I keep a separate directory for each quad. I rename the files saved from the cli in the appropriate director, I remove the bf-cli stuff from the start of the name & add DiffAll-xxxx(version #) if it was a diff all. If it was a diff or dump it’s named according. I also have a file with just the OSD settings in it to make it easier to setup a new quad or when upgrading, that way I have the same OSD screen on all of them.

Honestly their support system is great too. Almost always they like to verify my wiring - just in case when I report a problem; so my guess is they would be able to explain some of the new features. For example, 'My VTX', Data over CRSF for VTX; OTA over CRSF for VTX updates - unify nano pro32, Dynamic Power; Dynamic Rate or 50/150 locking.

I have the TBS unify pro HV vtx so I did the corresponding vtx table set up but my issue is that file only has 3 power strength options. 25mw, 200mw, and 500mw. My vtx has 25,200,400, and 800mw ... And also when I put on the goggles I have OSD from the flight controller that looks great. But when I arm the OSD only starts to flicker on and off. Just the OSD text. When I throttle up it gets worse. Again just the OSD text.

If the quadcopter instantly flips over when you arm and raise the throttle with props on, it is almost 100% certain to be one of these things: 1. Clockwise prop installed on counter-clockwise spinning motor or vice versa. 2. Flight controller not facing forward. Go to the Setup tab in the configurator. Tilt the quadcopter on all axes (pitch, roll, yaw) with your hands. The 3D model in the configurator should move the same as you move it with your hand. If it does not, use the Board Alignment parameter in the Configuration tab to fix it. 3. Motors not wired correctly. TAKE OFF YOUR PROPS. Plug in a battery. Go to the Motors tab. Turn on the "props are off" slider in the lower-right. Raise the individual sliders (1, 2, 3, and 4) one at a time, just enough that the motor begins spinning. The motor positions (1, 2, 3, and 4) should match the graphic in the upper left. If they do not, then either move the signal wires so that they are correct or use resource reassignment to virtually "move" the motors. 4. Motor spinning wrong direction. Do the same as step 3 but compare the motor direction to the arrows on the graphic in the upper left. If a motor is spinning the wrong direction, either reverse it using BLHeli (or whatever ESC software you are using) or swap any two motor wires with each other, which will reverse the direction. Many times, people swear up and down they have checked all of these things, and then come back to say oops I missed one you were right. So if you think you have checked all of these things and your quad still FLIPS OUT, go back and check again. If your quad is insta-flipping on takeoff, it is almost always one of these things.

I guess that has nothing to do with BF 4.1 Gyro error ... You need to calibrate the gyro (also accelerometer) with stick command before arming and take off.

What’s the difference between diff and diff all ?
@pulquerofpv72094 жыл бұрын
Diff includes just the current profile and rate profile whereas diff all includes all profiles and rate profiles.

Because Im a beginner and dont fully understand this, could I just erase my BF 3.5.6 and just reflash with 4.1 and then do all my settings in BF ? Thx

Yes D Morgan's response is great. You really do learn as you re-configure these things. You explore each feature individually. The BF Configurator devs have also gone to great lengths to add lots of data to the little info bubbles in the GUI. I'm loving 4.1 on everything from whoops to 6inch.

Hi Joshua! I've just started flying thanks to You (really!) and after few flyouts with budget quad I tried to upgrade it to newer version of BF. I have to admit I'm lost a little in the options that are safe or not to carry over. Could You please help with it? Here is the link to file: pastebin.com/1RQgrdR5
