  • I just started Y6 frame few days back.. no wonder yesterday it's gone wierd. the older version was all top motors CCW and all bottom motors CW (viewed from top). the motor connection is the same right? (right arms = 7 top, 1bottom. left arm = 2 top, 3 bottom. back arm= 8 top, 4 bottom) and new motor orientation is for left and right arms = top CW and bottom CCW and for rear arm = top CCW and bottom CW. is my understanding correct? then I have to resolder my connection since I used direct solder insteaD of motor connectors..

    Main reason for that change is to get more stability on bigger frames, ~ 1m in diameter. All Top CW, had some 'jumps/drops' when YAW, new setup have better YAW control.

    Speed ratio,is kind-off baked in already :) Motors running at different speed to keep correct heading... Also after doing some tests, there was no that big difference, top motors running ~ 5% slower, don't have any effect on efficiency ± 1min :) but add some stability issues.

     

     

     

     

     

     

  • What befell the speed ratio setting? Isn't it necessary though, to achieve the best efficiency, so is it just getting revamped or..?

  • any reason for the change?
