Floaty Flights???

I imagine that weight plays a factor in this. Obviously a heavier quad will be less floaty than a lighter quad but I've seen people with 250 quads that get some real impressive inverted hangtime. It just looks like a 250 quad with the floaty-ness of a 150 quad. I've messed around with different settings but my floaty-ness just isn't what I think it should be. Maybe I'm wrong..hard to tell, lol. What kinds of things do you guys do to get floaty inverted hangtime?

Biggest thing with floaty time is having airmode on and props running at a good speed when at zero throttle.

Yes with airmode the motors spin when armed and at zero throttle...

Airmode.....i love Airmode. Maybe my Min Throttle is too low. I'll play with it

Airmode , when you see low spool level, you up it by 10 to 20 points. Only thing that might affect it is weight?

Yes, I fully believe that weight plays a part in getting that "floaty-ness"....no doubt! I'll experiment with raising my Min Throttle a bit. I think I have it set to 1030ish on my 3 mini's. Thanks for your time, guys!
