    When I went to the 35's , that was the reason I didn't go with the kde's. Setting couldn't be changed. And haven already used the Castle's and they have a plethora of settings.

    If I remember, you couldn't change settings when they first came out?

    Does the kde interface allow you to change timing, startup level, reverse, and other settings?

    That would drive me nuts.

    That's why I only use Castle. No sync issues whatsoever with the KDE's. All motors always start up at the same time. :) It's like they were made for the SuperX. Biggest grip with other esc brands....Castle actually answers the phone anytime you have a question.

    G4d, Don't change your esc's quiet yet. You need to work on balancing those props better, and recheck motor alignment. Symptoms your talking about are not related to the esc's. There are many using KDE esc's with the X with no probs. I use the Castle MR 35 w/kde 515kv. I personally like the...

    Foxtech supreme 16" prop

    Slight loss in efficiency. If you google, tmotor cf's where changed back around two years ago. Refined the blade profile an lowered pitch.:)

    There's nothing wrong with the unit.

    All you need to do is get another set of 10 gauge wires to the pdb. I think all those extra connectors and wire, plus the Y is contributing to your voltage sag. Make sure they are short as possible without creating any strain on the wires.

    Need to see some pics to help you more. But right off you need each batt going directly to the pdb. You want wires as short as possible between batts and escs. What gauge wire are you using for the batt connections to the pdb?

    Meaning you don't have to do stick cali again, just go directly to compass cal. Same goes if you just make receiver change you only have to do stick and neutral point cal. I haven't calibrated mine in over a year and lines are always parallel.

    Ahh,.... Gps is to close to the batts Raise it,;) just the current flowing through those wires creates a magnetic field. As far as the batts go. Do you have a charger that measures IR. If so take a reading and lets see where they are at. Other then that, what gauge wire do you have going to the...

    Your getting a little close to 100% without your camera and gimbal. Do you have a current sensor on board? Your going to want to know what it was on those climb outs. Because I think you probably need a higher c rated lipo. I am not for sure, but that was a pretty good voltage drop. Your max...

    Ok:rolleyes: It's amazing what you can gain by just parking it in gps mode in a 10 knot wind and slowly yaw around and watching how it transitions headings. How it handles the wind was my biggest tuning aid. If that makes sense.

    Hope you didn't take my post wrong:( Just trying to share my experiences and reliability of the X.

    Well lately 90% of the last 40 hrs has been over water and have never had a loss of gps, just gives me a little more confidence. Much easier to fly at the edge of LOS on UHF. I get plenty of manual time on my RC eye one xtreme.:)

    I did all my tuning in gps mode. Once I got it where i wanted it.(after many hours) I found that it also then flies perfect in atti and manual. The fastest forward flight so far in atti was 52 mph. In gps I average around 30 mph full forward pitch.
