After my upgrade I can't do a single stick motor shutdown. I'm assuming they changed this because some people may have been shutting their motors off mid flight.

I'm just checking to make sure this is part of the .17 upgrade.

How about yours?

Single stick shutdown fine here on .17

Flew 4 packs yesterday on new firmware and single stick shutdown worked every time. Single stick shutdown will not initiate while you are flying and the flight controller is getting difference readings from the barometer.
Maybe try RC calibration as remote may not be seeing full throw of the throttle stick after upgrade.

Oh boy, and I just got this back after 5 weeks at DJI LA (not a crash repair).

And yes, I did an RC Calibration. I'll try another one tonight.

Anybody else have an idea what may be going on here?

Once on the ground you should be able to bring throttle down and hold it for a sec or two, this will shutdown the motors.

If you turn the motors on, you won't be able to turn them off with throttle down, if you don't lift it. You have to shut them down with both sticks. Again, I'm talking the bird is on the ground all the time.

Blade_Strike.  No, I can't, I have to do a csc shutdown. Any suggestions?

Andy, I just got the unit back but, hovered in the house a bit, then landed and the single stick down and hold would not shut the motors.

That's weird... Are you sure your sticks are calibrated?

Was this over carpet by any chance?

Yes, it was but, I have flown over this a dozen times before I sent the unit in to LA. I'll try another surface later tonight if you suspect that may be a problem.

mine shuts down with both 1 and 2 sticks.
