PLEASE DO NOT FLASH LIGHTNING 20A and 30A ESC WITH WRONG FIRMWARE. We have had many customers flash the Lightning 20A and Lightning 30A ESCs with Nano20A 14.6 firmware and having problems. Lightning 20A and 30A ESCs are factory flashed with 14.2 and performs flawlessly. Although BlHeli Suite recommends Nano20A 14.6 firmware, "EMAX Lightning 20A" firmware for multirotors must be used if updating to 14.6. Please check version of firmware before flashing.
