Nice! Looking at doing a bit bigger of a hex.

Thanks, something I have learned so far is the difference between a symmetrical Hexacopter and an asymmetrical Hexacopter. The Thorax is definitely asymmetrical and after a Youtube physics lesson I have adjusted the FC mixer editor to match my motor layout and now I will be resetting my P & I settings.

Finally dialed in my PI settings, now my Hexacopter flies nice and stable. Not that tuning was all that hard, I had to find the time!

Do you happen to have the values to input into mixer editor for the thorax? It really confused me. Sorry NOOB alert!
