I've been struggling with this for months now. I don't really spend a lot of time on it cause I don't have much time for mess with crap that doesn't work right but I haven't been able to get this right yet. Last night I was loading diff param files and it would just go beep beep beep beep beep constantly when I turned it on, it would let me arm it but just keep beeping but finally after like 3 do overs I got it so it doesn't beep anymore like that. but then I had a problem with it not taking off. I would throttle all the way up and it won't lift off the ground. I was reading online how sometimes the throttle max gets set to 80 and needs to be changed to 1000 but my value was already at 1000 so I changed it to 2000 and that seemed to make more power but it still wouldn't lift. So I donno. All propellers are the correct way and motor order is correct. I'd like to know how I can make more power for throttle cause I think maybe it's not getting enough. I calibrate my radio like everytime and I've done the ESC all at once calibration so many times and they do spin all at the same time. It seems like it wants to lift off cause I see the arms pull upward and sometimes the legs lift off the ground like a mm or 2 real quick. SO I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT different paremiters or settings can be adjusted that can increase throttle. I noticed there's a paremiter that says throttle trim and it's set to 570 or something like that, what's that do? I was looking at other peoples paremiters and they have a throttle trim of like 260 or whatever. ALSO, I noticed that when I would arm it and throttle it it would say failsafe and my beeper would beep on mission planner screen but I changed the voltage from 13.5 down to 11 in the failsafe part and now I think it doesn't do that anymore. I thought that was weird cause I had disabled all the failsafes so I was thinking why is this failsafe message happening but I guess you can't turn off that voltage failsafe just turn the voltage down?
