A question for the big brains here with a bit more experience than I have with this machine:
I've noticed that during my start-up routine when I power up the PV2 battery (after the Tx and Extender, of course) one of the four props twitches back and forth while the copter is doing it's R2-D2 thing and beeping a "good morning". The movement is not significant, just 1/32" or so of back and forth motion on just one prop and it only happens during the start-up song - to the beat. After that everything sits idle until I power up the motors for take-off.
Any ideas on whether or not this is something I should be concerned about or where I should start trying to troubleshoot it? With my admittedly limited knowledge of the complicated electronics involved, it seems to me that there is some feedback or cross-over happening somewhere in the power system. I poked around the Assistant v.1.08 software and didn't see anything that immediately looked like it would help figure this out.
As an aside - what is the proper number sequence for the motors? Is there one? I'd like to refer to them as Motor 1, Motor 2, etc. but I can't find any reference to this in the documentation.
Much appreciated...
