So I have this weird problem where while idling in flight, my Tello starts spinning randomly.
The spins range from about 45 degrees to multiple 360s before it stabilizes. The spins are random and inconsistent, from what I can tell always clockwise. When it does multiple 360s, it spins REALLY fast.
It recovers itself to it's original orientation after it stops spinning.
I did replace M4 recently which is clockwise with motor (8520) 8.5 x 20mm shaft 1.0mm (weight: 5gr) (35000rpm at 3V). I know it's not a Tello motor but I didn't have a choice.
I've ordered Tello motors from Aliexpress but they are not arriving anytime soon.
It did an occasional 180 during flight but I blamed it on sensors. Yesterday it crashed on concrete and it's doing these multiple 360s ever since.
My question is, is the new motor causing this or is the problem somewhere else?
