Seraphi quadcopter

Posted by Vince Grande on December 26, 2014 at 10:54pm
I have purchased a seraphi p quadcopter 5 months ago and have not been able to got it at all. It is a RTF model with gps,compass. I had noticed one motor did not turn on start up sometimes, and did an esc calibration. But after a while it stopped turning all together. The company send me motor and esc to replace myself and I calibrated it, tried to fly and it kept on flipping over. Then I plugged it to mission planner and tied the compass and acceleration calibration, which did not help. I tried to reinstalled the Quadcopter firmware and ever since the mavlink does not connect,says hear eat packettenot found, does nah hone know anything I can do,thanks

                  As I said....I watched the video....the method demonstrated to start the quad (arm the motors) is not the same as what the ArduCopter software uses.  That made me question if it was running ArduCopter firmware.  

                  And for what it is worth, 3.1.1 AC is not the latest firmware.

                  Have you tried accessing the board using Mission Planner's terminal mode?
