I have not changed anything, but have crashed several times. The last one was very hard...
First time poster, BTW. This has been a great forum to learn.
DJI 450 ARTF kit, so the 2212 motors and DJI 30a ESC. Pixhawk controller and a Turnigy remote with fresh batteries.
I have updated and reloaded the firmware, and tried "calibrating" the ESC's before I read that they're not calibratable <?> so I don't know if I messed anything up. The motor test works but only if I set the speed to about 12%. And yes, I calibrate the remote too all with the Mission Planner software.
When I arm the copter the motors begin spinning at about that 12% with throttle zero. It will fly but is unstable (more untrimmed) and the main thing is, the pitch down flies backwards and pitch up (stick back) flies forward.
What am I doing wrong? I'm afraid to turn anything (failsafe triggers, missions) over to the GPS because this thing is costing me constant money for props, legs, GPS mounts, etc.!
