Hello @ravi ,

Follow the sequence in Methodically configure and tune ArduCopter

Use this software if you want: GitHub - ArduPilot/MethodicConfigurator: A clear ArduPilot configuration sequence

This should calibrate ESCs:

But as amilcarlucas is saying, that is just the first step on a long road

Trying to calibrate the ESCs without having the RC connected and configured can under some situations cause issues.

Following a proven and tested configuration sequence is the only way to make sure that you do not fall into a Rabbit hole. But that is just my opinion.
