    Tarot Fy680 esc calibration

    Hi CJ, assuming your using the proper esc's for your flight controller and your radio transmitter and receiver are bound, try this- With the propellors off and the power off to both hex and radio, unplug all motor servo connectors from flight controller-JUST MOTOR servo connectors. Start with...

    Newb building u580 pro, need guidance

    yup, I wasn't reading it right. Ecalc looks so different than when I last used it.

    Newb building u580 pro, need guidance

    Hi billy75, you should double check your weights, a 16000mah 4s is closer to 1600 grams, or am I not reading that right?

    Is this correct

    hold the board on the box and roll the box onto it's different sides.

    Is this correct

    hoki, try using a small box (like the size a ring would come in) when you do the cali. Hold the board on the box and turn the box on all sides to calibrate. Yes the board calibration is important, it lets the board know level in relation to the whole entire universe.

    Four BILLION Drones Sold Last Year!

    Nets are for old men, go with one of those drone killing eagles they're training. Plus you'd look badass with it perched on your shoulder rolling up to the club on the back of your bengal tiger.

    Four BILLION Drones Sold Last Year!

    That 4 billion has to be sales since there's only like 7.5 billion people on the planet Still though. Wonder how many Christmas units never made it out of the living room alive...

    Is this correct

    If they're self tightening props, you have to move the motors themselves around to have the correct thread direction (clockwise/counter clockwise) on the correct arm. pretty clean build for a newb.

    almost ready to give upboth

    Do a continuity test. The #1 motor + pin does power the board but doesn't power the rest of the + bus pins. The #2 motor does. All the pins share a common ground though. So I'd do all 3 wires on motor 1 and 2 and just signal wires on #3 and 4 (or don't mess with pulling out wires and just plug...

    Also make sure you're set to quad of some type in the kk menu and not fixed wing. In fixed wing it only supplies power to the first set of pins to avoid shorting out in a crash with the unused pins "live" exposed.

    Hi Bill, maybe try plugging in the motor to the number 2 motor pins and see if that powers the other motors. My kk board has motor 1 with all 3 (red, black, white wires)-this powers my receiver, then motor 2 has all 3 wires again-this powers the rest of the bus bar. Maybe you weren't using...

    If you're using the same esc's that were used with the naza, they won't work on the KK board. Naza uses opto esc's and the KK board needs 5v fed to it from a BEC esc. Opto's only send signal, BEC's drops your battery voltage down to usually 5v and send power to the fc. Naza goes this route...

    Please help with shakey QAV250

    or at least make sure your transmitters throttle endpoints jive with the factory setting endpoints on the esc.
