Arducopter Hexa problem!

Posted by Dimitar Krustev on February 5, 2013 at 11:07pm

Hello everyone. My setup is jDrones Hexa with APM2.5, 30A ECSs ,2836 motors, Spektrum AR3000 RC and TM 1000 telemetry module. The arducopter came RTF and was flying just perfect. I made a small crash and after i fixed the broken body parts and propellers everything was fine again. After a flight ending with empty battery I heard an ESC song - beep, beep, beep until i disconnected the battery then when i connect the battery the ESCs plays the usual start-up song but continues to beep,beep, beep with the APM and reciever leds off.After a few beeps everything goes OK and the leds starts again. I can't figure it out why this have changed and what does it mean. Also in the Mission Planner the vertical speed keep showing around 100m/s with the copter to the ground in static position. When i push the trottle up,the vertical speed starts to drop down. Please help. I was reading the forum articles but did not find any about my issues. Sorry about asking probably a stupid questions. I am just beginning with this great hobby and those were my first flyes ever. Thank you in advance.

Wish you great day and perfect flights

    If you have not changed any of the default settings. Try erasing everything and reload the firmware and recalibrate everything again. The APM is somewhat like Microsoft Windows and from time to time it helps to format C and reload. :)
    Goods luck and happy flying.
