Hi,

Please remeber that, as per DIY Drones rules, questions should be posted on to the forums rather than the front page blog. The blog is reserved for news, project reports and other such informative content.

Regards,
Sami


PS. Here's a copy of your blog post so you can easily copy–paste it onto the forums:

Hi All,

I have heard many people said about reflashing ESCs to increase rate response so that the copter get more stability.

But this process is not quite easy especially in soldering small wires on ESC PCB and the new firmware cut off some functions.

Could some one tell me if this is worth or not?

And if yes, does the throttle calibrate function work after this? if No, how to do?

Thanks in advanced,

Duy
