I bet you all know this one! I have just hooked up my Li-Po battery to my newly-built Quad. I am using a Spektrum DX6i transmitter. I have done the bind to the receiver. Upon Li-Po connection, there are some beeps, then a blue light on the control board starts flashing. I turn on the transmitter and the receiver lights orange. Blue light on board continues flashing. Can't get props spinning with transmitter levers. Triple-checked all wiring and plugs. Any ideas what I should do to activate my machine?

 

Thanks

    Does the LED flash 10 times and turn off? If yes, it mean u r in the setup mode (reversing gyros). Try to put all the pots in the middle and try again. It should works. 

    Btw, are you aware of the arming process?

    Have you calibrated all your ESCs yet?  You should calibrate each one as per its instructions, individually while hooked up directly to the receiver.  After that, plug them in with the KK board normally and try again.

    Hello Andrew,

     

    Have you tried lowering the trim on the throttle?

     

    Have you checked that the throttle channel is not reversed?

     

    Regards

     

    Martin.
