HMF S550 Hexacopter ESC Wire Trim and Flight

In this video I attempt to slightly increase flight time on my S550 Hexacopter by removing the excess wires and bullet connectors on the motor and ESC connections. The project saved nearly 100g of weight and really cleaned up the look of the arms. Overall flight time only increased slightly, but there's an obvious difference in feel and throttle at hover dropped from about 60% to right at 50%. I've also included demonstration of the Craft and Theory telemetry setup as well as my GoodLuckBuy 3-axis gimbal with Tilt control adjustment running through the Pixhawk using the UART port on the Storm32 board. Leave a comment if you have any questions or if you have suggestions for future, more detailed videos about the configuration and setup.
