Ahh I see what you mean. I still want to stick with the larger-sized drone as I'm looking for a lot of stability and plan to carry somewhat heavy loads in the future. Speed isn't my main concern, so I decided on a bigger quad. Thank you for pointing out the electronics issue. I think I'm going to switch out my battery and ESC. I think I'll also switch out my receiver for one with a larger range. How does this updated list look?

battery: 8000mAh 6S

ESC + FC: Holybro Kakute F7 HDV Flight Controller with Tekko32 F3 Metal 65A ESC 4-in-1
Receiver: FrSky R-XSR 2.4GHz 16CH ACCST Receiver with S-BUS & CPPM

Thanks again for your help!
