Correct and Incorrect Control Surface Movement
6.12.3 Confirming ESC Endpoints are set Correctly (Multirotor only)
For correct multirotor operation, all of your ESC endpoints must be set the same, so that the idle throttle
setting causes each motor to spin at the same speed, and so that the full range of your throttle is utilized by
the ESCs.
Consult the manual for your ESCs to determine how to set endpoints, and set them all the same. Endpoints
should be set before cutting ESC signal wires, as they may need to be connected to a receiver to set them.
BLHeli ESCs endpoints can be set via the MicroVector’s USB cable.
Make sure your ESC endpoints are set correctly! If they are not, the motors could spin at different
speeds, or at high speed, when armed!
6.12.4 Arming and Disarming your Multirotor (Multirotor only)
6.12.4.1 Arm and Disarm Gestures
The multirotor is armed by moving the throttle stick to the off position and holding the rudder stick in the
rightmost position for 2 to 3 seconds, until the props spin continuously. For Mode 2 radios, this is done
by simply holding the left (rudder/throttle) stick in the lower right-hand corner (the ARM corner) for
approximately 1 second.
Note that as you hold the stick(s) in the arm position, the motors will pulse or “twitch” twice
before the props will continuously spin. You must continue holding the stick(s) in the arm position
during this sequence, or the multirotor will not arm.
