Ok, my last test hop was at 3.8 and my level is set at 10.1 I made one more move down to 3.5 as the wobble was almost gone. I did not try my level mode on that last flight. I had my video gear hooked up along with my voltage OSD to test it. I was able to glance over and check the video from time to time. Flying while looking at that screen is going to take allot of practice and open space!

Throttle issue and questions
I am helping a buddy build a quad using the Quadrino Multiwii Flight Controller. He is using Turigy Plush ESCs. He did a great job wiring the board and he calibrated the ESCs. When we start to run up the quad, the Front left motor doesn't really start to spool until nearly 1/3rd throttle. Back right starts just a bit before that. Look at the video please.
1. Does the GUI display what the board is telling EACH ESC to do? 2. Does the GUI display what the ESC is reallly doing? Like if it shows 1343 for a value, is that what the board is telling the ESC to do or is it what the ESC is really doing? 3. We swapped all motor plugs on board and problem DID NOT swap. Thanks in advance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kF1cZZk9L50 |

Nice tests. You seem to have proved that it was not your frames by swapping out controllers. It seems a lot of people are having problems with wobble. I was going to put the Quadrino on my T-Copter. After hearing all this, there is no way I am putting it on my T-Copter with my GoPro, OSD and all the work I put into this thing. P settings shouldn't have to be that low for stable flight. Something is not right. I hope we can get a fix for this. Doug |

I'm going to swap out my Quadrino for my warthox WM+ board and see if my wobbles go away on my 550 x4 frame. Has anyone tried reaching out to Colin about this yet?
Edit: I just sent him an email asking for advice on settings that will cancel the wobbling. |

I checked mine again today. and I still haven't adjusted mine fully yet. and I have no wobble. My setting are P-3-5 I stock, D 17. the only thing I have done so far is balance my props. I am able to hover hands off for a good 20-30 seconds without autolevel. Are you guys checking the balance of the copter and your props.

I got my Quadrino a bit ago but had some ESC troubles.
Finally took it for a run today and man its stable as a rock with the stock PID settings. I was able to fly just fine in the 20mph wind gusts here, the wind was about 10mph and about every minute a nice 20mph gust would come and with stabilization on it handled just fine (Sure it wiggled a little but that's to be expected in high winds, but it was still controllable). QuadRino ADV
Working on FPV setup, not 100% setup yet, wanted to give it a fly first. I'll get a few videos up soon(tm). |

OK guys here is one thing you need to check and can cause some issue. what kind of board mounts are you using. you need to make sure you are using some vibration mounts. if you are using metal or plastic use a rubber o-ring to stop the vibrations. it helps. or you can order these they work great. http://shop.quadrocopter.us/Vibratio...ount_p_42.html
