    Yaw drift issue

    Just a thought, try to open the slow motor, I wonder if the shaft or the ball bearing needs to be adjusted, as I mentioned in an earlier post, one of the motors on my bird was stopping earlier then the others (didn't have rpm meter ) I simply opened the motor and noticed that the shaft was bent...

    Yaw drift issue

    I was gonna suggest the RPM meter as Royva mentioned. I saw a tutorial on YouTube on how you can troubleshoot the issue.

    Yaw drift issue

    Check your motors and make sure all 4 spins with the same resistance (when turned by hand) and all stop at the same time when disarmed. Had similar issue, one motor had a bent shaft, opened it and yaw was 95% fixed

    If you just purchased a brand new Phantom 2 Vision+ V3 READ!

    Re: If you just purchased a brand new Phantom 2 Vision+ V3 R That's my dilemma, I was thinking of keeping the regular wire but wrapping them with a layer or two of heatshrink, and yes, adding a some hot glue on the joints. would this help? It would be great if someone can advice.

    URGENT: Tighten your props with wrench

    This makes more sense, as a developer, this looks like SDK bug where they are using a signed int (short int and int: -32,767 to 32,767) that is overflowing. I hate closed source, I said it in a different thread, but DJI is the Apple of quadcopter, if anything I hate about Apple is their closed...

    Re: If you just purchased a brand new Phantom 2 Vision+ V3 R Thanks Mick! Hey, I just finished reading your crash thread, man what a bummer!!! Did you have the 2.1 ESC ? From the pics, looks like FET failure. Now I am all worried whether I should upgrade to ESC v2.1 and motor 2312 .

    DJI Phantom - can't save COG location

    @Jason, I am not referring to the xyz under view, I am referring to the GPS values under Basic -> Mounting -> Mounting Location, I can adjust them as long at the quad stays on, but they don't persist after power cycle. To me this looks like a bug, unless the values are not been used by the IMU...

    DJI Phantom - can't save COG location

    That's a real bummer, as the algorithm is now using a wrong important value (the center of gravity) or maybe not even using it, I understand that it will compensate using other variables like (gyro and accelerometer), but it won't be as efficient as supplying a more accurate Gravity center, I...

    DJI Phantom - can't save COG location

    hmmm... right, I am in the phantom assistant software, the top is for orientation correct, but what about adjusting the center of gravity?

    DJI Phantom - can't save COG location

    Folks, Not sure if you tried to set the XYZ values in the "Mounting Location" tab of the Assistant Software, but those numbers keep resetting to 0 after power cycling the quad. IMU (X/Y/Z) : the values reset to 0 after hitting enter GPS (X/Y/Z) : Seems to be stored in a volatile memory and...
