ESC SCORPION AND PIXHAWK BEEPS

Posted by FABIO CARNEIRO LOBO on August 17, 2016 at 5:23pm

Hello.

I have got a Scorpion Commander 15V 60A SBEC ESC to use with pixhawk.

The problem is that it does not start: it keeps beeping as if has no signal from the controler....

I have tested the ESC direct to a reciver, and it works just fine. 

Have anyone ever put this two toogether: Scorpion 60A ESC and a Pixhawk controler? What I am doing wrong?

The old ESC was working fine, but I had to change because I put a bigger motor...

    Unfortunate. Did you select a differnt esc for yours yet that is compatible?

    Did you try this?

    1. Turn on your transmitter and put the throttle stick at maximum.
    2. Connect the Lipo battery. ...
    3. With the transmitter throttle stick still high, disconnect and reconnect the battery.
    4. For PX4 or Pixhawk, press and hold the safety button until it displays solid red.
    5. The autopilot is now in ESC calibration mode.

    Michael, unfortunately it seems that this esc is not compatible with pixhawk! The email sent to me from the Scorpion people shows this:

    _We don’t have any report about the pixhawk with our ESC, and I think the ESC is probably not compatible with the pixhawk_

    I'm having the exact same problem, tried setting mine up this weekend, getting the same noise - did you work this out yet?
