Default Very Embarrassing Lepton Shakes

OK,

I have flown this heli several times problem free. Absolutley no VIBES, shakes, blow outs, nothing. Mind you I fly sport patterns with flips and rolls.

Hear is the changes I have made since my last perfect flight:

I changed out esc's to a Hyperion esc, formally CC 60. I was also using the Power 25 e-flight motor. First off, between the esc and motor, the electric system seemed very loud and rough sounding. That is all new to me. When I lifted off into hover, the helicopter had such a shake, it was a choir just to lad it with the Hirobo Flimbsy landing gear.

I tried to adjust the gain, with no results what so ever. Nothing is bent either. Could it be the timing was off to an extreme making the pulse, or.....

Any ideas hear?

Give it a go without the canopy, I'm sure mine gets into some weird frequency vibes caused by the canopy I reckon otherwise it could very well be your main spindle not centering, either grease it more or shim it into position as is mentioned in other threads.

The Spindle can just go from being perfectly center to of center between flights? Although, The shake the helicopter is showing, resembles somthing being bent, But from what.....

I could'nt get it spooled up all the way, as the dance the heli was doing really freaked me out. Im telling you, this bird has been flying perfectly time after time.

2800rpm is pretty close to what I Run.

Have you crashed or bumped it in any way? otherwise you have probably over looked something and should go over it, something may have come loose.
