Problems with one motor speeds up at low throttle

[JacobIpsen]

Hey
i just finished my first tricopter, mountet the KK2 board
connected the ESC in the order that i understod
Left ESC = Channel 1
Right ESC = Channel 2
Rear ESC = Channel 3
YAW servo = Channel 4

But i have the following isues / Problems

1. Motor 1(Left) Spins up at low throttle,,, if i giv the throttle max all spins up , this only happens at low throttle, alle motors spin down and motor one keeps gowing and speeds up.

2. i Ordered the ESC without BEC, and have connected an UBEC to the last channel in the reciver, is thet the correct way ?

3. i have no reaction from the Servo.. .yet...

And last a Question.... when the guide says CW and CCW
is CW = Normal rotating Prop ?
and CCW = R Prop ?


Hope someone can helpe a Tri-Noob get airborn

/Best regards

Fairly normal if you haven't calibrated the esc's. You can also adjust the minimum throttle setting in the misc. setting menu. I think most people keep it around 20.

2. i Ordered the ESC without BEC, and have connected an UBEC to the last channel in the reciver, is thet the correct way ?

Usually the KK2 is powered from M1 (motor 1) port but if it's working the way you have it, it doesn't seem to be an issue.

3. i have no reaction from the Servo.. .yet...

Power to the servo comes from the M2 port (motor 2). You will need to find a way to get power to that port. Most people use an ESC with the BEC built in but you can probably just use your UBEC with a separate lead to M2

And last a Question.... when the guide says CW and CCW

Yes

Hey
THANKS for your response..

i have tryed to calibrate the ESC´s but same problem... maby i am dooing it wrong

Do you know if only M2 that can used or can any M2-8 be used to power the Servo ?

Thanks for you helt so far... i will try to calibrate the ESC again...

I just tested it since I was curious also. Any port from M2-8 will work. The board must be wired as a single buss on those ports.

hey ... i redit the ESC calibration, i must not have givent it enough time... now it seems to work..

Took an 3 pin cord and cut the white/yellow wire and connected it to Channel 7 on the reciver and to M8 and that seems to work

it seems that i am ready to fly...

THANK you so much !!!
