Ok, so have had a further look at the build, and did a little testing across the channel pins on the cc3d board. All the +/- points on the power distribution board to the ESCs are showing voltage when the battery is connected, so it's not my novice soldering skills there :)
However when I check...
Thanks! Have reflashed the board and gone through the setup as many times as i can (without it being too obvious as i'm building it at work ;) ). Vehicle setup gets as far as the individual motor setup but when i drag the slider the motors never turn. Will do a full multimeter test across all...
Cheers for the vid post - i remember that was a vid i watched while i was researching frames. My essential setup seems fine, so i was wondering if it could be one of a couple of things. Firstly i have a 2cell 7.4v lipo, would this have enough juice to power my setup? Secondly, i think the board...
the issue is that those cables match the cables on the lipo itself (it plugs in to the JST connecter under the frame). If I swap out the cables from the frame to the JST female connector won't I still have the same issue from the lipo to the male connector?
Hey there, thanks for everyone's help :)
ok, so running down the channels from 1 to 4, I have forward-left, forward-right, back-right, back-left. Have checked to make sure there are no bridging wires and seems to be fine (I have removed the top panel to take this shot).
When the lipo is...
beacon mode when the quad chirps every 3 seconds or so. When I ran the transmitter wizard, all the sticks register except the one set to ch 1 so it couldn't progress through to completion
Hi all! Hope someone with greater knowledge here can help - I am close to completing my first quad build based on the following:
Diatone frame
cc3d board
Afro ESC controllers
multistar elite 2204 motors
Everything is built out ok, the board is flashed to match the version of openpilot but when...
