Silverware Wiki

(incomplete - in progress)

There are a number of common problems after initial flashing of you quad with the Silverware firmware. Be be assured that unless the flashing failed. Typically you'll see the error when flashing if this ever occurs so you'll already know that's the problem. Here is a list of common problems.

1. Propellers are incorrectly attached - with the quad top facing up, facing forward and starting with the top left motor the propellers should be B, A, B, A like shown in the image below:
   
   
2. Motors/properllers are obstructed in some way. Check each propeller is spinning freely when flicked with your finger. Any that do not spin freely are at issue. Check that these are not pressed too firmly causing friction between the frame and the propeller. Also check for foreign objects such as hair or cobwebs, etc.
