It was very easy to program the hard part was getting it installed.

Hey, @LitterBug are 2.5" props close enough in size (the mounting base, the kind with 3 holes) to 2.3" to work?

 

[LitterBug]

as long as they don't hit anything....

Do you have pictures?? Curious to see what you have for your quad

Here you go, as you can see I have plenty of clearance between the body and the tip of the prop, though I might have to take off the prop guards. The props that I have on it are 2345's and I have heard a lot of people say they didn't like them..I have these on the way.

We had a little accident yesterday though......

Might get these when they are back in stock....

Yeah, that clearance may be necissary with the prop guards on, unless you can open them up a bit with a little heat. Plausibly with 3D printed guards...

@LitterBug do you know why the drone quivers or is unstable sometimes in midair especially when slowing down?

 

[Houndpup Rc]

Maybe PID tuning? (I think that's what its called)

 

[LitterBug]

PID tuning can be part of it. Vibrations can cause issues. When you fly through your own propwash, that can happen too.

I’ve had that happen the the propel drone I used to have.

Hey @LitterBug do you know what the Rx pad is for on this? (We upgraded her vtx)here's the link to the user manual: https://hglrc.attachments6.freshdes...TYMrUPdQLQ__&Key-Pair-Id=APKAJ7JARUX3F6RQIXLA
Also I am trying to set up Smart audio on her drone with this vtx but I can't seem to get it to work this is the FC I have: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...sQFnoECBYQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1nECWLnkBzDonSFn8VQ7MA

 

[LitterBug]

The link to the VTX gives me a broken link.

Did the stock VTX have Smart Audio?

 

[Mr Man]

So I want to make a drone, and here’s what I’ve got so far, is there anything else I need? (Besides props and battery). Btw, that’s a 35a 4 in 1 esc.

 

[Mr Man]

And what are these?
