We've got a lot of people definitively saying that the flight characteristics are unstable. It would be good if we could get some experienced pilots stating that everything seems normal too. Something is causing this. We all have the same bird, same firmware... so we need a baseline to understand where things are going wrong. I'm going to test more tomorrow.
Not sure I'd agree with "unstable" but I think "aggressive" aptly covers it. I fly about 40 hours a week and was holding off on the upgrade. I went through with it today because I had 2 flights planned and wanted an accurate "before and after".
Flight this morning was business as usual, everything checked out, only warning was the notice to upgrade.
Flight this afternoon after upgrades was "aggressive". Quad in hover would rise and sink on its own suggesting throttle is out of sync now. Lateral movement was very sensitive.
I usually fly intentionally close to objects for creative purposes, ie. through trees, low overhangs, - I like to thread the needle for dramatic effect.
Would not attempt any of those kind of shots in this current condition, the response is too unpredictable.
Just watching it idle in a hover suggests to me that the 4 motors are no longer acting as one. |
