Difference between Naze32 Rev6 versions: 6, 6A, 6B
#1
Why there are so many revisions with the Naze32 Rev6? 6, 6A, 6B? Any detailed descriptions anywhere? Something with USB power passthrough or what's the difference?

The difference between these revisions are:

6 has no diode, so the ESCs ended up being powered from the USB 5v line, and pass-through ESC programming doesn't work
6a has issues with the spektrum port
6b fixed the issue with the spektrum port

But every revision works well as an FC, and passthrough works fine in the later 2 revisions.

I'm able to do ESC programming on mine, FYI, works fine.

ESC pass-trough works on rev6, standard ESC callibration doesn't - motors go full throttle after plugging the lipo in.

It was! Luckily I had no props on, when I learned it Wink
I callibrated manually by passtrough.

EDIT: there is some method of lowering min command or setting values trough CLI but meh...
Another EDIT: I remember if I set throttle values wrong in blheli it went into callibration mode, but I got strange values this way. They also were out of sync.

On that topics, Konrad or Josh can you advise on this?

No problem Oscar.

Damn, I had trouble recalling how the hell my motors started after plugging that lipo. Then I remembered I was using old ESC as a BEC - that one probably fed 5V to vbat and that was enough to initialize the littlebees. So if anyone has a rev6 and a crappy BEC, beware Smile

I just disconnect the 5v (middle) wire from FC-to-ESC control cable temporarily. Then plug in USB and proceed with "normal" calibration.

is it possible to add the diode to the initial rev6 to have like function and what diode would it be a standard schottky diode?

Is it possible to identify the revision of a naze32 v6 board just by looking at it? I see many sellers selling these naze32 v6 without mentioning anything about what revision it is.
