I am using Matek H743-MINI V3 H743 Flight Controller on one of my quadcopters. Quite happy with it but it seems like not all parameters are supported. Is there an alternative FC more complient and cheaper. I have also tried Speedybee F405 V4 but was not successfull.
ANy recommendations for an affordable and ardupilot complient FC.
its an h743 so everything is supported, what is it specifically you cant find on it? a lot of settings wont appear until you enable the device.

I have already installed and using the drone but when I connect to the drone with QGroundcontrol from my phone or tablet application displays a message not all parameter displayed. Whwn I look at the feature text in https://firmware.ardupilot.org/Copter/stable/MatekH743/features.txt
some parameters have “!” mark not sure if those are the not implemented parameters.

QGC on mobile devices is somewhat limited. Recommend using Mission Planner on a desktop computer for initial setup.
Which of those missing features do you want? Many of them are disabled because that hardware is simply not present on the board.
You are using one of the most fully featured and affordable autopilots on the market.

I agree it is excellent, any one has an experience with SpeedyBee F405 V4. I have tried to buıld an Arducopter with one but I guess firmware is not mature yet. Speedybee F405 V4 very afforable and has good features any opinion on that FC stack

It’s an F4… Now we could talk about feature limitations.

I wonder ıf speedybee will ever be usable for arducopter. I build different copters just because I am facinated with software and technology not much of a pilot. I would not mind understand how I can make modifications to fix speedybee branch of software.

People are using them. The V3 version anyway. I understand Bdshot will not work.
But when there are H7’s available from Matek and Holybro for a bit more I don’t see the motivation to use them.

FWIW I have one of those GPS/Compass modules on a Matek H7 board and it works well enough.

V4 should be fine - let me know how you get on - it’s a different target. bdshot is fixed

Just posting output is not helpful. Provide more details about what you think is not working and what your setup is. I can post output showing a speedybeef4v4 working just fine.

Very basic setup
Speedybee f405 V4
FLYWOO GOKU GM10 Pro V3 GPS w/compass
and 4x YSIDO 2507 1800KV motors.
I could calibrate my receiver which is Flysky FS-A8S - GPS works.
Failed to calibrate compass.
I could not test the motors.
Could you tell me your setup may be I can replace the components to get my configuration working.
As I stated previously INAV 7 RC2 works just fine. so there is no wiring or connection problem.
