I already described how to flash the Cleanflight firmware on the CC3D flight controller using Arduino. But here I will show you how to flash the board only through the USB-Port. Update 13.12.2015: Note that from v1.11 Cleanflight flashing via OpenPilot GCS is not possibly anymore! Use your Arduino instead or older Cleanflight version. First

Many of the ESCs on the market have their own firmware and are not optimized for using in multicopters. For best performance you need to flash the ESCs with a special multirotor firmware. Note: Not all of the ESCs can be flashed with these firmwares. Check this list to see which ESCs are supported. The
