After my previous crash of my tricopter while testing the flight times, I was trying to figure out was wrong. Me along with some other people on forums thought that my servo could be pulling to many amps, causing a brown out. Now the reasoning behind that is because, well, tail servos for tricopters aren't small and the afro esc's only put out .5 amps...So I bought a 5v 5amp external bec and have it all wired up like I said in the video and went to test it out.
I flew it very fast like when it crashed the first time, pulled it back because it was getting futher away, it pulled back for a second (with my input), then rotated itself a bit, stopped pulling back, and flipped towards the right motor while speeding up the other motors(all against my input). You can see this better in the video.
Now I'm almost sure its not my radio since my planes all fly fine, I dont think it is the firmware since so many people use 1.6 on tricopters and dont have problems. So it could be my board, my receiver or how I have my bec hooked up.
I wouldn't even bother rating this, this article is not really helping anyone besides me.
Any input from you guys would be awesome!
