Test motors does not work

FC: SpeedyBee F405 V3 BLS 60A 30x30 Stack

I have installed ArduPilot and was able to connect with QGroundControl and setup radio, calibrate sensors.

However motor test doesn’t work, none of them spins Motor Setup | QGC Guide (4.3)
The same with MissionPlanner on Windows

How can I fix it or debug?

How did you connect mission planner to the FC? Bluetooth or USB? If USB, did you connect the battery to the ESCs? Did the ESCs beep? Did you calibrate the ESCs before the test?
When you are using BLS, why are you using PWM anyway? You should use DShot for BLS. You should also use the -bdshot target for the SpeedyBee board with BLS ESCs.

And flash Bluejay to the ESC’s to get RPM via Bdshot.
With the demise of BLHeli_32 this is a great option.

changed MOT_PWM_TYPE from Normal to DShot300, it helped, thanks!

Do yourself a favor and use this alongside that.
