Vibration Measurements on the APM

[HowDoIfly]

This is my output

That';s not a "high" z reading, it';s the scale. You measure the vibes by subtracting the maximum lowest from the maximum highest. ie, you';d need to zoom into the graph more but I would guess you';ve got a high of 10.3 and a low of 9.7 so your z vibes is appx 0.6 and I';d guess that was due to a landing so can be safely ignored for flying purposes. ie, the rest of the graph looks like you have very low vibes to me.

Ran mine today, mounted on foam with double sided foam tape,  struggling with alt hold.

Verdicts?

My solution to vibration dampening is to use four 1/4" by 1/2" double squares of moon gel between the top mounting plate of my F450 and an extra F450 top plate. The extra top plate floats on the moon gel. The APM 2.6 FC is mounted to the extra top plate with 1/2" square gyro pads in each corner. This seems to work well. I was concerned about the plate moving during pitching and rolling maneuvers, but it doesn';t appear to be a problem.
