About Me:
Retired Comms engineer with a Quad flying & amateur radio hobbies.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
Started with a DJI Phantom, then built two of my own Quads using DJI controllers and an assortment of motors, Esc's and propellors. Bought a Nova, flew it 4 times and now it does not want to arm the motors

"I thought that something was amiss there as it was far too long to wait for it to arm.
Glad you discovered the issue and now it is resolved.
But as you said, best to lock in the satellites before you take off just in case you loose it or it goes out…"

"That is quite a long time to arm the bird. I do not have this issue with the replacement unit that I received. However I have to add a point that I have recently experience and have been able to repeat...........

"Hi Rich
Thought I would give you a heads up on what actually was wrong with the Quanum Nova...... I actually tested the TX transmission using my spectrum analyser and although it starts, it would not continue transmission in frequency hopping mode.…"

And by the way, mine is also stuck in RTL mode but no matter how many times I switched the transmitter on and off, it is not return to standard mode.

"Mmmm.....don't like the sounds of that. I am going to give it a try anyway and at the same time I am going to investigate further around the RTL - RTH mode using MP. I will let you know how I go.
BTW you are right about the plastic being weak and…"

"I wonder how it decided to change on its own. I had never connected to Mission Planner till the copter failed to arm. So I am sure that MP never caused this issue. I can also comment that using my spectrum analyzer I noticed a huge difference…"
"Thanks for the link, it is a long video but quite informative.
I have tried again to see if the unit will arm but like yours it just does not fails to do so.
I have actually received a reply from HK today and I think this is a wide spread issue.…"

"Yes it connects as follows: Black to 1, Red to 2 and white to 3. The picture tells a 1000 stories...DSC02849.jpg"
"Hi Rich, Happy to add the text I discovered on binding the Nova. None the less, it is still a little confusing as it seems that the Rudder's bottom pin is one bind position but bind to which other pin??
Anyway, here it is:

I have only managed to fly my new Quanum Nova 5 times. Now it has fails to arm the motors. I have checked both the transmitter & receiver and have noticed that the receiver stops flashing red once the TX is switched on. Have read a few blogs and…
