Issues HEXA copter motor

Posted by Andreas Karlsson on January 14, 2012 at 9:21am

Hello all!

I am all new at this since i just finished building my first arducopter Hexa :)

The issue i experience is that when trying to fly one motor stops? all motors starting up and spinning fine and when increasing throttle in order to lift one motor stops? (it is the motor connected to #4)

Could this be the ESC? all of them is calibrated and seems fine but the one stopping when the rev is getting higher?

All connections is soldered (PDB-->ESC-->Motor) and hexa checked ;)

Have a nice evening :)

BR Andreas

    Next to the already bad junction, the easiest way is to check is to connect the concerned esc + motor directly to the receiver and test if you can go all throttle up with this configuration.

     

    I had something very similar very recently. Suddenly it disappeared. I believe it was a bad connection.

    You have a junk solder joint somewhere or your battery can't supply what is requested.
