Leslie Newhouse replied to Harry's discussion Pixhawk use of AUX pin (55) to switch navigation light
"We have the same challenge. My channels 7&8 are used for gimbal knobs. I need to use channel nine to turn my Lidar Lite v2 on and off. It is already setup on AUX 6, pins 54 and 55. I am trying to figure out how to use a TX switch to toggle the…"

Leslie Newhouse replied to Leslie Newhouse's discussion While in Failsafe/RTL, switching to Loiter mode triggered an instant brownout and crash
"Thank for the reply, Max. That makes sense. I will preplan that protocol for the next exciting moment. The problem is the instant zero throttle setting. I need to find out what caused that and what will prevent it. It will take me several weeks to…"

My question is, “How can I avoid a repeat?”Log attached.DVR review:  While in loiter mode (116 ft altitude, 58% throttle), my quad went into RTL (116 ft, 58% throttle). I clicked into loiter. The throttle instantly reset to zero (111 ft). The quad…

"Okay, I'm brain dead. Switched the new Tx from mode 1 to mode 2. Arms and motors spin.

Johann, thank you for your help."

Leslie Newhouse replied to Leslie Newhouse's discussion Pixhawk will not arm
"Well, it says that there is no need to download that version because it is already on the board. Frustrating.     3.1.5 is on the board, not 3.1.2.   It will not let me try to upload it again."

Leslie Newhouse replied to Leslie Newhouse's discussion Pixhawk will not arm
"I have no clue as to which firmware to choose. It appears that there are versions for hexes, tri's, ect. I tried to look it up by clicking on the "download firmwares" icon, but that really gives a lot of confusing choices. Seems that the previous…"

"3.1.5 copter.
I tried to go to an earlier version in MP but could not figure out how to do it. Is there another way?"

Leslie Newhouse replied to Leslie Newhouse's discussion Pixhawk will not arm
"Johann, thank you for your quick reply.
Yep, that's what I had to do with my tricopter setup. I had to reverse the channel to arm correctly. I did try down & to the left on this quad/Pixhawk setup. It works no better than down and to the right.
I…"

Until I updated to the the latest stable firmware for quads, my Pixhawk worked flawlessly. When it would not arm, I changed the arming check to "0" (zero, not O or o), wrote the parms to the board, but the Pixhawk still will not arm. All the lights…
