I'm very excited about pressure driven thrust! I'll give it a try, can u put a binary up in your bitbucket or do I need to compile it myself? will you pull your changes to the main repo later?

Where can I buy 'em?

I think I should try this.

I've experienced this as well, I think the PID(?) motor control loop with the gyro's and accel's can be improved, this guy had it down I think.

I agree, maybe make the "tube" (where the motors are inserted in) a bit longer, and halfway put a ring to stop the motors from sliding to the bottom of the "tube" completely, this way you always land on the plasic. btw: I'm sure you guys make a fine new version of the mounts, you...

Thanks for pointing that out, I hadn't seen that thread.
I still do think that closing the bottom will improve the motor mount's overall quality, cause you can not land and skid on the wires or bottom of the motors anymore.
Adding soft material can optionally always be done as extra.
Just my 2 cents.

The image with your red arrow it not my CF :-D but by pure coincidence I did open a new subject on this topic :lol: cause I have that problem too, putting the motors a bit more inside helps, but not a permanent solution I think, see my other topic. Result without the propellers (on a flat surface, I...

The motor mounts allow for the bottom of the motor (the wires) to touch the ground, and if you land a lot/hard it will wear down, like this: I think this can be easily fixed by making sure the bottom of the mount is not open but closed with plasic just an idea...

Here some more tests, now on a non slippery couch, so the CF will not slide/vibrate a bit during the test, now they all test OK. The previous test in the earlier post was done on a modern flat table, I think thats why the show BAD on 2 motors. BTW: the fourth motor test starts after connecting. Only...
