Hello sir, thanks for your video! The problem i have right now is that the motors keep beeping every 2 seconds and I'm not able to calibrate the ESC's any way possible. Further explanation below: I have trouble calibrating the ESC’s so I can get the motors running. The steps im doing are: 1- Flight controller (FC) is connected to the computer thru USB and battery is plugged in, motors are beeping. 2- Click the Calibrate ESC button in Mission planner under mandatory hardware dropdown on setup section. I’ve tried Normal, Oneshot and Oneshot 125. 3- Disconnect Battery and usb from FC 4- Connect the FC to the computer thru usb again 5- The FC is ON and the ESC is off since the Battery is disconnected from the PDB (should the -,+,s cables be connected or disconnected?) 6- I disable the safety switch holding the “switch” button on the GPS until the red light is solid (immediately after plugged in switch light is solid so i hold it till it blinks and then till is solid again, if i let it solid since the begging it doesn’t work either) 7- Arm the drone in the transmitter corresponding switch (I’ve even tried 8- Put throttle at maximum position 9- Plug in the battery The problem is from step 4 on. After this, I understand that I should be hearing 2 beeps from the ESC registering maximum throttle and then I put throttle at minimum so the ESC can read the lowest throttle. However, instead of the ESC, only the motor start beeping every 2 seconds or less. The compass light is either yellow blinking twice every second like shown in the video OR alternating between green, red and blue. In both cases the switch red light on the compass is solid right after plugging it in. In the second occasion (when blinking in 3 colors) the FC would make a long beep immediately after plugged into the computer thru USB but it would not connect to mission planner at first try displaying a “no heartbeat packet received” popup or simply the connection failed one that in the details says “the semaphore timeout period has expired” and a bunch of other stuff i have a picture of. When I try again unplugging and plugging back thru USB connection is no longer displaying the red blue and green light but the yellow one again. The MOT_PWM_MAX and MOT_PWM_MIN values are within the range reflected on the Radio calibration section; right now they are 960 and 1960 and in the radio calibration max and min are 988 and 2008. These values used to be 1000 and 2000 on the ESC calibration section but didn’t work either. The transmitter is ON and it connects to the receiver every time no problem during the whole process. I calibrated the radio before doing this too. I don’t know how to set manual mode which Is something I think I should do between step 5 and 6. I do it in Stabilize mode instead, but Im not sure if that is the problem. If I do this right, the next step would be test the motors on the Motor test section under Optional Hardware dropdown on Setup section, right? Before doing this I tried to test the motors right after calibrating the radio and it didn’t work. I got a popup window saying “action stopped by autopilot” now When I try it only makes the two sounds at the end of the video when I click “Test all in sequence” and “Stop all motors” buttons. •Flight controller: Pixhawk 6C •Power Distribution Board : PM07 •Motors: T-motor store.tmotor.com/h5/#/product?id=939 •ESC: DH 60A 2-6S Waterproof Brushless ESC Electronic Speed Controller with 5V/6V 8A BEC and X60 a.co/d/7qHXerv •GPS: MN8 •Transmitter: Radiomaster XT12 ELRS •Receiver: Radiomaster RP1 I have been using ardupilot ESC calibration website as reference but no success.

