Mine flashes if at some point it has lost signal, and then regained it. If you power everything up, then turn the TX off and on, it should work again but with the flashing light.

Same here, flashes when something's gone awry, re-starting the sequence fixes it.
When it flashes it shows it's browned out
Basically so when your rc plane falls out the sky you know why... You ran out of range/lost reception.
Just ran Binky's 3.6kg disc on a 4S lipo as a preliminary test... Its F****** TERRIFYING! And if its like that on 4S I hate to think what 10S will take it to!
Though there are some problems. The mounts for the disc rub on the uprights of the chassis but that will be solved with some thrust bearings.
It also shakes like crazy for some reason... no idea why but we will have to find out.
PS: I have videos but as my father is rather enjoying keeping the design a secret I don't think they will be going up... well not until the night before the competition just to psych-out his opponents.
if it shakes like crazy on 4s, it will get exponentialy worse at 10s.... sounds like your disc isnt balanced.
It was CNC'd by Kenny so knowing his skills it should be balanced. One tooth is chamfered left nad the other right. Would that do it?
potentially... and just because its been CNC'd doesnt make it instantly perfectly balanced.
Spin it by hand on a bearing, let it stop naturally, mark the lowest point when it stops, repeat.... if it keeps landing in the same spot.... its out of balance...
When you spin it up on 10s stand well back... could be dangerous if it shakes itself upside down etc.
We did that (Admittedly for fun) when we got it; just spinning by hand it on its shaft and it always just stopped and it does that now.
Is it possible for a disc to be balanced in the plane of rotation but not on its axis? As the edge of the disc viably shifts about 1mm back and forth as we rotate it.
And I was inside when I did the spin today but I still feel I should have clamped it down to something :uhoh:
Has it been heat treated? Could be warped... Just see how bad it is, if you can still drive it I wouldn't worry for now.
And yeah bolt it down next time... If you see my YouTube, 360s first spin up the robot had a large industrial container weighing it down, and 720 got bolted in my vice in my workshop.
I think you should test it on 10s, and not bolt it down. Oh and film it.....
For technical help.... yes that's why.... :roll:
