0 Hello all!
When in BFC Motors Tab - Reorder Motors - "Click the motor that is spinning". None of my Motors spin. I have a Battery connected. I cant figure this out. When disconnected from BFC and using a Battery the Motors do spin when I lift the throttle only to spin a quarter of a turn to the right and not take off.
I really do appreciate any help with this.

43 Don't reorder from Betaflight, do it from ESC-Configurator. Betaflight is sometimes buggy.
As to the motors only partially spinning, check your soldering. I've had this when two pads have been bridged by accident. it causes weird stutters. or it could be bad motors or bad esc's or both. You need to troubleshoot it. But try spinning them up from ESC-Configurator or BLHeli. Use Betaflight for configuring everything else.

0 Is ESC Configurator alright to use for this purpose? BLheli cannot find my device (quad).

4 You will need the battery and the USB all connected at this same, otherwise you will not be able to configure the motors -- of course safety first and props off when configuring motors.

43 Yeah definitely pull the props off. Use a piece of electrical tape on the top of the motor to determine direction. More than likely you will need to reverse two of them and yes ESC-Configurator is fine. It's what I use, although i also have BLHeli for a couple of AIO's that won't run Bluejay.
