Betaflight Mac OS Not seeing USB
#1
Hello, 

I'm trying to connect my Betafpv Cetus Pro to betaflight on my MacBook Pro.  Its has the latest MacOS.

What ever I do all I get is Failed to open serial port. ie No connection.

I've also tried to install CP210 drivers but they don't seem to help.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Morgan.

Check your cable. You should not need to install any driver on a Mac.

Hi Voodoo, thanks for the suggestion, I've tried several cables and still nothing.

I'm sure they're right as they're from my Samsung ssd drives which are for data and power.

Just to make sure I'm not doing something stupid, I just connect it with out the whoop battery connected?

Thanks, 

Morgan.

what options so you have in the pull down menu (upper right) in BFC above the auto-connect toggle?

and yes, you don't need the battery to be connected. you can also try connecting with battery to see if that works.

No I don't have another fc to check, I don't see anything on the drop down menu, tried the battery. Maybe see if I can find another fc to check. 

Thanks.

Have you tried resetting the USB ports on your Mac?

Shut down the computer. Turn the computer back on. Hold the "Command-Option-P-R" keys together before the gray screen appears until you hear the startup sound for the second time. Release the keys.
