARO_USE, which is disabled currently on mine. My guess is that is for something else."

"Will you be offering just the frame?"
"Does anyone have a log screenshot of RAW accel data that shows what vibration levels SHOULD look like? The reason I ask is because I am not sure I know what "acceptable" level of vibes on this system actually is. I have a TBS Discovery, which is a…"
"Just flew v2.9.1 on my disco and it's really good. Love the new alt hold.
Auto-trim did not work for me. I was completely sideways. So i just manually tweaked the AHRS parameters to make it level. Seemed to work"
