Can't save blackbox log betaflight
#1
I'm having an issue with saving blackbox logs from my FCs. I first thought it was because my SPRacing clone FC was submerged that caused it not to save (the bar goes for a few seconds but then stops and stay there forever). But now I'm having similar issues with my Xracer V3.1 FC. The bar doesn't even start to move now. The SPracing is running BF 3.1.5 and the Xracer is running BF 3.1.3. Could it be an issue with the GUI? I'm on a mac.

Hm could be. Are you using latest configurator version?

I guess so. I tried to force update in the chrome extension tab and it didn't update to a never version. I'll try to uninstall and install to see if it changes anything

Tried to reinstall the BF GUI (1.9.1) with no luck. Flashed BF 3.1.5 and still not able to save. It looks like the FC is rebooting 5 seconds after i push save. If the BB log is small, then the bar starts going but stops once the FC reboot

Here is a short video with the problem. I have tried to lower the looptime to 1k/1k and disabled dshot to see if that could cause any issue but no

I just tried it on a windows PC and it works, I guess the problem is related to the mac drivers somehow

Afaik the problem was introduced when they increased download speed for blackbox logs. From reading your link to github-issue it looks like there's a patched version of configurator available somewhere.

the patched up version of BF configurator you mentioned fixes the problem for Mac users, the next official version of BF configurator will be released with this fix.

Thank you guys, I'll use my PC for now and wait for the next version of the configurator for the Mac. Btw, the spracing that was submerged is also working fine.
