Hi folks

Noticed this judder coming from the black arms, I've tried two new black props and still the same, flies fine, I just happend to notice it.....It does it at a certain revloution, power up or down, its hard to see reall in the video, try at 1080, i didnt want to get too close.

It flies great, like i said, i just happened to notice it when lightly throttleing it up, you can hear it more than you can see it but im sure its
out of character, does a motor need balancing? i did a IMU clabration before i didnt the video just in case but still the same....

Have you checked the motor screws to make sure they are secure.

I´d see on video that the rear LEDs are blinking red. That´s not normal for a regular take off. Did you mention to any message on the Go App? May be anything is going wrong inside the bird.

Souds like you getting some errors somewhere, it should be red you should have green lights. Maybe try resetting the firmware and hopefully that will work. Check your props and do some other tests.

Flashing red is an indication of low battery charge (page 16 in manual). I suspect you're just seeing some vibration against the table or decking with updraft being created. It is not a normal situation to be sitting on the ground with the motor speed changing like that. A puff of wind or a wrong bounce on landing gear might just cause it to tip over, and that could cause some damage.

Take off as quickly as possible, and shut down motors immediately after landing is safest procedure.
