Quad Quad lifts and pitches to the right. Slides on the floor for the most part.

I configured everything in Openpilot. I used default values and did not use any of the profiles available.

Motors spin RF CCW, LF CW, RR CW, LR CCW
Props are on correctly check a dozen times. Air flows down under each motor.

As I give it throttle it looks to be attempting to lift but seems to be struggling and then begins to slide/move to the right.

What can cause this.

I'm using a FS-Ct6B Transmitter.


I do have a question about OpenPilot.
When going through the config and you are at the part that you plug in the battery and listening for the beeps. How long is that period? Is it setting up each ESC? Can I maybe not b letting it finish the sequence?

Just not sure when its done to move on and save the config.

I appreciate the help. I'm close I can feel it....

In the esc set up menu
When you plug in the battery, it will make a "diddle dee" noise.
You'll see the value on the screen read 1900 i think.
Then press stop, and that value will drop to 900.
Thats it, you can move on to the next step.

As for the drifting, make sure in the flight data menu, the quad shows level on the screen, when your quad is on a flat surface.
If not, go into the Attitude menu and press level.

When plugging in the battery to fly, always make sure the quad is level, and don't touch it or move it for 10 seconds.

If it still drifts slightly, place some card under the feet on the side its drifting towards, and redo the level quad in attitude.
This will help to counter the drift.
This can also be done by adjusting the Accel bias menu, but it easier with card :D
