Hi Guys,
I've been watching FliteTest for the last 2 and a half years or so and have finally decided to build my first real RC model.
I decided to build a tricopter using the X900 frame from Hobby King and the set of electronics that David recommended for his tricopter V3 frame. I would have gotten one of his frames but they were on back order and I didn't have long enough holidays to wait.
So I assembled it all, set up the KK2 via David's instructions, calibrated the ESCs and it won't take off. The props are spinning in the correct direction but it just shakes so wildly that I'm not confident to give it any more throttle, in the video it's just over 1/2 throttle. Also towards the end of the video one motor just stops working all together.
Not having a great first experience, any one got some advice for me?
