Hello, 

I just bought a ArduCopter from DIY DRONES an assembled one and was trying to get it to fly. Although i did take some time to get it to know it,i calibrated everything as in the PDF and armed it and had the Quad Copter take off to a certain height. But it was moving right and i was looking at what to do to get it stable and then across this Flight Report & Settings form that came with the ArduCopter kit and it had a set of values listed as stable and tested under the category UAV Settings. So even i changed the values that were already there and when i switched on the Radio with throttle down, no input whatsoever it flipped on the spot with all propellers upside down and 2 of them broke and a plastic mount of one of the motors is broken as well. I managed to get the plastic mount glued and i will order for a new pair of props but what did i do wrong?? Was i not supposed to change the Values?? It was mentioned in the form that they had flown my Arducopter before it was shipped on the same settings which is why i changed.

I had tried contacting Customer support earlier but no one reached out to me. I hope at least this time somebody would. I asked for a contact number last time and even that was not responded to. Please could somebody Skype and help me or on chat is also okay. 

regards,

Preetham.
