Thanks to you too gtranquilla:
1) I didn't calibrate the battery (don't have a voltmeter) but I did choose 3S and left the voltage protections alone (1st level = 10.8V, Loaded) (2nd level 10.4V loaded).
2)How can I tell if they are binding? They seem to compensate for the multirotor movement just fine though.
3)Temperate is 8C (according to yahoo weather)
4i)...
4ii)Batteries were brand new from HobbyKing. Balanced charging started at around 3.8V and finished at 4.2V per cell. About 2500mah were added during this charge.
5)I am using a PC power supply (unmodified). Output rating is 12V 8.5A Max 110W
6)Not really sure how to tell if they are faulty, some have more of a 'click' and spring into position when I turn them with my hand than others.
7i)Stock F550 (props,ESC,motors etc) with 5000mah 3S, landing legs and gimbal (without GoPro in at the moment), GPS, Naza, receiver. AUW is roughly 2kg
7ii)Pretty much took it outside plugged it in and flew it so... No
8)1st level = 10.8V, Loaded --- 11.5V, No Load
2nd level = 10.4V, Loaded --- 11.1V No load
I think it might be to do with the batteries for some reason. When I balance charged them they did finish at 4.2V per cell when the Accucel-6 said 'FULL'
Please don't be a faulty Naza... PLEASE don't be a faulty Naza...
