Flight Controllers Revo Flight Controller

[sneezy007]

Hey guys,

I bought a used quad last fall and am finally getting around to it. I have no clue what the quad is but it did come with a Armattan PDB.

The quad came with a Revolution flight controller. How do you install a FrSky receiver to this board?
Also how do you install Betaflight into this board?

Thanks a lot,
Dino

Here is the pin out for it.

Can you link me to the exact controller you are using? There are a few different ones. But if it is the one that I think it is, it is running on OpenPilot which you have to program via LibrePilot. But, you may be able to still flash Cleanflight or Betaflight on it. I have a video on it linked below.

Hey Tony,

Thanks for the video, that is the correct board. I've been asking around about this board and apparently it's very old.
I chatted with the boys at Rotorgeeks and they suggested this board instead. They said it will make my life much easier.

That doesn't look like too bad of a board. I do like the spektrum satellite plug that they include (I think lol). Not a board I would look into, but should work just fine.

I was looking at this one CL Racing F4S Flight Controller (Version 4)
and the Betaflight boards as well. Would I have to desolder all the ESC's as they soldered onto the PDB now.

That's the problem buying used gear. You have to figure out what the other pilot did.
