I am noticing that my craft is changing it's response little by little. I fly with 2 6000 6s2p. 3 sets.. all have same life on them.. I always charge to 4.1 per cell.
without any changes to the S800/Zen and the WKM.. (been like 2 months) since I plugged the WKM into my laptop. I always start my first pack of the day with a full charge TX battery. The other 2 then just gets the rest. I normally fly each pack once a day so I only get 3 flights a day on the S800.
Here is what I am noticing:
1. gradually, when I add power and then put the stick to neutral to hover, the craft continues to climb. I normally counter by dropping the stick down below the neutral to try to stop it from ascending more. eventually it stops and hovers, and I have to mess with the stick between going above and lowering it till the stick is in the center and the craft hovers. Same effect when I try to descend. I have to plan out much more and gradually noticing that I have to plan way ahead to slow the descending and push the throttle above the middle to even notice the motor changing it's speed. eventually i get it to hover in the center stick again.
2. at hover, I notice, when I tilt the craft in a forward flight, at about 10ft out, the craft starts to gain altitude and continues to gain altitude, even when I center all the sticks.. I have to drop the stick below center.. almost 30% mark to get the craft to stop ascending.
I am boggled.. I have not changed anything.. I have check batteries on both s800 and TX. I have re taped all my cables back down.. in same spot, checked for any movement on parts. "visually checked props".
I am heading to balance props, but it would not seem like it is a props issue. This is consistently getting more noticeable. I am now seeing it at every flight.. as appose to once or twice a week. This started about 4 weeks ago, when I notice the first event. I focused on the battery, thinking it may be a bad cell or something. But now, all three sets are common on each flight.
I am on 5.14a.. want to do the firmware at last resort.
Any advice to look at? I will take any advice.. even if it is the same as to what I have done.
I have not calibrated for about 2 months, but should I need to base on time? I am thinking that I only need to do it if I am flying in different locations "if magnetic deviates changes."
