Happy flying!
This would all be so great if it was, as you said, "rock-solid". It just sounds like it still has a way to go before being rock-solid. Totally amazing though, just to think about. Thank you for this video and the series. Buddy
thank you so much. I love this series! Subscribed because of the CC3D stuff. I have just started thinking about building a QAV250 and the Revo seems to be great for that! I'm looking forward to seeing more things around that topic.
Librepilot 16.09 RC is out now! external mag support and new features.
Hi Mr. Painless. I have my revolution all set with Green Sensor alarms so long as GPS is disabled. Flies well. But when I enable GPS and set flight mode 3 to Position hold I still have green sensor alarms, but Config is now red. Red config syas that because I have a GPS assisted flight mode selected that I must enable INS13 instead of complimentary (as explained in your videos) So I do this, but when I go back to the HUD Atti and Mag are now Red and The artificial horizon is going nuts, pitching and rolling. I am using the Neo 6 M8N sold at Hobbyking as "for CC3d & Revolution" The only thing I have not tried is using the flexi port instead of the main port (I will try that after I hit "post" here. Any and all help welcome. Oh when I hover over the the red Atti and Mag sensor alarms they say they are not getting data at all. Its like INS13 is trying to use the GPS for Gyro and Mag. but that cant be right, can it? Or at the very least INS13 is switching off its ability to get data from Mag and Atti. Sighs... Thanks mate :)
+Jason Black ive not eeen that here. How odd. Please let me know when you get to the bottom of it. Best of luck!
Thank you so much for the amount of time that you are putting into showing us this flight board! I can't wait for video 6/6 to post!
I do have a two questions for you. What is the difference between the full size Revo and the mini Revo?
It appears to me that the full size Revo you can plug the ESC leads right into the board. Where on the mini you plug it into the wiring harness which converts it too a different connector to the board.
The other difference I see is that the Uplink to your computer wirelessly is separate on the mini. where it is built into the full size board.
My other question to you is can you share in advanced what external magnetometer / new GPS antenna you will be using so I can purchase that.
+Adam Rutchik Hey Adam. What you mention are pretty much all the difference between Revo and Mini (Also the size :) ). The Big revo kit comes with a Ublox M8N gps while the mini kit comes with a "OP GPS", It's like a simpler ublox sensor without compass.
Probably a good GPS would be the M8N with included magnetometer. The problem is that libre pilot does not support ext mag yet (ver. 15.xx). You Have to wait till the next release (ver 16.xx) to use it. Apparently there's a way to compile the new version, but i haven't found it yet.
Hello! I would like to ask you a question. In Velocity Roam flight mode do I have to configure somehting else, besides the attitude estimation algorithm and to add flight mode to switch? I am asking, because I wouldn't like to find out in the air (for one more time) that I had something more to configure ...! Thank you very much! :)
Sorry, I've not used CC3D or Librepilot for a while now so am out of touch with it. It looks like a GPS hold mode with a few extras.. I'd look in the forums for more detail. Best of luck!
Painless360 Thank you very much for the quick reply! I will ask and hope for the best! Thanks for your great help with your videos!
Hi Painless, thanks for another awesome series of videos. I understand that Librepilot seems to have stalled, and I have a Revo board for an aerial video quad that I'm wanting to fly using mainly GPS, so I was wondering what software you would recommend migrating over to, and would I still be able to use the OP-Link using different software, or would that become defunct? Many thanks, Chris
Not sure - still waiting to see which one is 'alive' such a shame that OpenPilot died.. :(
Fair enough, I've been hanging on for a few months now to see whether Librepilot does get going again eventually, which I really hope it does, but in the meantime I think I'm going to look into cleanflight instead, even if it means abandoning the OP-link... Will let you know how I fare! Thanks again, Chris
Hi) Can you help me? I do everything as indicated in your instructions, I checked more than once. When I put a GPS Navigation mode (INS13), the function "ARMED" does not work with the remote. I tried to change the input method, and still does not work. If i turn on function "Basik COMPLIMENTARY" its working. What is the problem? my board is REVOlution.
I accidentally found the cause). It's simple!) It is necessary to raise quadrocopter and move it in different directions, then earn stabilization system, and only after the work starts.
I'm keeping up on this build, and I, too, have been unable to achieve stable magnetometer function. The stock GPS module did autoconfigure successfully using the Flexi (middle) port on the miniRevolution. I pushed the video transmitter to the front behind the camera. The FC is in the center and a teeny FrSky XSR in the back. GPS is up on a short post in the back. I understand that a bigger and more distant GPS/MAG is likely to work well. However, in your opinion what would be the optimal layout to maximize the internal magnetometer function of the stock kit? What generates the most noise in this build - BEC in the power board, FPV transmitter, FPV antenna ...? Any shielding/isolation or power filtering measures likely to be helpful, or is this quad simply too small? FC to the back? I'll keep playing around.
