holtneil, Here is how i got them right now:

Hey holtneil, But it's all exactly as supposed to be when looking at pictures and instructions above.

Just to be on the safe side, here is a written description of what i have right now on the quad, in relation to the picture above: 1. The front right prop is a CCW type, the motor attached to it is spinning CCW and it is connected to the black,red.white wires - which is channel number 1 and the...

OK - Now i got the FC channel wires and props CW,CCW and motor directions and ESC's 3 bullet connectors to motors - All exactly as indicated above and shown in pictures - and now i have a non flipping situation, but not in a good sense - the quad just sits there like a solid rock, even if...

When i connect them in the order you mention and seen in the picture above - i get 3 motors turning CW and only 1 CCW..

Here is a video of the phenomenon, you can see i am pushing the throttle stick up 3 times - and letting it back down every time - since i already know it ends up in a flip at the direction it starts tilting in the video. That is, i don't want to push the throttle any further and damage the props...

Quest, i'v already gone through an FC reset and then went through the Mission Planner wizard again.

Sorry RENOVER8R, Yes - the motors are spinning in the right direction and the CW and CCW propellers, all exactly as in this picture:

As much as i understand, the quad is balanced well enough - this is not the issue. i'v just tied a rope from the middle of the axis and the quad is balanced well enough. The battery is placed symmetrically in all directions in relation to the center of the quad axis. It is not a center of...

i'll try checking out the center of gravity issue more thoroughly and let you know if it changed anything. i'm almost sure it is not the issue - since i tried to move the 3S 5800mAh 450 grams battery, in the other way of flipping direction - almost 15 cm set-off and still the quad tried to flip...

What is the best way to balance the center of gravity or to find out if i have a big problem with it being off ? Isn't current flight controller technology supposed to be able to compensate for small gravity center miss-alignments?

How can i identify the correct header? i got here 2 yellows, 2 blues, 1 green, 1 orange, 1 black and 1 Futaba black,red,white connector...when i connect them. some headers won't make the motor move at all and some will - there are too many combinations...

Quest, yes it the PixFalcon from HobbyKing - do you think this might be the reason? OK - Now that i'v gone through ESC firmware upload again and calibrated the ESC's - all done on the ESC's one by one - i'm kind of lost, since i still get a sideways flipping, instead of a symmetrical take...

Thanks.

One of the motors starts spinning later than the rest of them - could that indicate about the reason for flipping problem i have? What should i do if this indicates about the problem? re-calibrate the magnetometer? go through the one-by-one ESC calibration process? Here are the ESC model i am...

Holtneil, i wonder if i did not calibrate the ESC's well. i hope that what's described in the following video, which is calibrating the ESC's one by one when not connected to the flight controller, is what actually i did not do, although, i did calibrate all 4 esc's and motors, when everything...

Hello! i have built an Ardu-quad-copter around the HobbyKing PixFalcon flight controller. i'v made a serious effort to try to learn how to calibrate the drone using Mission Planner and tried all possible CW and CCW combinations - Yet the quad-copter just stays in place or flips on its side -...

Hey Jackson, Yup - have already made that part of the learning curve, in the last couple of hours, and have installed the Deviation FW. Yet, still not able to bind to the orange RX. On the help forum at Deviation - but still to no avail up to this moment, also checking out the possibility that...

Hello! I got right out of the box a new Devention Devo 7E. As well, i have an Orange RX DSM2 receiver and a servo and a battery. I would like to learn how to bind them together - but i am having trouble understanding what i should do on the Devo side. In most Devo video tutorials, the menu looks...
