Bought a copter from on here and want to test it but went to connect the RC transmitter/receiver I already had and found something had burnt on the receiver so it's not working :( So now I'm left waiting for a new one.
Is there any way to test? Even just spin up the motors? I have a joystick / Xbox controller if that helps any?
Hope someone can help! Thanks in advance!

if you go into CLI, you can test the direction of your motors at least - watch them spin slightly and slowly (and double check your props are spinning in the right direction)
from the wiki:

Or if you have a telemetry kit, you can use a game pad or joystick
