Make sure your FTDI cable is around the right way

Hi guys,

The ESC32 seems to currently be out of stock, can anyone advise when they'll be back in stock?

Cheers,

Sam

Ok, so my connections were bad.. red LED flashing now, it wasn't before.

I'm getting this:
stm32flash - http://stm32flash.googlecode.com/


Using Parser : Intel HEX
Using Parser : Intel HEX
Serial Config: 57600 8E1



Failed to get init ACK from device
-------
And I still see AQ Firmware not connected.

When and exactly for how long I should keep my hands on tweezer at BOOT?

I went through this ....

Wrote and verified address 0x0800d000 (99.88%)
Wrote and verified address 0x0800d040 (100.00%)
Done.

Resetting device...
done.

Coming to the parameters. From the guide, this is all what I can find or did.

Is there anything I need to alter or worry about. I'm using hexa X configuration btw. Flight Stability is an important key and main reason of using AQ + ESC32s.

Thanks.

you must do calibration
check this http://autoquad.org/wiki/wiki/esc32/esc32-calibrations/

Thanks bluuu, that's my next task after receiving some remaining items of this AQ hexa setup.

But apart from that, is there anything else I need to do after flashing and setting the parameters.
When I dc the URAT and re-connect the ESC32 to QGC, all parameters are disappeared. I do write config tho..

One more thing regarding flashing, now the firmware I used is this one:
1.4.1 Build 5251
http://autoquad.org/software-downloads/?did=14

Is that OK or shall I use the latest r32 one?

I just want to know what is the difference?

[bluuu]

Which FW is it ? 1.4.3 ?
Try to use QGC 1.0.5 to make changes in ESC parameters.
1.2.1 still have some problems with esc32
