Prop change with gimbal addition?

[carguy4471]

I added an aeroxcraft gimbal and gear to my f550. I'm running 4s 6000 batteries. Stock DJI 8 inch props. Was flying very good before hand, now it's wobbling all over in the wind and yaw is all over the place. Threw it into manual and hover was a good bit above half throttle.

Are these all signs I need to up my prop size? This is my assumption but wanted more opinions. I was about to order some 9 inch graupners, should I fire off the order or would 10 inch be better?

Thanks everyone!

Have a 550 with landing gear and Go Pro gimbal.

Using 4S 6000mAh batteries with 9" Graupners. Was using the 10"
Graupners, but it likes the 9" better.

Motors run cooler too.

Perfect! I'll throw the stock 10 inch on it for a few days till I get the graupner props.

Motors seem to get pretty hot on the stock 10 inch. Which way ya think I should go until I get my 9 inch graupners??

It was wobbling around almost the same on the 10 inch?? Gains need to go up or down you suspect?

Seems I have a bad ESC. Swapped motors around and number 4 barely spins up regardless of motor or slot in naza. Good fun. Looks like I need a new one.
