789 If you have no props fitted when you are doing this then it's normal. With no props there is no load so it confuses the PID controller and you can end up seeing that sort of behaviour.

789 You can turn on MOTOR_STOP but I don't advise that because motors spinning when armed acts as a safety feature so you know the quad is armed.
Also, if you turn on AIR mode you will always have spinning motors when you arm the quad regardless of the setting of MOTOR_STOP.

388 If you check that orientation is correct, motor spinning the correct direction and in the right place, and props on the correct way, you should just do a hoover test. You don't even have to take off to test. Give slight throttle, then slight roll right and left. You should see the quad slight move in the corresponding direction. Same for pitch forward and back.
The other way to test, put quad in angle mode, slight throttle, and you should see the quad level out.
When I say slight throttle, just enough to spin the props but not lift the quad off the ground. If anything is off, the quad will go crazy. But not too crazy because the throttle is not high enough.
