Does it do the same after you reboot your computer?.

no. i can get into set up before i hit connect, but once its connected i get the error code.

Okay, that might mean it has a problem with one of the parameters.
Would you be able to connect to your gyro then after it has connected, save a config file for me? (Also after you have done this, double check that pressing setup still causes the error).

Then open up the saved config file with notepad and copy and paste the contents on a post (or changing the file extension to txt may allow you to attach it).

I will see if I can replicate the problem and fix it.

Thanks
John

Amazing what I can miss. I had missed out the configuration for servo type setting 6 (ServoType = 5), so that was causing it the exception when you tried to go to the setup page.

I have fixed this and added in a bit more protection at the same time. I also spotted a few more issues in my program and dealt to those as well.

Version 1.15 now up on http://fbl.net.nz.

Thanks Dodgeboy222 for your patience and helping me find the cause of the issue, most appreciated.

doesnt matter anymore. i took it off and im selling it.
glad i was able to atleast help with something.

oops wrong post

Thanks so much John:Now can you tell me what I need to adjust when the heli acts like a slow spinning top about to fall over in a hover?

Have you checked your pirouette optimization direction?

sounds like it is shaking in pitch and roll, try to reduce the total gains for pitch and roll, making the numbers smaller will reduce the gain.

Make sure your blades are tracking well, those vibs could cause issues

I have found setting one of these up with the instructions provided is painful at best. I just about got my baby flying well and smack, I flew right into the snow.

We really need a finless bob vid on setting one of these up

I've orded a plug but with the new year and all I don't expect to see if for awhile. Great work on this SW John, I'm looking forward to giving it a try

ya mine refuses to connect. Im really confused

What steps do I need to be following in order for this to connect?

-Radio ON
-RX ON
-Wait till Gyro initializes
-Plug usb to PC
-Cable to gyro
-Hit connect (depends on COM port) **Mine reserved COM5**
-USB will slowly blink a blue light
