Note that position hold will hold the position but altitude hold will not. TO actually check the balance you can just hold it using one finger each underneath opposite motors and see if it tilts. Do this on each part of the opposite motors of the X. You can try also balacing on the center line of the drone main body.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 22 Apr 2020 11:27:47 GMT https://community.nxp.com/t5/HoverGames-Drone-Challenge/How-can-I-balance-the-drone-to-keep-it-from-drifting-How-much/m-p/1067996#M62 nxf58541 2020-04-22T11:27:47Z
