sorry I missed some days on here. The frame you got is know for generating and amplifying vibration, as it was pointed out on the video I posted in the Pipo thread. It works fine with some controllers, and with others it mess every thing up. I am not shooting your frame down, and it may work perfectly for you, but just remember the video I posted if you do see weird things. Grab yourself some wood and build a frame ....it's easy, then use it as a comparison to other frames. Just for info, all my controllers are mounted directly onto my frames, and remember that every thing should be well balanced to eliminate any vibrations. Balance the props, mount them and balance them again with the motor. On bigger quads balancing is not so critical, but once you go small balancing is very important. That is just from my experience.
O and here is the link to the
video again ...

The way I do mine:
1 balance props normal way.
2 mount prop to motor, and mount motor to test bench
3 run motor carefully from bench power and servo tester
4 if vibrations are there, add some weight to one side ...if vibrations is higher, it was the wrong side.
Tape is easy to apply for fast checking, but tape tends to come off. What I do is to "remove" weight from the other side ...I first add weight until I know exactly where the problem is, then start removing weight from the opposite side. That is the way I do it, there are many other ways to do it I think.
