So i just bought a PNP race quad not too long ago and a Spektrum SPM4650 receiver to pair it with and I'm having issues getting it up and running. When i plug the drone in to a battery, i get the first 3 beeps, but i do not get the following low and high beeps. I got an arm switch set up through betaflight however when i flip it, i do not get the low high beeps, instead it stays quiet until i move my throttle up and down. When i do that, only one or two of the motors are doing the low high beep and they rev up and down on their own. Then the thing just sits there with some motors beeping and some revving up and down with no input from me whatsoever. I did some more digging and tried to calibrate the ESC's through betaflight, however when i plug the battery in, they do not do the "program" tone, instead they do the same thing. I have looked all over and have no clue what to do. I am familiar with flying quads, however this is the first one that ive gotten which requires me to do soldering, betaflight programming, etc. I thought a PNP would be a good start since it requires some soldering and tweaking but this has been a nightmare. Also apologies if the explanation is terrible, i just do not know any other way to describe it and i cant post a video. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
