Hi everyone, I have a very niche betaflight blackbox issues and, after trying everything I can think of, I am at a complete loss as to how to resolve it.
I have a SPEEDYBEE F7 V3 FC with onboard 500MB blackbox flash storage chip. When trying to access the blackbox data in mass storage mode the storage contains a number of files and folders that are of with nonsensical file size (ie >500MB) and gibberish names (ie r[2],mot.or[). When attempting to delete these seemingly corrupted files I am presented with errors stating the file no longer exists, or the PC cannot verify the files location (see images). Furthermore, LOGS that I have recently recorded cannot be loaded or read by Blackbox explorer.
The blackbox storage mode was working well previously; these files have only recently popped into existence. I believe this may all be related to a FC – ESC connection issues (loose wire causing repeated ESC / motor disconnections and reconnections) that immediately preceded these troubles.
I have tried deleting the FREESPACE E File and the LOGs / LOG folder when in Mass storage mode.
I have reflashing the board and resetting betalight configuration. All with no success
I believe that somehow wiping the data from the chip would resolve this issue however my PC wont let me delete files that it thinks do not exist :/
Is there a way I can delete this file or somehow force reset the onboard data chip? Or if anyone has any suggestion on how to resolve this issue? Any help would be appreciated!