Hello friend..I too have this problem..did you find a solution to this one if yes then may you please tell me ...I am having difficulties in doing the calibration...it's not calibrating but arming is done .
Radio calibration get no green in the UI, where it's supposed to have green bars that indicate the positions of the controls, and in the end I get this message "Bad channel 1 input, cancelling".
Hi, the problem i have now is the arm/disarm button on the mission planner don't do anything. I tried to use mavproxy command and get ACK Accepted but it seems the mavproxy message don't get sent to the pixhawk
Thanks for your vidieo and your advices and now my quad corpter testing flying but the corpter do not fly up straight up. One edge of the corpter nose down and crashed.How can I fix it? Pls. @@DiyDot3d
@@sawthomassawthomas0507 May be you are flying in acro mode.i suggest set mode to angle and fly.do sensor calibration again.if its calibrated properly it will level copter while flying
Hi bro I'm doing project on drone at first i have used the Arducopter the issue i was faced is that it was not stable it was lifting up vertically but while lifting vertically it was moving right and left without any movement in direction channels and now I'm using Pixhawk flight controller and the Same issue i am facing with Pixhawk also. So please can you help me in stabilization of drone using Pixhawk
मैंने सारे पैरामीटर्स का कैलिब्रेशन कर लिया है लेकिन फिर भी मेरा ड्रोन आम नहीं हो रहा है बिना यूएसबी केबल के वह ऑन नहीं हो रहा है तो सर मैं उस में क्या सुधार करो प्लीज मुझे बता
Sir please meri ek help kare Mera drone Jo APM 2.8 per banaa hai main jab use USB lagakar program karta hun tab vah arm ho jata hai lekin jab USB hatakar battery lagata Hun to aaram nahin hota ismein kya problem hai aur jab arm hota hai to sirf teen motor hi chalti Hain ek motor beep ki awaaz karti hai sar please meri yah problem solve kar den please

Thank you so much❤
What happen if connected pixhawk to lipo battery and at the same time micro USB??
Hello sir, thanks for your video!
The problem i have right now is that the motors keep beeping every 2 seconds and I'm not able to calibrate the ESC's any way possible.
Further explanation below:
I have trouble calibrating the ESC’s so I can get the motors running. The steps im doing are:
1- Flight controller (FC) is connected to the computer thru USB and battery is plugged in, motors are beeping.
2- Click the Calibrate ESC button in Mission planner under mandatory hardware dropdown on setup section. I’ve tried Normal, Oneshot and Oneshot 125.
3- Disconnect Battery and usb from FC
4- Connect the FC to the computer thru usb again
5- The FC is ON and the ESC is off since the Battery is disconnected from the PDB (should the -,+,s cables be connected or disconnected?)
6- I disable the safety switch holding the “switch” button on the GPS until the red light is solid (immediately after plugged in switch light is solid so i hold it till it blinks and then till is solid again, if i let it solid since the begging it doesn’t work either)
7- Arm the drone in the transmitter corresponding switch (I’ve even tried
8- Put throttle at maximum position
9- Plug in the battery
The problem is from step 4 on.
After this, I understand that I should be hearing 2 beeps from the ESC registering maximum throttle and then I put throttle at minimum so the ESC can read the lowest throttle. However, instead of the ESC, only the motor start beeping every 2 seconds or less. The compass light is either yellow blinking twice every second like shown in the video OR alternating between green, red and blue.
In both cases the switch red light on the compass is solid right after plugging it in. In the second occasion (when blinking in 3 colors) the FC would make a long beep immediately after plugged into the computer thru USB but it would not connect to mission planner at first try displaying a “no heartbeat packet received” popup or simply the connection failed one that in the details says “the semaphore timeout period has expired” and a bunch of other stuff i have a picture of.

Hi ,will check and get back to you 🙂

Radio calibration
get no green in the UI, where it's supposed to have green bars that indicate the positions of the controls, and in the end I get this message "Bad channel 1 input, cancelling".
Now have you been solved this problem ? I also have face with the same problem
@@sawthomassawthomas0507 which problem
In radio calibration the screen do not show green there is only gray blank@@001aman
i also had this issue you guys need to enable ppm output from your transmitter
Hi, the problem i have now is the arm/disarm button on the mission planner don't do anything. I tried to use mavproxy command and get ACK Accepted but it seems the mavproxy message don't get sent to the pixhawk
we can not hear you. can you increase your voice in upcoming videos?
In mission planner the radio calibration screen is not showing green there is only gray blank .How to solve it? Please!
Hi.please check the receiver to the pixhawk connections make sure you connect correctly.all the best.

Try with new firmware and do proper calibration.

Check motor connection soldering.and also check other esc .may be problem with motor or ESc
