Error on boot when trying VTOL-quicktune LUA script

Hawk_Airborne · June 25, 2022, 2:23am

I am looking to try the new VTOL-quicktune LUA script. I followed the instructions and put the script on the SD_Card and set the SCR_ENABLE=1. Upon rebooting the Cube Orange FC I am getting an error on the HUD. xpected symbol near ‘<’ Do I need to increase the SCR_HEAP_SIZE to accommodate this script or am doing something else wrong.

Kind Regards,

Perry

The error message says "unexpected symbol near ‘<’. ". I guess the lua script is not properly copied and saved on the SD card, caused this syntax error? The script should look like this if opened by text editor.

Please check here. Quadplane and tailsitter tuning pages are updated how to use.

# VTOL QuickTune

This script implements a fast VTOL tuning system for multicopters and
quadplanes. This script can be used to automate the process of
producing a good "manual tune" for the VTOL rate control parameters.

The script is designed to be used in QLOITER mode for quadplanes or
LOITER mode in multicopters, although it can also be used in other
VTOL modes.

# Parameters

The script adds 7 parameters to control it's behaviour. The parameters
are:

## QUIK_ENABLE

this must be set to 1 to enable the script

## QUIK_AXES

I downloaded it straight from the link below and transferred it directly to the SD_Card from the cube. I wondered if the transfer process went wrong so I downloaded it a second time and saved it straight to the SD_Card. Same error both times.

Make sure you have the raw file not the html.
