Hi there,
I would like to ask if anything in Mission Planner needs to be changed after reversing the motor direction by flashing the ESC with Blujay in the ESC configuration.
After making the reverse, the motor stopped rotating altogether.
Thanks in advance.
How did you do that?
Change in ESC configurator in ESC1-4 field Normal->Reverse.
One additional update:
So then motor stoped to work but aftet ESC calibration in Mission Planner, motor started to work but direction stay the same as it was.
Probably the question is in how motors are configured. I have frame QUAD X setuped and motors are configured as:
And if started to use test motor a and etc, it seems like everything is according to QUADX in the pictures here:
https://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/connect-escs-and-motors.html
When I am trying check the order in Mission Planner there is a button “TEST A”. Does this “TEST A” corresponds to MOTOR1 in the picture Connect ESCs and Motors — Copter documentation (QUAD X frame ) ?
Page down in that link to “checking the motor numbering…” for the answer.
Then I’ve configured everything well from motor order point of view. In Servo Output I have the following order:
M4 ( A )
M1 ( B )
M2 ( C )
M3 ( D )
( but in the picture from the doc the order is 1 4 2 3 )
And when I press TEST A → top right is rotating
TEST B-> bottom right
TEST C → bottom left
TEST D → top left
But the drone is doing backflip: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mqkNMBsRceGg0ZW7biLVMKZMPOZ53EcA/view?usp=sharing
I think that the issue is that I have AHRS_ORIENTATION=4 for some reason what is not true and should be 0 in my case.
Of course that will do it if it’s wrong.
