You guys will not get that joke at all.
OK, I will explain, we use a "female stimulator" to test vibrations tolerances of the designs.
Gary, you are for sure pushing up too far!
Hi Frederic and welcome to the forum. You did that vibration tool many months ago. Do you still find that it is useful or is it easier to just go old school and manually balance?The tool could be ported to OP; I have been thinking about that. I already have a python implementation of the OP UavTalk. In addition some support should be added to the CC code itself.
Should not be too much work, but I will not have time the coming months I'm afraid.

I do believe that the old school balancing is only part of the story. OMM on RCGroups has discovered that the vibrations are highly influenced by how the prop is positioned on the motor. In my tests I came to the same conclusions. It is believed that this is caused by the motors itself that are also unbalanced and that the prop unbalance can counter-act or enhance the unbalance. Props and motors should be balanced together. I used an MK and OMM used a dedicated setup for this.Hi Frederic and welcome to the forum. You did that vibration tool many months ago.

Sorry, my fault. I sent Frederic a link and asked if he could comment. He has some house stuff happening now and is really short on time, I doubt he will have much time for quads for a while which sucks for us as he is one great coder.
I fly RC stuff since I was a kid (30 years ago). I got interested in aerial photography almost 10 years ago, later in FPV. Started with MK 3 years ago but got very annoyed with the MK designers attitude. I started helping OP a bit more than a year ago. I did a few thinks for OP here and there, but no big chunks and unfortunately I do not have too much timeFirst of all, Welcome Frederic to MRF.. Guessing another OP guy but you could let us know a bit more about yourself before just jumping in to a thread with a statement like that...
DAMPERS ON MOTORS... ehh...
You need to explain a bit more
Again welcome and dont forget to just post a quick one in the DroidWorx frame give-away thread... u got to be in it to win it!
