    I think you should try the same size props but more pitch on bottom prop that the top. Since the lower prop has x mph air being forced into it and the upper is in basically static air.

    They're like Gremlins. Feed the cute little one just once at 12:01am, and BAM!

    @Digital, it is a spontaneous generation without father. That's scary isn't it ?

    @Neil, Yes I have tested about 10%shorter props on top versus bottom. Results are clear:

    -Hover total current with same sizes props is 70A

    while hover total current with 10% shorter props on top is around 60A

    -I have less vibrations in filming with shorter props on top than same size props

    Naturally hover point is between 5% and 10% higher with shorter props (you loose some thrust obviously)

    It will only get worst from here... I heard they haven't found a cure yet!

    I find something about mr.red quite endearing

    are you having luck with the shorter/ longer prop combination?

    The camera of Mr Red's gimbal was used to take this picture, therefore unbalanced hanging gimbal...