+David Campbell until Librepilot gets around to supporting an external mag then I'm in the same boat.. Best of luck.
install and configure the GPS (mini CC3D revo ) .But when the drone armo (right yaw ) , these are not arman.Si off GPS settings , these if arman.Puede be no sensors are configured ?. I have problems with the magnetometer always in red on the gcs
Think Ill have a go with some of these GPS flight modes, love Librepilot ...... haven't had much luck with INAV yet ...... time to go shopping for a CC3D REVOLUTION ......... great to have a reference. CHEERS !
+One Two best of luck. I've pulled all the Cc3D and revos now in favour of stmf3 and stmf4 based boards running BF or iNav. We will be looking at the new Pixhawk 2.1 starting next month..
.... the PX 2 redundant system are gonna be perfect for my hexacopter build. Just added a BMP180 Digital Barometric Pressure Sensor to CC3D via I2C Flexiport so I'm still playing with my CC3D's : ), BUT, gonna go to www.GETfpv.com to upgrade to F4 and Dominic's new F3's and have a go again with INAV. CHEERS !
Hello Painless360, I'm hoping you can help me with a problem I'm having with a CC3D Atom. When I try to run the new vehicle wizard, I get the screen that says to upgrade/upgrade and erase. When I click to perform that task, I get a red letter statement that the board has timed out. What's interesting, is when I click the flight data button, I can see that the board is sending something to the computer, because I can see the artificial horizon move, and the 'compass' swings when I move the board around. It was a cheap board, I think I paid 16 dollars for it, I hate to discard the board for another, when it's possible I'm doing something wrong, or that I might have overlooked something. Thank you for your efforts.
+Airplay'n FPV not sure, I'd let the vendor know you have a problem.. Best of luck!
Is there going to be a video to let us know how the OSD works with Librepilot? It looks like yo have got the version from BangGood where the OSD has been added but there is no video... I can't get it to work.
Sucks about the the magnetometer do you think if you changed the layout maybe with a different non conductive frame and kept the power electronics away from the cc3d revo's board as much as possible that the on board magnetometer would function properly?
+Stephen Gibb The farther away from the other electronics the better. In a smaller frame this is almost impossible. Hopefully when we can use an external mag that will help..
Hello,
I would like to know if I can make the camera be turned down to the ground I see the horizon not continuous as the phantom 3 drone
i have a fpv Flying wing and i want to have autopilot capabilities with it like return to home when the radio signal is lost or with a switch on the radio. can i do this with the OpenPilot Mini CC3D Revolution and the OP GPS?
+RubenRD97 in theory it should. In practice I've not tested it. Best of luck!
Thanks for telling me i already ordered it and i will make a video about the setup and how good it works! : D
I'm thinking of getting one of these CC3D Revo flight controllers and using it for an R&D platform. How well do the GPS flight modes work? Stability wise, are the AltHold and PosHold modes comparable to the same flight modes on Pixhawk or DJI Naza?
Sadly not good enough to reply on in my opinion. The loss of the Openpilot project was a setback for the platform. If you want those types of control then I'd go for Pixhawk.. Best of luck!
Collision avoidance isn't implemented in things like Arducopter yet. I'm not planning on any more videos until something significant changes. Follow me mode needs a portable ground-station with a GPS (smartphone for example) connected to the model using something like the WiFi module on the PixRacer. A very dangerous mode IMHO ;)
Thanks for all your excellent Revo videos.......I've noticed that when I set the Attitude Estimation Algorithm to INS13 and there isn't sufficient GPS coverage the aircraft won't arm even when my mode switch has selected a non-gps mode, i.e. basic stabilized mode. Either I'm missing something very fundamental or the system has a rather large flaw in preventing flight under poor GPS conditions. Is this a known issue?
Sort of - not an issue, it's a safety feature that means that the craft will only fly if a GPS lock is there.. Best of luck!
A good safety feature at that but it shouldn't be coupled to non-GPS flight modes.....I think that's an oooops :)
Hi Painless. are you planning on doing a in depth video on Position Hold and RTB? I can't make the INS13 Algorithm to work (I have Revo mini from banggood)). I can't even take off, the quad goes crazy. All my alarms are green, calibrations goes smooth. I have good virtual horizon and good north. But when I arm and try to take off it simply does not stabilize. Sometimes is just rolls to one side till the props touch against the floor.
Using Complimentary algorithm everything works perfect, but off course I can't do any GPS flight modes with that.
Cheers,
+Marcos Paz other people have said this, it sounds like what was mentioned in the video, the magnetometer doesnt work well enough, too much electro interference from the board, painless didn't even try to use it with onboard mag. so i imagine it really needs an external mag/gps unit to work well. .. i might try this soon, when theres more info.
I was hoping for a magic "activate this option" solution lol. I guess I'll have to figure out how to compile the "next" branch of librepilot to use the ext. Mag.
