guys i have multiwii v2.5 anyone using it can u pls help me updating the firmware  i used 2.3 bt it doesnt fly my quad pls help

SideWinder

2.3 is the latest firmware AFAIK so if your board has that there is no need to upgrade. What do you mean by it doesnt fly? Is it unstable, not arming at all , not enough power etc?

Can you put up in detail what have you done till now chronologically with a pic of your setup?

Some more questions which can help you out:

Have you uploaded sketch with correct configuration?
Have you calibrated radio,esc,acc,mag and covered the baro?
Have you set flight modes?
Have you correctly set up props and motors and frame orientation?
Have you tuned PID's?

hello friend i have done everythng on the multiwii that u mentioned check the props to the pids well i am doubtfull with the pids bt i kept them default at once and later changed them well when i arm my quad it props rotate to a speed i would say half throttle and at throttle of 10% it gives all it has and doesnt increases as i go to 50% or 100% throttle on tx when i yaw or elevate it by the sticks it juss hovers slightly and flies to few meters by touching ground again and agaian i suppose it doesnt gets proper throttle and all connections and all are correct event the sensors are calibrated and the escs are tuned fine they sing together if u have a customised code for ur quad can u send it to me @ i have used all the firmware i suppose with the 2.1 it is getting thrutst will try soon

may be

the weight of your quad is too much
the props used are not matching motors specs.
amps of esc are low
thrust of motors low
or even the battery cant draw enough amps/volts

can you post all the parts list
