Default Draganflyer yaw problem

I have a problem with my Draganflyer III spinning 'out of control' on certain occasions. If I fly vertically up/down it seems fine but when flying away horizontally for any distance it seems to start to spin, two of the rotors evidently speed up dramatically, throttle seems to still have effect. I've checked all the motor caps but all seem fine. Any ideas, thanks

Default RE: Draganflyer yaw problem

When flying in a direction, the downwash interacts with the rotors differently, because you're moving off the column of downwash.

I've found it not uncommon to have to make yaw corrections after/during lateral movement.
