Motor continues spinning after disarm

I am nearing completion of a new build. I'm having a problem where after arming the copter, and throttling up, and then back down, one of the motors continues to spin. The only way to stop the motor from spinning is to remove power.

It's only one, and it's the same one all the time (motor 6, fyi).

I'm working on getting a video of it in action, but wanted to see if anyone had any ideas.

  • I have exactly the same problem as what you describe andusing the same ESC's you have. Wait for it the problem is on motor 6 as well. It wont dissarm when the rest do. I kid you not. Please send me pm with details on how you resolved your problem. Cheers Farley
  • SOLVED: Anyone else having this issue, make sure that you RESET and ERASE your EEPROM after loading a new firmware on it. Transient values in the EEPROM were to blame for the erratic behavior.

    Just to clear this up- It is NOT spinning after disarm, right? The problem is that it keeps going on low throttle, right? Have you tried disarming to get it to stop, as opposed to removing power? Either way around it, I'm sure that Raph's suggestion to calibrate ESCs will get you straight.

  • Hi there -

    try to do a manual calibration of the ESC on your motor 6
