I was just speaking, via Facebook Messenger, to Brian...the guy that inspired this build and he's telling me to "get those rates under 350 and run 50-60% expo in the transmitter." It completely slipped my mind to ask him how. He's saying that the "degrees per second" is too high.

How do I go about doing this? I won't be able to speak with Brian again until Sunday. He's going out of town.

Glad you finally got it flying Derek.
Rates for that would have to be way lower than we are used to for "normal" sized quads.
I would imagine the PIDs for something that size would have to be fairly low too.
Maybe even the loop time could go down some too (or is that up, I can't remember, whatever is slower), but that's just me thinking out loud.
It will certainly react a lot slower than anything you have flown before.

To change the degrees per second in Cleanflight, its in the PID menu under "roll rate" 'pitch rate" Derek.
