QX7 - No files shown on SD CARD page
#1
I'm attempting to set up the crossfire Lua scripts on my QX7. I upgraded the firmware to 2.2.1 and downloaded the latest QX7 sd card contents onto a 1gb micro sd card. When I put the card into the radio, fire it up, and page over to the SD CARD page, it's blank like the card is empty. I've verified the card's contents multiple times.

What gives?

Problem solved. Use FAT32 (MS-DOS) format when wiping the card. The radio was unable to read the default Mac OS Extended format using by Disk Utility.

With so many things not compatible with Mac OS (this drives me insane) I have resorted to buying an old secondhand laptop (running windows) off a friend to use for all my quad related apps and things. Takes the hassle out of having to run VM's or Wine etc, and it was cheap enough to leave on my workbench and not worry about it getting dirty.

Yeah, these days it's rarely an issue. Mac OS can set up a card with the fat32 file system no problem, I was just being dumb. The only time using a Mac has been problematic recently was when I need to set up a set of blheli_32 escs. That required me to resurrect my old Windows VM, so not a huge pain in the butt.
