Tilting at take off after motor replacement

[Fly Dawg]

That involved soldering the new motor wires in place.

Ok, missed that. Apologies to @MadMaqx for the comments.

I think it should be on this one.

DAT from AC on an MA or M2 won't do us any good. They are encrypted that only DJI can read them.
I don't know why they did that.

Should be simple 2 turn one way 2 other opposite sides

With lift sorry

So we have to fly blind (excuse the pun) when it comes to figuring out the problem then?

I disagree. The MA is readable. The M2 is not. See the link posted in post #10.

Sounds dumb you dont have wires reversed causing motor to turn opposite

??? Yes....yes I did. In future always refer to the reference pictures you took beforehand when replacing parts so that you know where the wires are actually supposed to go. This will prevent your drone becoming a schizophrenic kamikaze aircraft that wants to simultaneously take off and plow itself into the ground.
Switched the wires and I am putting it back together now so will do a test flight in a while.
What a dim wit.

Flight successful. Took off and did all a quick jaunt in all directions, all seems to be working correctly. All I can say is phew and I now dont have to inform my boss I broke the company's thousand quid drone.
Thanks again for all your help and suggestions.

Any modification? Replaced props with aftermarket parts

Don't forget that if you use aftermarket props, their efficiency might be different and you'll have to adjust the gain settings for the ESCs. This wouldn't cause your tilt problem (unless of course you're mixing standard DJI props with aftermarket ones) but just thought I'd throw in my 2c (plus GST where applicable).
