Just found the forum, looking forward to learning a lot browsing - I've been flying for about a year - and just now diving into betaflight settings, esc's, stacks and the more technical side of FPV. I've been doing more physical repair in the last year luckily. Nothing really on betaflight.

Drone: Rotor Riot prebuilt/tuned Cinewhoop
(https://tinyurl.com/rrcinewhoop)

Because i bought the prebuilt/tuned - i have little experience with what's on esc/flight controllers in order for them to function with a remote.

After a crash - one motor wasn't fully spinning up. Amateur me said maybe "re-calibrate" in beta flight and that'll work. I clicked reset settings - then had to select a motor profile - which i hadn't done before. Some googling and I select dshot150. Learn a bit about that in the process.

Disconnect drone - fire up the controller and drone and i'm not able to arm/connect or do anything with the remote.

I do see picture and can control the OSD on my goggles.

I hear 3 beeps then 2 beeps when i connect a battery.

Is there a world where i deleted something from the stack that allows it to talk to the airunit? Something that's a part of the "pre-tune" that it gets from Rotor Riot?

Or is my stack bad?

I don't believe it's related to the crash because i could control the drone after the crash - but not after my "reset settings".

Thanks for any input, if there's more info i can give let me know!

Obviously not much different haha. but you know. videos.

Unrelated crash - but one of my better bits of flying: https://youtu.be/adZCL0p4784?si=fnSUvgabHsgYK_gx

Thanks.

Yup. When you reset betaflight settings, you removed your receiver settings, among other things.

I’m not seeing a download page on rotor riot- so I’d suggest emailing them and asking for a “dump” and “diff all”.

Once you’ve got one of those you can paste it into the cli tab on betaflight and it’ll be back to how it was when you got it.

The other option would be us talking you through setting up betaflight from scratch, but, then you’d lose whatever tune rotor riot put on it.

Once you’ve either got ahold of that from rotor riot, or decide that you want us to talk you through setting up betaflight from scratch, we can try to sort out whatever the issue was that made you click reset to begin with.
