Sea Duck pulls to the right

[Owen!]

I am 11 years old and this is my first post. I built a Sea Duck and tried to fly it today but it crashed. The left motor is stronger than the right motor. when I power it up on the ground it just spins around. Can anyone suggest how to fix it? Thanks! (Here is a photo of us trying to figure it out.)

The videos aren't showing up for me,
Have you calibrated your ESC's yet?

I am sorry I couldn’t figure out the videos.
I am not sure how to calibrate the escs

To calibrate your ESC's the first thing you want to do is remove the props. Turn on your radio and set the throttle to full. After that, with the props off, plug in your plane battery. You should hear a few beeps coming from the ESC's, after you hear the beeps pull the throttle stick back down to the bottom. That's pretty much it.

Did you have any luck getting even thrust?

I haven't gotten a chance yet but. thanks!

The other thing to check is if you have the correct props on or are set up with the counter-rotation that Josh talks about in the video. I made that mistake when I first built mine; I had two props of the same type on, and one was pushing and the other was pulling when I'd throttle up, causing it to flat spin almost immediately on the runway.

Missed you out there today! Hope you got your seaduck dialed in and you can go out soon.

Beautiful build, I wish I was that handy when I was 11 years old! Don't be discouraged; figuring out the gremlins is half of the fun of building your own machines!

Welcome to the forums😄 really nice plane👍. I agree with @sprzout I would check your props and make sure there turning opposite directions.

did you get the plane working?

Welcome to the forums and the hobby. I built the duck just recently and have it entered into a competition, you might like it for inspiration...

I do not understand what it is.

Thanks

If that hasn’t worked contact flite test support, I’ve had the same problem with flite test equipment and they’ve replaced the motor at fault free of charge
