Tõnis replied to Tõnis's discussion APM 2.7 baseb multicopter won't lift off in ArduCopter User Group
"Yes, 3 kgs is the actual payload and I recalibrated the radio as well. Under 60 Amps I meant in total, which means 15 Amps per ESC.I will try bigger propellers and higher pitch first, hopefully it will get it flying but most likely I will have to…"

Hey, I changed the frame of my quadcopter and due to that the weight increased to nearly 3 kgs. During this I changed the motors and battery from 3S to 4S. Now, by the motor datasheet the copter should have enough lift to take off but with max…

Tõnis replied to Tõnis's discussion Motors turn at uneven rate, APM, ESC or ...? in ArduCopter User Group
"Just started to recalibrate my radio endpoints and it seems that when I center the pitch stick then it swings between values 1484 and 1476, yaw and roll are between 1475 or 1474. Could this be the reason? "

"Crash was due to human error, I flew close to buildings, lost the gps signal and crashed it into a nearby building. It came down from about 2-3 m but luckily fell on its legs. I replaced some motors but it had no effect, some of them are still…"

"Thanks for the ideas. I will have to check the motors in the evening. Could this explain also why some PWM values stay high up after acceleration? Just like there was a delay or something. One thought was that it could be a software issue with very…"

Hey,Having problems with different rpm values on the motors even after the ESC's are calibrated and APM is  levelled. The problem first occurred after my last crash and at first I thought that the problem was in ESCs. As the frame was a bit damaged…

Tõnis replied to Tõnis's discussion Problem with ESC calibration in ArduCopter User Group
"Hey, The same problem came along after a crash. The frame was a bit broken so I bought a new one, X4 instead of previous Y6 and put the copter back together. Loaded new firmware to APM and recalibrated the ESC's just in case. Now the problem that…"

Everything is working correctly and the ESC-s do not get hot at all. Problem solved :)"

"It seems that it is working now after I programmed the esc as you reccommended!I will try to take off and have a test flight to be sure but at the moment everything seems to be good.

Thank you very much!"

"Thanks! I will try to do as you reccommended. How can I change the value for Motor spin on arm speed, I could not find it on the parameters list?"

"Thanks for your response. 

I followed your instructions but still no change, the dfifference is about 200 at full throttle and at one point one of the motors stopped completely. "
