Import v4 firmware model to v3 firmware

More
19 Jan 2014 20:55 - 19 Jan 2014 21:12 #18718 by Tom Z
When I import a v4 model into v3 I then get a message: Ch3 is 0% safe value = -100% or Ch1 is 0% safe value. This message didn't happen in the v4 model so something changed importing it.

The converted v4 ini file still has [safety] Auto=min so I shouldn't get the message. Also flight mode switch is on FMODE0.

What can I do to correct the message?



Here is a v4 model.

Here is the same model as above after it has been imported into the v3.
The GUI is gone which is OK I can add it. But now there is a safety message I can't correct.

You cannot import V4 models to V3 (without basically rewriting it). Deviation is backwards compatible (mostly) but not forward compatible. The reason is that switches are handled completely differently in V4 vs V3.

Most likely the fmoode switch isn't applying to the throttle because of the above. What is the situation in which you want touse a V4 model on a V3 Tx anyhow?

OK thanks.
People have asked me if my v4 models will work in v3 as they have not upgraded to v4. I told them I would check into this and now I know what to tell people.

I deleted all my v2.1 models posted.
All my new models posted are for v4 only.
