MX Nano MWC v1.31 troubles
Posted: Sun Apr 12, 2015 3:05 am
I'm about to give up on this and that never happens with me so I'm pleading for help. LOL
I have a MX Nano 1.31 board in a Super-X Quad and am having nothing but troubles in trying to get it work with the GUI or the Arduino IDE. I'm running Windows 8 64bit and the board shows up under ports as USB Serial Port COM3. However when I load the GUI and try to connect I get nothing (checked baud rate etc.) also when I try to flash Multiwii to the board I cannot get it to sync with Arduino (avr_dude hates me). I have been scouring the internet for DAYS on forums and search engines to no avail. I'm running out of patience for this little guy quick and I was really excited about this project!
I will mention that the board works and flies with the factory software running on it but I sure would like to be able to do some tuning and set up some flight modes other than just the stabilize mode (yeah it got boring quick lol) but of course I won't be able to until I can get past this.
I have gone through and tried every board in arduino and I've double checked and reinstalled FTDI drivers, checked software versions, etc. with no luck. I seems as though there is not a reset pad for the jumper on the FTDI stick. What am I missing? (BTW yes I am new to Multiwii) Thanks for your patience and knowledge in advance!
