0 I have a CJMCU that I've put together. Standard 7mm motors, ladybird props etc. The problem I'm getting is that after a few seconds hovering, or if I punch the throttle over 60% ish the motors cut out. I don't think the issue is with the battery as I can use the same battery with my QX95 (8.5mm motors) without issue.
I can only think that either the issue is with the FETS on the board or with my cleanflight settings. The CJMCU board is new so I believe the issues with the FETS have been resolved now.
Any ideas? Anyone else had this issue?

139 what's your motor_pwm_rate?
and do all the motors cut out the same time? (hold the micro quad in your hand so you can see clearly - careful don't hurt yourself)

0 21-Nov-2016, 07:24 PM (This post was last modified: 21-Nov-2016, 09:00 PM by JBFUK.) I need to check the PWM rate, think it's the default. I forgot to mention I got no motor response at all from the latest version of cleanflight - was about to send the boards back as having bad FETs but then tried an older version of cleanflight and they worked!
All motors cut out at the same time (drops straight no spinning etc). RX is on OrangeRX DSM satellite powered via the regulated 3.3v feed on the board. Guess I could set the failsafe to more or less hover to check whether it's going to failsafe mode.
[EDIT]
motor_pwm_rate = 16000
