The first test of the IR sensors on the actual unit. I didn’t apply my jitter eliminating code yet (I am hoping that I can) so the servos are a little jittery. The jittering will cause the most problem in throttle control. I have sensors at the top and the bottom, too, which will adjust the throttle. When I tested the throttle, the servo signal anomaly that cause the servo jittering caused the RPM swing in a range. The fan still reacted to the sensors and adjusted the throttle but not in a smooth way…

The first test was pretty good though. The video shows the nozzles react to the IR sensors’ input:
