I have done a couple of things which seem to have significantly reduced the jerk in motors. It is still there but about 90% of it is gone. I have put double layer of a thick electrical tape on top of the ESC on top of which my FC resides. I have put the receiver antenna wire in a drinking straw whic...

Try without props mounted, same behaviour? Absolutely no twitch or jerk whatsoever without props! I pulled and tugged the receiver wire and other wire connections and it did not induce a jerk.

Whenever I open the Multiwii config gui, the channels values are going all over the place. They ...
