Hello, after a long silence i tried my build and it keeps lifting off and falling down few seconds later... Here is the video... Maybe the motor, maybe the FCB ??? i dont know...

according to hobbyking 556g which is more than half kilo.... my budget is cca 50£ for new motor... i meassured my 550 mm bumblbee frame and i can put 12" props max safely... bigger could cause problems...

Hello.. its me again... so.. I put the quad together and realised that its too heavy and dont lift off... i have 5000 mAh 4S1P battery 40C. max, AfroESC 30A, and 2212 Quanum 1000KV motors with 1047 carbon fibre props.... Maybe on one ESC flashing red LED when its 100% throttle... maybe that is...

I dont know about the motor, it looks liek it working correctly but.... maybe my gyro is callibrated badly.... and i bought a mini quad to learn how to fly (Syma X5C)....

No... I am invested a lot of effort, time and money to this quad and i will not get any toy for kids.... sorry, but it's amateurish suggestion... When i will buy a toy, i will not learn how things work in RC quadcopter building and flying world... Forget about it... Forget about USELESS...

I tried it. It made a takeoff and then flight a little bit but catch a balance or something and crash... 3 times. (maybe I panicked and put the throttle down) but not a big damage, just two prop a little bit (ordered new 5 pair) and a landing gear plastic (ordered as well)... that carbon fibre...

How should i controll a servo from my gimbal which have only tilt option??? and my radio is only 6 channel... this one http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__24714__Camera_Gimbal_Tilt_Mount_for_Bumblebee_Quadcopter_Frame.html?strSearch=gimbal%20bumbl

ok so.. maybe on my first flight i've got self level OFF so thats why it did trouble... unfortunately i haven't got flat surface anywhere (i live in england and the roads are not flat, UK houses are not flat) so unfortunately i cannot calibrate my acc correctly....my quad got odd legs (landing...

so i tried it but the left side went up and the right stayed on the ground (hopefully i didnt push it so no crash a no takeoff)... so they are not at sync... maybe it is something with afroESC...

Acctually i had min throttle on 2 but now i changed it to 10 and the motor are spinning at once together at sight... o dont know if they spinning together i cant meassure them....

so.. ive got 0 on rudder.. now the all motors spinning together ONLY AT CALIBRATION (when i holding down button 1 and 4) after i release the buttons it's like the KK boar totally forgot that it was calibrated and still the first motor spinning more than the others... i tried also calibrate each...

thats the thing... at reciever test on my rudder i have -1 or 1 or 2... and 0 only for a second where it goes back to -1... so i can't set up 0...

i have all my ESC's calibrated... everything right.. only the rudder... I just made a video about it where you can see on the output sliders menu that after releasing the rudder the motor speeds not going back to same level...

Finally i've got everything right.. the motors spinning the same (hopefuly) but i have concernes only about one thing.. the rudder is a little bit loos, when i release it it will go to it's place but the KK board showing me that it stays a little bit off place... so in real world it could stay...

so i tried to do a calibration of each ESC.. they spinned the motor but i not heard the beep or flash..... when i hold the button 1 and 4 , switched on the transmitter on max throttle the motor started to spin but no sound or flash from ESC that its OK to put the throttle to idle...
