Yes, exactly this.
So I wasn't there when we actually tested the drive train, but from my understanding, it seems like we are having dinner center of gravity issues that essentially messes with it values, so we're going to wait for the elevator to be put on before we do more extensive testing and tuning. But it went reasonably well for the most part.
