ECS calibration without Joystick/Gamepad

ArduCopter Copter 3.1

Hi everyone,

I am newbie and I need your help, please. I have apm 2.6 and the telemetry radios, and I want to do calibration for the ESC . I found this tutorial copter.ardupilot.com/wiki/initia … esc-motor/ , but they use joystick, and I don’t have Joystick or Gamepad. My question is : Is there a way to do this calibration without Joystick/Gamepad?? Thank you in advance.

Hi FutureEngineer. You have to do the calibration with your transmitter throttle stick.
The ESC’s will save the positions of minimum and maximum throttle, a calibration without transmitter/joystick is not possible or makes no sense.
