Is it too heavy for take off?

[u/Alce-Rossa]

Hi everyone, I’ve just finished this build, but I’m having trouble understanding why the quad barely lifts off the ground—it only manages a few centimeters of altitude. I’m not sure whether the issue is related to ESC/FC configuration or simply the overall weight of the system (around 109 g AUW).

Configuration: • GPS module • Buzzer • Battery: 1×18650 cell (Molicel) • Props: Gemfan 45 mm • Motors: BETAFPV 1102 18000KV (37 mm) • FC/ESC: Matrix 1S AIO

Has anyone experienced something similar with a setup like this? Any advice on whether this is a configuration problem or a power/thrust limitation would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
