Gday, purchased a brand new Air 65 race spec (the 2025 refresh with the 5 in 1 board) and out of the box im having an issue where the throttle power feels inconsistent and the motor are making a stuttering/fluttering sound when power is applied. The quad tends to fly very inconsistently, usually shooting up quickly or at an angle, and occasionally I get motor runaway errors in the goggles. Its not flyable in its current state
Everything looks like its connected ok, I haven't touched pids/rates at all in betaflight (literally just took it out of the box and stuck a battery on), and there's no noticeable damage to the frame/props (brand new quad)
I found this thread on reddit that said potentially overtightened canopy screws might cause this, so I tried backing off the canopy screws, but that hasn't helped either

Props are all on in the right orientation, motor directions are correct, the motors sound fine when I spin them in betaflight, its just when I try fly the problem is present
I tried reflashing the escs, lowering the esc pwm frequency, and resetting all the betaflight settings using the betafpv dump but no luck. Ive got it flying by using default pids but it feels odd that the betafpv tune is so busted
