Matrice 100 Uncontrollably spins

[Matthewsw1234]

So I have recently purchased a matrice 100 with dual battery and the guidance system. I think its great and it fits what I need perfectly besides payload applications. I have noticed a big problem though, the drone has problems spinning. When turning right, I can hear it struggling, and left it sounds normal. I tried using one battery instead of two and the problem is still there. When I land it I can feel that the matching motors on the front right and back left are significantly hotter and I mean hot, not warm. I thought that maybe the 3* fasteners are the problem so I swapped them for the 0* and as expected the drone got even worse because the leverage to fight the spinning was taken away. I tried different props and it's still there. I have recalibrated everything and the problem still persist. Its not causing huge problems but I plan on having this drone up for maybe an hour for developing search and rescue applications and I'm worried the motors will overheat. But seriously when I mean hot to the touch I mean it. I removed the weight and rebalanced it and still the problem persist. The drone is constantly fighting itself. Any help will be appreciated as I would hate if this purchase was a dud. Again I'm worried because of the heat, but also my battery life is greatly reduced from what its supposed to be plus the random uncontrolled spins.

Thanks!

I can see that 2 of the motors are constantly working harder than the other 2 to keep it straight.

It sounds like you are encountering a significant issue with your Matrice 100 drone. The overheating motors and reduced battery life are cause for concern.

I guess I’m mainly just trying to figure out why. I might try and completely rebuild it to see if that fixes the issue but I was trying not to do that. I have noticed that the heavier the payload is, the more the spinning gets worse when full throttle of a little bit of wind. The drone gets sent off balance pretty easily even though I have balanced the battery placement.
