    My quad stopped working and I don't know why.

    I reflashed my ESCs and tested each one by one, one motor didn't spin so I swapped the ESCs and found that the motor was broken. So I replaced that. I still can't seem to produce enough thrust to take off though and it wants to tip over all the time rather than take off, I thought it was a trim...

    My quad stopped working and I don't know why.

    Got back from Germany now and tried calibrating my ESCs through the KK2 again but they still don't seem to spin the motors correctly, the light flicker and there is no linear increase in power. The props never reach a high enough speed to lift. I don't know what else to try, do simonk ESCs...

    Yes, they rotate in the correct direction. I will try the KK calibration again once it stops raining here.

    My quad stopped working and I don't know why.

    I calibrated my ESCs directly off of the receiver. The assistant shows good values and I even tried increasing the gain on the throttle on the KK2.1.5. The throttle doesn't seem to advance much probably from 0-25% from 0-100% on the stick, but it seems to be linear across the range. I did have...

    My quad stopped working and I don't know why.

    I haven't tried any other props but it flew with the 12" props with the old ESCs also rated at 30A. Also by my maths a 12" prop should use 21A on my 690kV motors at full throttle which is well within the ratings of my motors and ESCs. I also want to be clear that it isn't struggling to take off...

    My quad stopped working and I don't know why.

    Hi, I am new to the forum and to quads but am fairly experienced with electronics. I have a x700 homebuilt quad which originally used post feb 2014 turnigy multistar 30A ESCs. These flew ok but felt laggy (might have been me but I like to try to improve things). I attempted to flash one with...
