Re: Violent Shaking after custom mods, PLEASE HELP! (With Pi Good point, but 1: I already have a backup phantom and 2: I will save hundreds of dollars this way. Then I'll sell the leftover parts too.

Re: Violent Shaking after custom mods, PLEASE HELP! (With Pi It's not going to be a hack job Gizmo, I'm going to buy the parts needed. Example GPS module new ESC's, etc. And my TX is plenty capable, it's a Futaba TF8 with 14 channels.

Re: Violent Shaking after custom mods, PLEASE HELP! (With Pi OK,...found a solution. Just purchased the FlameWheel 450 Frame. Going to do a frame swap. I'm done trying to make the Phantom shell work. The full build would weigh in at 1720grams, so too much for phantom frame to handle. Hope this...

Re: Violent Shaking after custom mods, PLEASE HELP! (With Pi @EMCSQUAR How does one change center of gravity on the phantom? I don't think I've heard about that adjustment before.

Re: Violent Shaking after custom mods, PLEASE HELP! (With Pi @OI Photography I have 9" CF Props that i'm going to try. (need to balance them first) The other phantom running the two batteries was much lighter, didn't have anything on it except an anti-jello mount (no gimbal) Next step I think...

Re: Violent Shaking after custom mods, PLEASE HELP! (With Pi Yes, the batteries are mounted the same way, I tried also mounting the batteries below the brackets instead of on top and the same shaking happens. In desperation I wrapped electrical tape very tightly around the arms of the phantom...

Re: Violent Shaking after custom mods, PLEASE HELP! (With Pi @syotr Check All Good - Check All Good - Yes it does fly. The input response is good. It just shakes very bad, even in hover. As soon as it takes off it's smooth though, then 10sec into the flight "Shakes". @OI Photography While...

Aloha All, I had a perfectly good working Phantom. Then I decided to upgrade from Zenmuse 2-axis to a 3-axis Gimbal. After the installation, the phantom shakes violently (you can actually see the shell shake). All i did was remove Zenmuse, Install Gimbal Circuit board in battery compartment...

I was thinking the same thing with processing power. I've got a V.1.1 Man! What a crash,...almost went through the window of the house!! I'm sorry that happened to you. :shock: To me it looked like you got some interference that took control of your phantom. Bummer.

I don't know from personal experience, but users report the IMU's taking longer to warm up in cold weather and shorter to warm up in warmer weather so I presume it actually has to do with temperature. I believe all the "downloading" happens when the IMU's initialize (which is the period of...

Interesting,..I've seen videos of IMUs needing to be warmed up, but mine never have. I live in Hawaii where it's about 80 all year round and I've never needed to wait for the IMUs to warm up.

Ha! Awesome vid! Interesting he would strap them to the bottom of the landing gear, imagine it might cause something funky with the compass. Well this is confidence inspiring, I'm going to go for the 3 batteries. I'll report back how it went!! Thanks guys.

I pretty much maxed out my budget. I've spent almost $4000 and I only have a couple hundred left for this project. (Which includes a backup stock Phantom) I'm looking to get the flight time to about 9-10min. Nothing crazy, just more than 4-5min. I'm going to try 2 batteries and see how long that...

Aloha from Hawaii All, I've been reading this forum for a little while but I've just joined so this is my first post! Problem: My flight time with my current phantom is pretty bad,...about 4-5min of strong power before the Low Voltage light goes on when I give it full throttle. I know...
