Thanks Tony. Will do.

G'day again everyone I changed the throttle/yaw gimble in the Flysky transmitter and it set up everything fine until I went to control the little Beastie. Back to square one!!! I then gave up on the Flysky tranmitter. I have also given up on the Radiolink exercise. I have now bitten the...

Thanks for the kind words guys. I will have a play and see how I go. The first effort I had with down loading their Radiolink software was fun. I think half is in Chinese and the other in English. When I opened the zip files a number of the files shown in the manual were not there . I will...

G'day again everyone Sorry about the gap in communications. My father passed away Monday and I have been somewhat preoccupied since then. Problem: (1) I have been unable to figure out this sub-trim approach using the Radiolink transmitter. I have attached some pics to show you what the...

G'day Tony I am trying to arm the quad, but I also can't get Betaflight to work from my transmitter. If Betaflight recognises the transmitter, I assume that you can set the arming process through the mode selection. I don't know what throttle sub trim is. Is it part of Betaflight or a control...

G'day everyone, Run into another problem. I connected the radiolink receiver (R8EF), altered the settings from ibus to sbus, matched all the settings from the L160 quad on Betaflight, and bound the transmitter. It all appears normal, but no communication when attempting to operate the...

Thanks Tony, I will put it to one side for the moment and try the radiolink stuff. Will let you know how I fare. cheers Grant

Thanks for the info everyone. This transmitter came with the quad. I have not used it with anything else. Self level is off. The yaw issue has been there from the start. It won't move unless you stab the control and even then it is all or nothing. The throttle control also has a mind of it's...

Good evening everyone, I have finally managed to get 9 mini videos uploaded to youtube. The links are as follows: 6 Beastie Armed 7 Beastie 1 8 Beastie 2 9 Beastie 3 They are in the order of gyro, receiver, motor spin up with computer (no battery), motor spin up with battery...

Thanks

G'day everyone I have finally managed to get some video clips (9 of them) to demonstrate my problem, but the files are too large to load. Can anyone tell me how to modify the files to upload them please? I have them as Mp4 files at the moment and the largest is 49659 bytes. cheers Grant

Thanks mate. I am hoping too lol.

Thanks Guys I will be off work on Wednesday in two days time so will video the quad and the Betaflight screen then and post it. The four motors are the same. The esc is a 4 in 1 20A Racerstar. I have not checked that the individual motors spinning up are the correct ones so will check that. I...

G'day again Tony, I have reloaded the software in the quad and firmware in the transmitter (transmitter is a Flysky FS-ia6). The latest firmware I could find was 15 Jan 2015. I am guessing there are newer firmware updates but I could not locate them. I am new to github and struggle to find...

G'day Guys Thanks for your help. D.O.G. I have run through the motor process with Betaflight. It was here that I found that the discrepancy was when I spun the motors up with the transmitter throttle while I had everything connected to Betaflight. Tony I will go through the full setup process...

Just had another play. This time the motors spin irregularly with all spinning at different speeds. If the throttle is held full on for a while they all get to max revs most times, but some still drop off. At no stage do they all spin at the same speed. The yaw control is either nothing or...

G'day again Tony I have not gone through all the solder joints as yet, but think I have found the problem. When I spin the motors up with the computer and monitoring with Betaflight, they spin up evenly. When I use the transmitter they are all over the place. Motors 1 and 4 spin up to 2000...

G'day Tony I just checked and the props are going the right way. Haven't had a chance to check the soldered joints yet. Will post an update when I have checked them with the results. cheers Grant

Thanks guys I will check the solder joints. The motor seemed to spin up evenly with the others using Betaflight. How do you tell if a motor is bad or not outside of Betaflight? cheers Grant

G'day everyone I have just resurrected a home built quad that I bought off a young fellow a month or so back. It is a home build from Aussie Stuarts build a FPV racing drone for $99. I can't get the little beastie off the ground. It has the basic components he recommended, but I replaced the...
