Re: How do I calibrate the channels on my TX?
This worked, and after some experimentation, it seems that the lowest value I can use that still arms the board is 1150. Now, however, I have another problem. When the board arms, the motors spin up and I can't make them stop unless I disarm the board. No amount of down trim on the throttle has an e...

Re: Fiber carbon hollow
I have had mixed results with this site. They don't pack well, but this is a sturdy item that I wouldn't worry too much about. I've gotten good quality carbon tubes from them.

Re: How do I calibrate the channels on my TX?
I just checked and this is what is in the sketch and uploaded to my WMC:
// ******************
// rc functions
// ******************
#define MINCHECK 1100
#define MAXCHECK 1900
When I have the GUI loaded I can only see values between 1200 and 1800.

Re: How do I calibrate the channels on my TX?
Thanks, I'll try that next. Will that one setting apply to all the channels, or do I need to do that for each?

How do I calibrate the channels on my TX?
When I look at the GUI, all my channels are centered around 1500. However, the minimum values I get are around 1200 and the max is around 1800. I can't arm the control board unless I use the trims to lower the throttle and increase the yaw to the right. I am also not able to disarm the board / motor...

Re: Can't connect to GUI / board on Mac - any suggestions?
I tried a different FTDI cable and am now able to connect.
The FTDI basic connector that came with the Crius SE board does not work for me. I ordered a different board from Adafruit.com (FTDI Friend) and that did not work either.
I got the FTDI USB cable from Sparkfun.com and that worked. http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9718

Can't connect to GUI / board on Mac - any suggestions?

I've tried all combinations of arduino IDEs, MultiWii config GUIs, updated FTDI drivers, etc... The board is the CRIUS SE, using their supplied FTDI basic breakout The computer is a Mac, running ...
