Check your motors arnet twisted (ie they are flat in relation to ground) and the motors and props are all turning in the right direction.

Good luck

I did hav same problem. At the beginning with Arducopter I strongly recommend Mission Planner. Dont forget to Level at the end.

Main problems can be:

1) distribution board - correct motor signal cable conection - dont forget that some photos of distribution board are "up side down" there, so solder cables in right direction and assemble the distribution board "up side up" - this was my issue No1

2) distribution board - same forward orientation exactly as the APM board

3) right propeller rotation

4) ESC calibration

5) Arducopter "Level" in Mission Planner - see chapter: 5)

Good luck for the deadline!
