      @Varunlal,

      First off we need some information about your setup:

      1) What navigation controller are you using?

      2) What is the firmware version?

      3) What is the make and model of your ESC?

      Regards,

    @oceangis,

    Yes, the APM2.6 can control the throttle on an ESC designed for brushed motors without any modifications.

    I used an APM with brushed ESCs on my 4WD Slash rovers until I switched to brushless motors and ESCs.
