Default mode - why is it angle?

[olfried]

Hi,
i have a copter with MPU6050 only and i would lice to fly in ACRO mode.
I have only an four chanel transmitter so there is no AUX1 or AUX2 ...
Whenever is start MultiWii 2.3 and connect with my android or PC the
mode is Angle, which i definitely don't want.
Why is it so? How can i make the copter start in ACRO mode?
I already cleared EEprom but it didn't help.
Can someone help me with this issue, please.
Thx
Olaf

Connect your board to computer and Gui..then post screenshot...maybe we will see what is wrong.

Hi,
this is the screenshot and as you can see, angle-mode is on. But i did not switch it on:-)

Hi,
meanwhile someone in another forum suggested, to set "angle" and "horizon" to "high".
Is that maybe the solution?
I will try this tonight.

Hi,
i got it now. But it is surprising for me.
I needed to have the transmitter switched on. Not only the receiver needs to be on but also the transmitter.
It's surprising, because the shown Aux1-Value was 1500 also without the transmitter.
Anyway, now it works.
Have a nice day

It's called failsafe!
Puts the FC in Angel mode automaticly if RC signal is lost.

Hi,

Beware, you should always have the transmitter on when working with the FC with the receiver connected especially if the LiPo battery is also connected. Some interference or problem may happen and the FC may start the motors because of some random signal.
