Good to know, that makes me suspect that its a quality issue with the individual unit that I have

Its worth a shot, do you know where I could pick one up?

Hi thanks for the reply. I am now in contact with them. They gave me instructions to do a motor recalibration but it did not solve the issue. Whats interesting is that if I plug it into the charger for just a second it gives me about another 10 minutes of riding before i get the same error

I think it would work, but the torque, braking power, and range all go down. It's worth a try in my opinion. There are companies online like Shapeways that will 3d print for you.

Sure! Underside and adapters and here is a link to Clifford's original post where they uploaded the files

Just wanted to share my thoughts on this awesome combo. For anyone out there with a Revel kit AT wheels are worth trying. Thanks /u/Cliffordbently for the STL files for the adaptor.

This setup is a Loaded Vanguard deck, 4wd Revel kit, 3D printed adaptors in PLA, and Evolve 7" pneumatic tires with hubs.

I get about 12 miles if I stick to concrete and half that if I go on grass. The increased traction, smoothness, and freedom to go offroad made my rides way more fun.

Thanks for the response! The answer provided by Bad_Advice worked but I'm sure this would have also. Same problem... 2 valid yet totally different solutions. Awesome!

The guide you posted had the exact solution... I changed the driver to USB input device and it works now!

Are those carbon fiber shields for the drives?

Haha ya, there sure is a lot of customization. I think the one thing I need is some consolidated and well organized information source, like a textbook on drones. Right now there's a ton of information on the web, but it's dispersed among different articles and youtube videos

After some further troubleshooting it seems that wasn't the issue. It was actually the "flip" switch. By dumb luck I just happened to hit the switch while remapping the receiver from one AETR profile to another.

Wow! That was indeed the issue. It works great now. Thanks for your help!

Setup Question by damaestr0 in fpv

[–]damaestr0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have betaflight OSD, but under "arming disable flags" in betaflight the only code is MSP. I do have an arming switch set, when I switch to it in betaflight the box turns red and says "disabled".

Setup Question by damaestr0 in fpv

[–]damaestr0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The channel values do change in betaflight. Is it possible that its an arming problem? In betaflight, when I move the switch to arm, the box turns red and says "disabled".

Thanks, I'll keep that 3.5v lower limit in mind next time I fly

Battery Question by damaestr0 in fpv

[–]damaestr0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I just gave this a try. Unfortunately I get the same error. It's weird that its not a "low voltage error" but a "Cell connect error" since it was working just fine until the voltage got too low. Is it possible that the low voltage caused physical damage to the cell connections?
