JELLO EFFECT

[naturarquista]

I cheked my props and the are balanced rightly, any way, i dont have big issues with jelly effect, but i can find som vibration.

Do you know what can we do, the replacement rubbers of the Gimbal, what are they for?

Hi,

Jello can be the result of vibrations coming from the props or motors.
Do also check the rubber dampers, they have to be in good shape.
These rubber dampers absorb vibrations.
You might have to balance your motors if nothing else solve the problem. It takes some time to do that.
Here is a "how to" video on youtube : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYqtwd4xXYo

Can you post a video so that we can see how bad the jello is ?

Geert, thank you very much for your answer.
So, how does a bad damper look?

Here, I uploaded a video, is the only thing i can upload for now, any way, i think you can notice it:

Do you think that flying in GPS mode produces more JELLY EFFECT?

It needs to do more corrections so it might do.
You sometimes see it more when the motors work harder for example windy day.
I can't see much to worry about in your video above.

Yes, ok, so i put to motors to work with out the props, and with my finger i touch the top of the motors, those that are grey or black depending on the prop. I felt that one motor wasnt as smooth as the other.
I find that my dampers are ok, my props are ok, so maybe i will have to check the motors using the video that Greet posted up here.

Great video Geert. Curious, what makes the motors become out of balance?

One single hit to the ground on a bad landing or a small crash - bends the shaft of the motor. Thats why so many get Jello!

So, whats the idea odf selling expensive quadcopters to "normal" people if with any hit the thing will stop working as right as they show.

DJI experimenting with us

Do you have any video of the jello ? If it's windy you make some , but normally the plus is real good.
