Hi All,

My P4 is flying with one of its side more higher than other. And the motors of this side is warming up more too.

What can it be?

Thanks

Is it flying in windy conditions?

No, in normal condition (without wind).

I would try an IMU calibration in as cool an area possible (air conditioned room ?). With the aircraft sitting on a level surface (checked with level if possible) and not disturbed by movement or vibration when calibrating.

If the aircraft is tilted,  does it drift in one direction or stay in a hovered stable position?

The aircraft is tilting only when i am accelerating. When it is hovering, it's stable.

No, it is flying crooked, I'm accelerating and it moving forward, the right side is more higher than left side (righ side tilted) and after the flight, the motors of right side more hot than other side

barring a mechanical issue, I agree with the other commenters that your next step would be to calibrate your IMU making absolutely sure that the P4 is perfectly level.
