    newbuild tarot 650 looking for some advise..

    Assuming you have a good FC and GPS brand and unit, review the location of the GPS to motor, battery, and ESC wiring. A common error is routing power transmission and signal wires close to a GPS unit, or the GPS wiring. Look at that and see if something in that line up might be improved...
