Flywoo H743 PRO 512MB Flash

ArduCopter Copter 4.6
1

Hello everyone, I have a Goku H743 Pro controller with 512MB of flash memory, in a 4-inch frame. I ran QuickTune and it worked perfectly, but it’s not saving any logs to memory; they all have 0 bytes or are corrupted. What can I do to get the logs so I can use the web tools? Thanks.

Sorry for my English; I generated it with Google Translate.

Did You set LOG_BACKEND_TYPE?

Based on other reports of Flight Controllers with this type of flash (500MByte which appears as a non-removeable SD card) it has to be formatted. I don’t recall the tool to use but search the forum here. But to @Adam_Borowski question, what is the default value set to for backend type?

Addressed here I believe. Not sure if it’s back ported. Sd card based flash

Hi, I tried it with 1, with 4, and with 5, none of them worked.

Hi, I formatted the memory card with Mavproxy and it doesn’t work either.

I had the same issue on a recently bought Flywoo H743 Pro. I built custom firmware based on master branch which Dave’s PR is merged in and relates to. That worked fine for me with my backend type set to file. You can use mavproxy to format the sd card as well.

Try the Latest dev version of firmware from here: Flywoo H743 Dev

Hi everyone, thanks for your comments. I installed the latest developer version: Flywoo H743 Dev. I formatted the memory with Mavproxy and it’s working well for now. I’ll do some test flights this weekend and give you more details.

Hi! I have the same problem:
Hardware: Flywoo Goku H743 Pro Mini (onboard 500MB NAND flash, soldered)
Firmware: ArduCopter 4.8-dev (latest)
I tried different masks for LOG_BACKEND_TYPE (1, 3, 4, 5, 6) and tried erasing the logs both via the mission planner function and MavProxy, but none of those worked (Download DataFlash Log via Mavlink on mission planner shows no logs to download); in addition to that I also set LOG_DISARMED = 1 in order to test on my desk without needing to arm.
During the tests I followed this procedure:
Manual Erase All from Mission Planner DataFlash Logs page (completes without error)

  1. Reboot after erase
  2. Waited 30+ seconds with LOG_DISARMED = 1
  3. In Mission Planner Download DataFlash Log via Mavlink, the list is still completely empty, 0 files.

Thank you all in advance!

You should not need to change the backend type. Log erase will not do it - you need to format the sdcard - I don’t think there is an option in Mission Planner to do this, you will need to use mavproxy. Actually there is a way:

Hi, thank you for the quick response! I will check that in the next days and I will let you know if it worked!

Update: my Mission Planner wasn’t showing that particular action (Format_SD_Card) but i used MAVProxy with the formatsdcard command and it works! Thank you very much!

It probably will if you update Mission Planner to latest Beta.
