All sensors are working as they should but! the values from the motors are very strange.
The boards are on my de

Dear Friends,
I have a problem when setup ArduPilot.
When the mode is moved to stabilize or fly by wire A, the throttle is always spinning fast and can not be controlled. I try to do debug in mode 8 (from Jason), and I see the value of Throttle always
