2.4.8 Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) Calibration
Electronic speed controllers are responsible for spinning the motors at the speed
requested by the autopilot. Most ESCs need to be calibrated so that they know the
minimum and maximum PWM values that the flight controller will send. This chapter
provides instructions for calibrating ESCs.
Mark
This chapter applies ONLY to Copter setups, not Rover or Plane.
Please complete remote controller calibration before performing ESC calibration.
DANGER
Safety Check!
Before calibrating ESCs, please ensure that your copter has NO PROPS on it and that the
autopilot is NOT CONNECTED to your computer via USB and the Lipo battery is
disconnected.
Steps
1. Connect the autopilot to the Mission Planner.
2. Go to the Initial Setup | ESC Calibration page.
