APM2.8 F450 wont lift/fly

My quad copter won't fly. I built my first quad and I have problem it won't lift off the ground.
It is made up of the following.
f450 frame
Lipo 2200 battery
APM2.8 board
SimonK ESC 30A
Sunnysky Angel Series A2212-13 980kv
1045 propeller

i already calibrated the esc, motor rotation and propeller also already confirmed, thr_max up to 1000, but still my quad wont lift at all.

any suggestion on parameter, pid setting or else?

  • im having a great fly before just until im trying to remove waving video. im mount rubber foam on my motor, and now it start to act strangely..

    once i calibrate, all looks fine

    after calibrate, i try increase the thro, and all work nicely same condition like during my calibration moments. all of it stop until i put prop.. it start to act strangely. i up the thro, sometimes on the first thro up, it will rotate, but after land position, which thro down, once i increase the thro, the motor start to act seems not enough power, then i try spam power to thro, it might rotate as normally.

    it might fly too, but after fly, the motor will be hot. any idea on what happen?

    sorry if u cant understand my explanation.

      • i try to explain clearly..i skip to calibration part

        1: i do a esc calibration, all work smootly. as indeed

        2: i try to fly the quad, but no prop, which actually want to see the rotation of motor either it doing well or not. And yes, it doing well.

        3: i put prop, it then act strangely. 1 of the motor seems not getting power. once i spam throttle power by increasing and decrease it, it might spin, sometimes might fly too. 

        4: after fly, i check motor, the motor getting hot.

        can u understand this?

              • it cant be calibrate at all too, even i set the trim down -120 on rc software

  • may i ask, just now i try the alt hold function, after my throttle increase around aprox 50%, i turn to alt hold, my quad suddenly fly up fast, is it normal? or something wrong?
