noticeable vibration with e1200 + s900 (before takeoff)

i recently moved my setup to an s900 and took it out for a few test flights. pretty trouble free using the WKM from my s800, futaba tx/rx, etc. seemed much smoother than the s800.

before getting too far into it, i swapped out the arms for the e1200 upgrade to get a little quieter flight and longer flight times, hopefully.

it's installed now but even just motor testing or initial arming power levels seem to cause major vibrations in the arms. easily visible. i don't recall this from the stock s900 setup (or even my s800!)

i haven't taken it up in the air yet... a little worried. i also noticed when configuring two of the ESCs to red LED that the prop type seemed to be quick release, not folding. i didn't change anything except the LED setting on the two i plugged in...

Easy? You call that easy?
Agreed.

Vibration during startup is normal the first time after transport. Once the throttle goes beyond idle speed the props will straighten out.
