Hello All,
Recently I've had some issues with a quadcopter of mine just falling out of the air randomly as if the radio has lost signal. I 3d printed the entire frame with Carbon Fiber PLA and didn't think too much of it. When after replacing every part on the quad and it was still falling out of the air i did some googling about CF and RC. I read a couple stories of people using carbon fiber rods for support in their plane and having radio issues until changing to fiberglass or other material. I reprinted my frame in just standard PLA and sure enough it quit falling out of the sky. Does anyone here know anything about Carbon Fiber cause issues between the TX and the RX? It seems crazy to me that it was my problem, especially since they sell quad frames made of CF.
