were building out a halo right now for this type of duty,,,, 8x kde 52mm on 17" and it has 110 lbs of thrust,,,, on paper..... with the 55lbs limit in view cause we signed up to accept that, means i'll have 18-20lbs for payloads.... after the batteries are strapped on my skyjib frame is like a...

try slipping something between the tube and rubber to help break the "stuck".... like small screw driver, work the tip around the tube to break it free, then your lube will help slide it off....

That indicates too low of throttle hover that was doing it if adding weight fixed it.... lack of yaw authority from too low of rpm.... smaller props for 1 battery, i run 12's on 400kv, 1x 4000 mah tbs battery

just to throw this out there, you can get a similar setup with a monitor for about the same for similar grade gear.... it is a lot easier to progress with fpv from los with a monitor,,, once your under hood, you stimulated in a way that makes it harder to learn, the juices are flowing, etc...

that's pretty much it as far as stuff to look for, usually esc's are the only loss. some people like pool noodles things, but it's super un aerodynamic, but floats alot for the lengths it takes.

something else just came to mind, make tripple sure the motor bolts are not protruding into or touching the windings. do you hear anything when it's doing it's wag? can you hear the motors revving or whistling or???

are you catching the part about revving the throttle up and down and feeling the full range of throttle for vibes in each one..... that's pretty big deal to feel anything there. if your showing a static picture it leads me to believe that's all your looking at, a certain rpm...

if you feel any as you ramp the throttle up and down that is not normal.....

definitely use a bec my light goes solid at one point and flashes another but i never noted what was what. i'd feel around for something coming apart... a servo will start to draw massive ammounts of current when they start to break or if there is a bind. new servos are $20,,,,

HD and oled monitor,,, big ones in the 26" range just like they do it on all the rest of the platforms like boom, jib, crane, etc. we have been playing with two hd systems and one follow focus setup. We tried the arri but it's too big and cumbersome

is there a pwm setting on the castle esc's? if so you might find out what setting is working for others with those motors.... usually 12 i believe is middle timing and usually works on anything

it will affect whatever axis it is fighting.... if your saying i've been doing 50mph for mile stretches and all i see is a yaw wobble is a whole different animal than i am hovering this new build and the yaw is wobbly so i guess it depends on when your seeing this, but yea, if a rig flies like...

all the wires are soldered directly to the battery ends.... the crossover is just a piece of servo wire from + to -

If your confident enough in your skills, put one prop on a motor and remeasure, do one prop at a time to keep too many finger slicers from spinning while your holding it....

take all your props off and fire it up, feel each arm for any vibrations, is there any?

My jr radio i left after single rotors was a life pack,, it worked alright but the capacity was still 2200 or something in that range. the cells are 2.5" long I took and used old servo leads i had snipped off esc's before redoing the servo ends on builds.... i just cut the little black...

i'm on the hexacrafter gimbal with alexmos. but it maxes out on gh4 right now, and we fly alot of epics and those are home brewed from aerial mob.... 80mm, etc. my hexacrafter one is only 5 lbs with a 1.5 lbs lens so it's my definate go to cause it's never good conditions when we work,,, EVER...

go fly what you got, when you get used to it and wanna get going beyond it's capabilities you'll find out about it all.

it's a different link and fpv will expose that for ya when you start getting brave and trying something more than high flying. your radio is a contender for the ezuhf plug in module for jr radios and that would fix everything if you get sick of failsafing. for fpv theres 2 super important...
