Crius Bluetooth with a Naze32

[kad]

Has anyone used on of these Bluetooth modules with a Naze32? And if so, any advice for getting one hooked up and working?

Any BT module will work, so that one will also. Nothing to do just connect rx/tx, swap them if things aren't working.
Don't use BT and USB at same time (I mean actively transmitting) and it's fine.

Hi timecop,

It does not need to connect previously on the Rx cable a resistor of 10 kOhms in order to prevent the eventual difference between the 5 V logic of the board and the 3.3 V logic of the BT module?

Yours,
Georges

? The board is already 3.3V.
There's no 5V I/O. If you're talking about (potential) 5V IO from BT module, that's fine as UART pins are 5V-tolerant (if I remember correctly)

Hi timecop,

I am speaking on Rx logic of the BT board. Maybe I did'nt understood correctly some hardware comments.

I use that exact BT board on my Naze32 rev 4 precisely as timecop has suggested above (no resistor). Works great.

Apologies for resurecting a year-old thread, but I'm wondering if I got a bad Bluetooth module from RCTimer...or if I'm just suffering from a brain-check.

I've got the same RCTimer Bluetooth module as in the OP, but neither my SGS-III phone, nor my Nexus 7 tablet can see the device.

The Bluetooth module powers up, and the green light is on. I've tried swapping the rx/tx leads, powering down and up...but no how many times I search from my phone or tablet, there are no Bluetooth devices available to pair with.

Bad module...or user fail?

You should see something when discovering. You could try reconfiguring it with a FTDI adapter... it responds to AT commands to change device name, pin, baud etc.. however I doubt it's going to help if you don't see anything from a bluetooth device discovery. Sure you did't reverse polarity it or something that lets the magic blue smoke out? More here: http://apirola.wordpress.com/2012/09/05 ... oard-v1-2/

Thanks felixrising for the quick response.

No magic blue smoke, just nothing there to discover. They're pretty cheap, and since I have a couple of quads I've ordered couple of new ones.

Also, many thanks for the link...that will be helpful!

Hello. Just recently tried to get bluetooth to work with my Naze32 Acro. I have the bluetooth module from RC timer. I can pair with the device, however when I go into the Android Naze32 config application on my Note 3 I get an error. I get a message that says "connection successful", then it says "returning fom CLI", then I get the error:

"
Error occured

an error has occured in sub:main_treatboxnames (java line: 5695)
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: length-494;regionStart=0; regionLength=-1
Continue?
"

Any Suggestions?

Thanks.

What configurator you're using?
