Multiwii 2.2 will not ARM

Post by cromz »

Hi,
I have a MWC CRUIS SE board and it works perfectly fine with Multiwii 2.1. But when i updated to Multiwii 2.2 , i'm not able to ARM my quad. I tried arming thru Aux1 but still it wont ARM. Just to be sure that the problem is Multiwii 2.2, i downgraded again to 2.1 and its works great. So again, i updated the second time to 2.2 but again, im not able to ARM it. My TX is dx6i and its working perfectly from multiwii 1.6 to 2.1.

Appreciate if someone can help me :)

Could you try to trim your throttle down?

This is more for support forum really - but please post the values from GUI when trying to arm. Throttle, roll and yaw. Assume havent changed the mincheck values?

my settings for the throttle is the same as 2.1 which are the default values as well for the 2.2. also i tried bringing down the mincheck to 900 but still no go.

Your pitch roll and yaw commands (whichever you use for arming) must go below mincheck which is 1100 by default. Lowering will make it less likely to arm!
I don't use box arm, but if you do I suspect that disables arm/disarm by sticks if functionality is enabled

Look at the values the controller generates.

You can change thresholds here:

Multiwii.ino

(Because my controller generates cannel-values ​​in the range from 1055 to 1886)

// ******************
// rc functions
// ******************
#define MINCHECK 1100
#define MAXCHECK 1800
