P3P spins on ascent

[rwparkinson]

Any ideas on why my P3P spins as it ascends and is unstable when hovering at target elevation?

First thing to do is an imu calibration. Place it some where cool, stable and level (I use the floor of my basement) of about 30 min. Then as quickly as possible turn everything on and go to imu calibrating on the Go app. Start the calibration and don't touch anything until it tells you it's done.

Mabe 1 motor not spinning at same rpm as others?

I'll try this. Thanks.

It needs four propellers, otherwise it will spin

Change out all four props?
