Hi everyone!

I'm trying to build my very first quadcopter and i'm finding some difficuties. I wanted to use 4 brushless motor, controlled by arduino; i've bought these materials:

-4 brushless motor 1000kV like these

(Max current 10A, 2-3Cells)

-4 Hobbyking ESCs 15-18A SS series

-Turnigy LiPo battery 5000mAh, 3S, 20C

-Arduino Uno

I use the servo library to control di ESCs, with a differente output pin for every ESC.

I have connected everything right, and if i turn on one by one every motor it's fine, but if i try to turn them on all together they turn off as i increase speed.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
