That sounds like a mixer on your tx is misconfigured.

1. Recallibrate ESCs as per the wiki
2. Check there are no mixers configured in your TX

First things first.  That is your Rx.  Your Tx is the big, programmable monster with sticks and a necklace.  You can control what your sticks do from there.  Take it slow.

also if you reduced your throttle response on your radio e.g half sensitivity. This would double the throttle when you calibrate in apm planner.

what does the double throttle when it's calibrated in APM mean...???? I've not understood yet

With your radio set to a normal throttle response. If you put 50% throttle, you get 50% output on the motors.

If you lower the sensitivity to 50%, then you give 50% throttle on the radio, it only gives 25% on the motors.

So your full travel is 100% on the radio, but only 50% on the motors.

so, where should I set the sensitivity to get the real control.....?????

when I calibrate the ESC with my radio, it sounds the throttle gives real signal to the ESC, it's known motors showing  the real speed rotation, but when I put the radio to APM, it's not real like when I calibrated the ESC
