    Beginner help much needed - please review my connections - PDB to FCB

    Hi experts! I had to conenct a new PDB to my FCP, but it seem this damn v2 version of PDB doeen't have a flat wire connector :-/ ...like the old one did. With this I've tried to figure out how to connect this up, wire by wire, from the included JST-SU conenctor with wires. I need someone that...

    Newer alternative to FCHUB-6S?

    Hi! I have an Matek F722 STD + FCHUB-6S setup where the FCHUB-6S is broken. FCHUB-6S are hard to get hold of these days. Is there a newer alternative I can use as effectievly with by Matek F722 STD which connected to the FCHUB-6S via the inlcuded flat cable. I know these are older boards, but...

    GPS is alright. Something wasn't working well with the firmware + my FC in iNav. Frying the FCB was a pure a sloppy mistake of course, have a multimeter, know how to use it. lol Will probably work much better with a all Matek setup, with an FCB that has specific version support in both iNav abd BF.

    Cool! So this one then? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Matek-Systems-F722-STD-STM32F722-F7-Flight-Controller-Built-in-OSD-BMP280-Barom/273969610563 Any known limitations I should be aware of? ...any other version I should get? UPDATE: I did order one of these, hope this will work out. Will probably...

    So, I never had much luck after moving to iNav. A few flying hick-ups made it smash into the ground. Should have sticked with Betaflight. Killed a bunch of props. Had problems starting it after and when I was to move back to Betaflight I had a mishap where the USB-cable touched a parts of the...

    I just found a thread on RCGroups talking about using OMNIBUSF4V3 instead. I switched to that firmware it all seems to work now!

    Newbie Drone build help needed

    My GPS isn't working correctly in iNav, which I feel is at least a bit strange as it does in Betaflight. As it works in BF I suspect it's connected correctly. I have a RadioLink M8N SE100 GPS and an Omnibus F4 V5 FC flashed to Omninbus F4 Pro. The magnetometer works fine in iNav and I've set GPS...

    https://github.com/iNavFlight/inav/blob/master/docs/Board%20-%20Omnibus%20F4.md Omnibus F4 Pro Sometimes called Omnibus F4 v2 Pro, but also exists v3, v4 & v5 versions with no functional differences

    Cool! Thanks for the quick reply. Before I do, can you just tell me the reasoning/logic behind picking that firmware version? Do you just know it's compatible or what? Is there a resource for looking this stuff up?

    Very frustrating! My version of the Omnibus FCB isn't in the iNav firmware list. What can I do to get around this? I really want to move to iNav. See list of attached firmware versions. I have the Omnibus F4 V5.

    Newbie Drone build help needed

    Hi all! Here's an update on the project. I've now done some light test flying. I'm not very experienced flying drones and only been flying simple ready-to-fly drones with a lot of built-in flying support. Alt. hold etc. etc. This made it quite hard now at first. Struggled to keep a certain...

    Newbie Drone build help needed

    Update. Going pretty well. Drone arming, FCB axis configured, motors spinning the right way, motor and protocal configured etc. and I've ordered a bunch of props. One thing I can't quite get the hang of is the Failsafe settings in Betaflight. When I turn off the transmitter the motors keep...

    Thanks for this @wafflejock The receiver is fully connected and I THINK it works, going to look into the rest in the coming days. One quick thing on anopther topis. I have had a really hard time finding the right kind of props. Someone a while back mentioned I should probably go for cheap 8x45...

    Newbie Drone build help needed

    Progress!! Got the servo cable in the mail today, so now the receiver is connected and it all seems to be working. Was able to control the little drone thing in Betaflight. What do I do next? Where do one start in terms of configuring, programming, mapping etc. now that all the components are in...

    Newbie Drone build help needed

    Solved it! As I was as sure as I could be that I've connected the GPS correctly I concluded the problem had to be Betaflight, not the app itself as it supports GPS, but the settings. Thanks from the video above I figured out that the Protocol for the GPS needs to be set to UBLOX, which isn't the...

    Hmmm, ok. This page says my boards it's supported. https://github.com/iNavFlight/inav/wiki/Supported-boards Should mean I can just downlaod the iNav Configurator and start configurating/see if the GPS works there, right? Or am I missing steps? Still open to other options if anyone else has an idea.

    I've done my best trying to get the GPS to work but it don't. It semms hopeless, but I really want this working. The main issue here seems to be betaflight says no sats or other signals and the icon in the top bar doesen't light up, as I think it should. I feel I've really now got the hang of...
