Tricopter

i am having troble with my tricopter insta flipping on take off

You probably have the esc signal wires plugged into the wrong ports.

 

[bestreno]

the motors spin right

 

[HawkMan]

which way does it spin ? have you calibrated the ESC's through the controller ? have you calibrated the ACC ? What controller is it ? What motors are there? if you remove the props and test it inside, to the motors start at the same time ? does everything appear to compensate the correct way when you tilt it around inside without props ?

 

[bestreno]

motors spin counterclockwise i have calibratated the ACC but not the escs It is a dx6i it does compensate right without props

 

[RichB]

So if you tip one arm downwards, that motor will speed up?

 

[bestreno]

no because self leaveling is off on my kk2
how do i turn it on

 

[RichB]

My question has nothing to do with self-leveling.

With motors spinning, any arm that you push downwards should speed up. That is the most basic point of a flight controller's existence and has to do with stabilization, not leveling.

So, if you force it to roll left, the left arm should speed up. Force it to roll right and the right arm should speed up.

Pitch it forward and the front motors should speed up.

Pitch it backward and the tail motor should speed up.

Are these things happening or not?

 

[bestreno]

yes that does happen but the motors don't star evenly

 

[RichB]

Motors not starting evenly doesn't mean anything.

Are your props identical or do you have a mix of left and right props?

 

[bestreno]

identical

 

[bestreno]

the props are identical

 

[bestreno]

good talk

 

[HawkMan]

Well he hasn't calibrated the ESCs so it means something.

Do a kk2 ESC calibration first. Then do a spin up test inside to see how it behaves without props.
