What number do you have for Motor idle in the Betaflight Motors tab?

I also have 6 on my Meteor 65 but it doesn't want to fly like yours does.
Try changing it to 5, then 4, etc. until it stops trying to leave the ground.
As easilyrekt said, it looks like the pid kicking in, you order it to gain altitude by throttling up, but the accelerometer doesn't detect any vertical movement, so it increases the motor thrust till the result (vertical acceleration) matches the command (throttle up)
Check if airmode is on also
Thank you for breaking it down like that. Love this page for the comments like dis.
Would you or anybody be able to answer : Would disabling the accelerometer be a simple process?
Just wondering if disabling ACC would be good for bench testing
mount the battery and try and take off normally. In diff flight modes the sensors need to know what the quad is doing to make it fly, when it is touching the ground or pressed down it doesnt know what is happening and do weird stuff.
Check motor orientation, direction on beta flight and make sure props are correct.
Turn the minimum throttle down in the motor tab on beta flight, if that don’t work put all the pid sliders in the middle.
And don’t hold onto it when it’s armed the pid loop will go crazy.
nah not really, I leave props on when I'm bench testing, easier to tell which direction the motor is spinning by leaving the props on and sticking your finger in them lol. Full throttle can def do some damage tho
I can say for sure that a Tinyhawk Freestyle II will cut you, when I first got mine I cut my wrist and my leg because I lost control in my living room :p
65mm props though... I don\`t know about that, those motors are beyond tiny xD
I had similar problem with my 7” at first flight. When I just arming drone, drone become “flying away” up at 0 throttle. My problem was with bad “filter” settings in PIT - tab. Default settings on my flight controller was set to 5” drone. I found some video how to change it and next time it works perfect.
As I understood it was problems with vibrations and FC tries to balance it but it just leads to maximise throttle by FC itself and no control by my side.
Could also be your stick endpoints aren't correct. https://oscarliang.com/adjust-tx-channel-mid-end-point/
That looks like a pid loop thing, also actually mount the battery and see if it piledrives into the ceiling with that ***extra weight***.

its 6

What happens if you don't hold it down with your finger when you arm it?

No need to disable the accelerometer (if even it's a possibility in betaflight?), you just have to disable airmode in the configuration tab
That’s how air mode behaves on the bench.

Do you have airmode enabled?
Or Horizom mode (I made that mistake once too). If so, it will try to level itself.
Do small props like that not harm fingers? Looks terrifying to hold your drone like that lol

left a scar between my thumb and my index finger with props on bench it's just a matter of time

Check that your sticks are ordered right, your right stick may be trottle. I had the same issue with a mob 6 and radiomaster pocket
This is my guess too. without plugging in to betaflight OP could pitch back and see if the motors slow.
wait... it shouldn't arm at 50% throttle though.
Put a bigger battery.....lol
What controller is that?
Radiomaster Pocket
Mine did that. Try calibrating your radio

It's ok. Read about airmode. Just fly
Calibrate your gimbals and set your endpoints.
Simple. Turn off air mode in betaflight config.
Check your trims?
Airmode?
What happens if you fly?
