Re: Quad X - not flyable - devil inside??

Hi acid_g,
have you tried how it behaves with only 1/2/3 ESCs connected/under load with motor(s)? Maybe an (broken) ESC is injecting noise to the 5V line. Is your buffer foam from an ESD protection (slighty conductive)?

regards,

Compile MultiWiiConf-Basic HowTo

Hi, maybe easy stuff for most of you but cost me some time on the first run. I´m sure it´s already explained better somewhere else but I haven`t found it in compressed form so I´ll give a brief description here: 1. Altough the Conf code opens in Arduino you need "Processing" to compile it:...

I2C address constants, TRI yaw centre, ACC offsets

Hi Alex, nothing essential but mayby nice to have for others, too: - constants for the Adresses of the I2C sensors, e.g. /* I2C gyroscope */ #define ITG3200 #define Gadr 0xD2 //#define L3G4200D /* I2C accelerometer */ #define ADXL345 #define ACCadr 0xA6 . . . #if defined(ITG3200) ... i2c_rep_start(G...

Re: Calibrating ESCs using multiiWii code

Hi mstanescu! The fast beeping means that they lost input signal -> minimum pulse time is too short, try higher numbers eg. 1010, 1020... I finally switched my 6A ESCs to the quax blmc firmware because I had the problem that travel setup was messed up from time to time (eg after firmware download to...

Re: Connecting multiple +5v to the board via ESC

Hi! It maybe a risk! It doesn´t depend on the basic technology (switching/linear), e.g. iirc it´s possible with YGE-BLMCs (switching BEC), but on the circuite/layout/interconnection. The two main risks are: -Doesn´t work as it shoud which means that the main load is driven by the BEC with the highes...
