New in the Forum & on Traditional Helicopter with Arducopter

ArduCopter Traditional Helicopter
1

Hello, I used a lot arducopter on quadcopter and traditional helicopter without stabilizing electronics .

Now I’m approaching on helicopters controlled by arducopter, on Pixhawck rel 3.2.1, reading the documents - guides available in the main web site.

So I tried to setup, with hely setup in latest version of MissionPlanner, the servo travel, top & bottom values etc, at the end I push the save button on the screen but if I unconnect the mission planner and I cycle the power of the Pixhawk, I reload the parameters in mission planner but the previously saved values are, sadly, reset to the default values :cry: and the servos behavior reflects the undesired value reset.

Please could you indicate me where to found deeper details / procedure ? I’m doing something wrong ?

Thanks to all :smiley:

At a stab in the dark it sounds like a problem with memory on the board, I can’t remember if the parameters are stored to the boards flash memory or to the memory card, but it could be worth trying a different memory card. Is it a 3DR controller or one from another manufacturer? Are you clicking the ‘save’ button or ‘write’ button. One saves the parameters as a reloadable file to the computer and the other actually writes the parameters to the board. The only other thing I can think of might be to re flash the firmware and try again or try another board.
