arduino pro mini 168 multiwii conf error

Post by lollix89 »

Hi everybody, i'm trying to build a multiwii system with a wmp a nunchuck and arduino pro mini 168 running multiwii 1.9 (without the lcd module for space reasons) . Now when i try to read the sensors data with the multiwii conf gui i get "arduino vs gui: verison or buffer size mismatch" and nothing shows up!!! I looked around for this problem but couldn't solve it. I'm sure my sensors work well cause i tried them out with an arduino 2009 and work like a charm, so i think the problem is arduino pro mini 168. Anyone has experienced this issue? Thanks a lot!!

With code 1.9 and below you need to use Arduino 0022 or 0023, with code V2 and above you need Arduino 1 or 1.01.

Almost every versin have it's own Gui.
Make shure you match Gui vs Ver.

V1.9 is still available to download.

You sure you checked the right board in the Arduino settings

yes, i checked the arduino pro mini 168 and the code was compiled and uploaded succesfully on arduino. Moreover the arduino seems working well ( led flashing) but on the gui keep appearing the same error!!! i start thinking that the problem is in the fact that i cut off the lcd module to fit the code on arduino....:(:(

Reload fresh code in the arduino.
And just comment the Lcd.

As PatrikE says commenting out a portion of code just means that when you compile it that portion is ignored, hence why all the comments are behind //.

To be sure we are all on the same page here, the GUI is the interface what you see what your copter is doing when you tilt it and turn etc, runs in windows, linux or Mac in the MultiWiiConf folder. The Arduino programme is just for writing, editing, compiling and executing the sketch you have uploaded i.e the blink sketch. There is no output from the Arduino programme unless you use the serial monitor, the only info you should get is errors or code uploading/uploaded, with the blink sketch you only see the led on the board blink nothing on the screen. Access to the Arduino programme is usually done by clicking in the *.pde or *.ino file in the MultiWii*.* folder
