"The motor would only be doing what the throttle stick is telling them to do. Take out any expo or curve in your tx, then recalibrate your radio and also the ESC's again. This should match the throttle position to the ESC's. Calibration the ESC's can…"
"Sounds a frustrating start but I have been there!
If your props started spinning immediately it could mean the ESC's need calibrating and it may play to redo the radio calibration again. For the nose dive check the motors are plugged into the PH in…"

"At 8 kgs the calculator gives
Hover Thrust = 11,220 g
Maximum Thrust = 21,120 g
Peak Efficiency = 12.857 g/W
Being 2 Kgs lighter would make it a bit more sensitive?"

"Hi Justin.
Good question. The present weight is 6 Kg and but with the camera gear it will be about 8 kgs. Using the KDE calculator and 8 kgs they recommend the KDE 3510XF 475 motors. which is what I have. At the present weight of 6 kgs it is a bit…"

"Thanks for the further information!
I had RC_FEEL_RP set at 50 just as a starting point and will try and do some in flight tuning.Maybe work my way up towards 11 bit by bit.
However I'm a bit confused about the Inflight Tuning. It says to Set the…"

"Thanks for the replies!
I'm confident the accelerometer calibration is OK and when it is in the air it flies well and is very stable. I have done a auto tune but later wound the P back hoping it would fix the take off problem.
Clifton may have…"

Hi.I am having major stability problems on takeoff with my Pixhawk controlled Tarot 810 Hex. If I try and take off smoothly and slowly it starts wobbling and will usually flip onto its side. If I get it to leap into the air by applying the throttle…
"I think he is also asking for some help on reading and analysing the logs. Information on how to graph the log files is difficult to find and understand. I for one would like to find some information how to use the log graphs!"
"Thanks Craig.I am after some 6 strand flat cable but will take a look at your servo wire."
Hi. I want to make up some ribbon cables for my Pixhawk. I have the connectors but can't find where to buy the flat cable. I need the 6 strand and it looks like 28 AWG.Anyone know a supplier.Any help appreciated.Peter
"Thanks for the log suggestion which I will use! I eventually got it working after reseating the gps cables which allowed a gps lock on. As a guess the flight modes need a gps lock before arming?? There is a lot to learn but getting there. Thanks…"
Hi.I have been trying to follow the wiki instructions building a Hoverthings Flip Sport Quadcopter using a Pixhawk, a 4-in-1 Speed Control Quad HOBBYWING Skywalker Quattro 25A x 4 and a Frsky Taranis but am having no luck getting the motors to work…
"Sounds good advise and I will visit eCalc.
Thanks again."
Thanks again."
"Shawn
Thanks for the link and it looks exactly what I want. Even has photos of the RX100 in the gimbal!
The Sony RX100 M3 is a great little camera and I am awaiting delivery of a Stratosnapper 2.
Can I ask what frame would be good to carry this…"

"I also have a Sony RX100 M3 which I want install on a drone. If anyone has done this could they advise on what 3 axis gimbal that would suit this camera?"
