2.4 -> 2.3

Posted by Frank de Beijer on March 5, 2012 at 10:09am

Gents,

 could anybody inform me how to change from quad to hexa after downloading 2.3 by using Arduino?? The command setup] frame hexax does not seem to work.

Sorry for asking but I am really new and 2.4 is not working for me so I need to get back to 2.3. Communicating using the MP is OK but the exact command is hard to find for me. I bought a Hexa kit from DIY drones and did a single test flight in 2.3.

I installed the arducopter.pde file from the download session

    Frank,

          you need to add a line like this to your APM_Config.h:

                   #define FRAME_CONFIG HEXA_FRAME

         also if you're compiling for an APM2 you'll find there's another line a little higher up that needs to be uncommented:

                   #define CONFIG_APM_HARDWARE APM_HARDWARE_APM2

     

         if you're on windows you will need to use the arduino with the "relax patch" which you can find in the download area.

     

         hope that helps!
