Hey guys,
First I want to say that I am a total newbie. I literally received the batteries for my drone today and was excited that I was succesful in binding my Nazgul5 V2 with my Taranis QX7.
Then I remembered a video of Joshua Bardwell about betaflight. So with the help of this link: I tried getting everything setup.
I installed all drivers and had everything running.
The drone seemed properly connected but then I heard Joshua say, that I should flash it. So AFTER making a backup of the default settings (which I still have), I flashed it.
The bootloader worked fine and I selected the correct target: STM32F7X2 I selected the newesr version and the flashing and installing started.
Everything worked fine. The drone reconnected to my pc and then I noticed the first issue:
I got a warning that there was no motor protocol selected.
I closed it and immediately noticed something else, the gyro and accelerometer (in the top bar) weren´t yellow anymore. So basically Betaflight doesn´t seem to receive any gyro info, because when I move the drone. The 3D visualization just sits perfectly still. This wasn´t the case before flashing it.
Then I proceeded into the port section and noticed that there is not a single UART port being listed. (I don´t know if there were any before flashing).
I haven´t even looked further into BF, because I first wanted to fix the gyro/acc issue. So the first thing that came to mind was just trying to reinstall the original file. So I went into CLI and tried doing exactly that via the `load from file` option. Then this happend:
2021-03-10 @ 23:44:43 -- CLI mode detected
2021-03-10 @ 23:45:08 -- CLI reboot detected
2021-03-10 @ 23:45:08 -- Device - Rebooting
2021-03-10 @ 23:45:08 -- Unrecoverable failure of serial connection, disconnecting...
2021-03-10 @ 23:45:08 -- Failed to close serial port
And now I´m sitting here with my new drone. Realizing that I NEED HELP. What did I do wrong and how can I fix it. I really hope that I didn´t screw anything up.
Thanks you all for taking the time and reading all my stupidity.
