OK, I finished building my drone and hooked it up to my computer, I can get the screen up with the flight controller and everything looks good. However, as soon as I hook up the battery and engage the rotors, they start spinning very fast. Good thing I didn't have the props on or god knows where it would have ended up.
How can I get the prop speed to stop until I throttle up?

initially it sounds like an incorrect wiring/asssembly matter as the motors can't start without going through the motor start procedure via the remote control handset.
Have you been through the pre-flight video and double checked all the wiring? http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=18805
Also the set-up info on this page? http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=17972

OK. I've double checked everything I can. I even ordered a new control board and installed it. It still starts all motors going as soon as I engage the remote. HELP please. I'm at my wits end.

Have you tried calibrating the motors? http://forum.model-space...aspx?g=posts&t=18229Finished 3D Printer, RB7, Hummer, Skyrider drone & Combat tank collection http://www.model-space.com/gb/

Possibly the Receiver or the RC handset is defective, contact c/s for replacement of both.
