Hello,
I have a heavy lift hexa copter based on rusty's frame with 16mm booms, fitted with AXI 2814/22 and AV200-360 gimbal. The copter is capable of take-off at about 60% throttle with an AUW of about 5000grams with APC 14X4.7. I know that I'm running the APC SFs at way above their recommended safety limit so I wanted to switch to APC Thin electrics 13X6.5. The problem I'm having is whenever I install the 13X6.5 and about the point the copter is about to take one or more of the booms break. I haven't balanced any of my props(neither the SF or the Thin Electric) so I assume it's vibration related issue but on my du-bro balancer neither set of props seems severely out of balance. No idea what's going on...any experience with these props? Any idea what's going on?
