<img style="max-width:100%;" src="https://uavlab.spyd.com/sites/default/files/img\_20110910\_103637.jpg=test] I have rebuilt RD13 from the ground up trying to use the remains of ARDi, and when it was ready to go, I realized, the only props I have for the Roxxy motors, are 10 inch, since the max prop size for this air-frame is 8 inch, I had to start over. I then removed the MK IC2 ESCs and Robbe Roxxy motors and installed my standard 30 amp ESCs with Hacker Style Motors, I then installed an AfroI2C ESC Converter, the Tokyo Drift Model, and re-installed the MK FC. After painstakingly calibrating and configuring the ESCs to use the Tokyo Drift, It will not fly. I am starting to suspect that my mk FC is damaged, and sure enough upon inspection, the Baro looks damaged. This could mean that the FC is toast. My Next step is to try installing the MK Clone FC in its place and see if it flies then, if it does not, It could mean that the Tokyo Drift is cooked.
