Not getting full power after switching receivers??
#1
I have a marmotte with TOA 1750kv for 6S.

  I really cannot figure out how switching receivers could have effected full power.

 To make a long story short I switched receivers and put original back in and had to rebind it doing so.

  After I put the original back in and it feels and sounds like I’m flying on 4S.
  
  
 I have tried reflashing using default settings as it came from Armattan,my end points are 1000 and 2000 in betaflight receiver section but still doesn’t get the full rpm as before.



 I have exponential set up in betaflight but it has never effected full throttle before and I use the same exponential on all my drones and they don’t have this problem.In fact my other drones have throttle capped at 80% and have a much higher rpm at full throttle.

 It flies great and I can’t see any problems other than it just has no punch out power.
 
 I don’t know how switching receivers could effect power at full throttle.

   Any suggestions?

Installing a new receiver won't (and can't) have caused that. That is just a coincidence. It must be something to do with settings in Betaflight or your transmitter, or maybe a problem with the LiPo.

Lipo was my first thought too.

   I did notice in betaflight PID settings that armattan put 2 different PID settings on it and the setup I’m using the PID filters are turned off.
  I’ve tried brand new LiPo.

 

   Does adding gains using filters make motors more aggressive?

  Next time I fly I’ll try the other profiles.
  I may have switched settings by mistake.
The PID I leave on default and I only change the throttle curve and midpoint .

I think I finally figured out why I wasn’t getting full power.
I put a replacement esc in my marmotte and I didn’t flash it.
The endpoints were different and on the high side above 2000 so one esc wasn’t getting full power signal.
I’ll test it out soon when weather gets better.

I finally figured out or started getting full power.
The PID and rates settings were on switch positions.
No matter what I changed if my switches stayed in the same position I was only getting about 60% throttle.
When I finally got switches and the tuned PIDs in acro mode working together then full power was back.
