My drone is all set to fly and every calibration is done . Arming is done ,but when I’m trying to test the drone by arming it. The thrust is increasing according to the throttle but it’s not happening when I’m lowering the throttle.the thrust becomes zero as soon as the throttle is zero
Hello @Mr_Rajashekar
Welcome to the community.
Are you using ArduCopter firmware version 3.6.x?
If yes, please update to 4.5.7. Reset all parameters to their default values. And reconfigure your vehicle from scratch.
The test you are doing, it is without propellers, right? If so, the results that you are getting are normal and expected.

Thanks for the reply.
My first firmware I used in my pixhawk is 4.5.8, my pixhawk didn’t even calibrate esc in that firmware,so I got to know that my pixhawk is flexible from only 3.6.1 to 3.6.12 , which I got after all the testing of firmwares that are available in the ardupoilet website, in the series of 3.6.x my pixhawk calibration is perfect in all categories, except that motors are increasing speed through half way perfectly but my motor are not in control of my transmitter (fsi6s ). My problem lies here I come all the way here through testing all the firmware that are available.
I guess someone might help me in this situation.
This isn’t true for any Pixhawk. Which one do you have?
And your test is most likely irrelevant.
I’m using my pixhawk 2.4.8 which I bought in 2016
Those take either Fmuv3 or Pixhawk1 of the latest versions of Ardupilot. There has only been one example I know of that required the Pixhawk1-1M version for 1Mb units.
Start with the latest Stable version of Pixhawk1. And of course use the latest version of Mission Planner.
Note-This is not a Radiolink branded version right?
I’m currently using fmuv3 and pixhawk 1 is same as fmuv3
Those firmware’s are not the same. Close, as Pixhawk1 includes fmuv3. Which one to choose depends on what factory in China these generic Flight Controllers came from and the hardware used. I don’t consider them worthy as a choice.
