In part 7 of the series, I face one of my most difficult tuning challenges yet. I'm using some DYS 5x4x3 props on my QAV-R, and the props are horribly unbalanced, meaning I can't raise D gain as high as I'd like in order to control bounceback after a roll (and other issues too, but mostly that). Bounceback after a roll is usually not too hard to tune out, but this is like tuning with one prop tied behind my back.