Thanks!
+Marcos Paz yeah its pretty heavy work, wish librepilot asked me if i was an idiot first, and then gave me idiot options lol...'' ... its because it has so many abilities the jargon and technical chat gets out of hand very quickly... thanks painless360....
awesome vid again! I am keeping up with you building my hexacopter. do you have any idea when there will be the external magnetometer update?
thanks
+petabal no, hopefully soon!
Hi Painless are you planning to do a video on how to setup more than 3 flight modes in librepilot for openpilot revo using a taranis x9d plus?
+Siddharth Karkhanis I have a video on it in the APM/Taranis series..
Hi did you ever make a video of setting up flite modes for this cc3d revolution with GPS.
I have followed your other videos on it got the GPS to work .but having troubles with the flite mode.
I set stability loiter and RTL but it the other bits in it you have to set that giving me red errors so it won't start up .
I have looked all over the net for help with this I can't fined anything about it apart from the wiki which may aswell be in any other language.
I didn't do a lot with the CC3D EVO.. The stuff I figured out are in these videos. I'd strongly recommend that you use a modern flight controller Best of luck
This is what I getting.Config error on flite mode switch page.on flite data page in red is config and a red ? GPS is green I have set the home and set the ins13 in config and saved it
wondering if you could help me out. just got some 125 oneshot esc's is there any kind of steps I have go through to enable the oneshot With pwm cc3d openpilot ???
+SKYWALKER 808 we are using Oneshot125 with Librepilot in the series, seems the earlier videos.. Best of luck
Does the path planner mode also working foe fixed wing?
+Kartiko Nugroho it should do..
would the Turnigy Evolution have enough channels to use all of these flight modes?
See the video on the i6s flight modes in the playlist for the i6s style radios. You can assign up to 9 flight modes using a combination of two 3 position switches. In practice you'll end up only flying two or three regularly.. Best of luck!
thank you
return to base;
can we use 6 ch transmeter with 3 position swich s like (fly sky i6)
+sujeewa priyadarshani yes, you should be able to. Best of luck
where is select Altitude Estimation algorithm (gps nav ...) ?
Hello i try to install a gps on the revo in a racer in a way to install it after in our prototype but I can t get it stable since weeks 😩
Is it possible to get some help like a personal teaching ( I can take an airplane and able to pay what ever you whant )
I really need this work it s the last parts of my project
Thank you so much !!!
Are you using iNav? If it's GPS you're looking at then iNav is the better options - see that series..
when I set the GPS modes in free pilot , wanting to arm them motors ( right yaw ) , they do not respond ,
Usually it's because the arming setting in the GUI is defaulted to 'Always Disarmed'. Best of luck!
and as the gui fix that ???
Watch the CC3D setup videos - all covered in there ;)
As you know friend When magnetometer esta really well set ?? For mine almost always red one verces turns green , or must constantly be green
When will you post video 6?!? :)
When Librepilot fix the GPS and external compass support ;)
did the Magnetometer issue ever get resolved?
No idea. This is an old flight controller. Best of luck
youtube .. really wish there was a way to like a playlist, people like painless who are kind enough to create playlists of tutorials lose out on ''likes'' because its awkward to like each video individually.
Is there a tutorial for the path planner setup??
There isn't one.. I don't use CC3D anymore..
Oh no. Anyway May I ask if path planner is possible for CC3D revo?? I have looked up in one of your videos and you said it is possible. Currently, I have a CC3D REVO quadcopter equipped with a M8N Gps. The basic flights without gps is working fine, but when the GPS is activated, the drone doesn't seem to be moving. Do you have any idea what is going on? Thanks for your time.
This link might help with path planner:
librepilot.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/LPDOC/pages/84672520/Autonomous+POI+setup
If you have chosen PositionHold all you will get is Hold current position, no stick response except Yaw.
Try VelocityRoam it will Hold position, and you still have control with stick inputs.
Robertbruceb ohh I see! Can those functions work with just the GPS? By the way, my GPS is not fine when I test flying it. But in the librepilot software, it shows Green - which is fine.
Yes, Check the settings by choosing Configuration choose input,Flight Mode Switch Settings(TAB), Assisted Control, drop down and select "GPSAssist" for any Flight Mode that needs a GPS.
Can it be used in cc3d
Nope - see my CC3D series..
can we do this cc3d revo
+sujeewa priyadarshani this is a CC3D revo in the video.. ;)
@9:27. that's what she said
I have it in ( rightyaw ) And no I Answer : I do not understand what you mean ? I was armed and unarmed Set engines , but configured GPS Modes , Even without activating Modes (GPS ) armed unresponsive
Watch the CC3D setup videos - all covered in there ;)
I'd check the mag then - without a clean green set of lights it will not arm. That looks like the route of the problem. Make sure it's calibrated..
Friend the only way to make them work is to put direct But it is dangerous
