Can you force a 'RE-INIT" or "BIND" at startup?

could this be a compiler problem? I'll try the nightly build later today and post back

ok i tried the nightly build from the site of 9686f9e and again there is no auto binding of any of the WK protocols at startup, but now i can't even get the 2401/2801 to bring up the binding screen by choosing the re-init button and pressing enter, no matter where i hold the sticks, has anyone else tried the nightly in their 7e?

Nightly 9686f9e

I can't bind to my walkera 4#3 anymore, proto wk-2401.

No binding screen at power up and nothing when re-init.

Strange thing I am able to change the transmission power even tough I don't have the diode mode done.

I was under the impression that in that case the the power indication was "default" and not editable.

Edit: tested with devo10 and deviation 3.0, bind ok and fly ok (30sec hover).

Definitely a bug on latest build.

Edit 2 : Devo 10 Nightly 9686f9e

Binding screen present at power up and re-init.

Bind ok, fly ok.

Definitely a 7E bug.

Is there already a ticket on bitbucket ?

thanks for the infor bud, no I didn't create a bug yet as I hadn't receieved any confirmation that anyone else had this issue, as pb's 7e works as expected so it may have been an issue only with my 7e. I will create a bug later today if someone else hasn't already done so.

Do you have some weird effects? I have added four LEDs in my Devo8 just for fun, trying to light them up according to the flight state (on unused ports with an ULN2003 driver). I have tested this with a completely disassembled tx and mounted only the necessary parts for testing (board, lcd, power switch, shoulder switches). Everything was fine.
But when I assembled the tx again I controlled the right stick's signals with the switches, not with the stick itself: switch on = green LED on = AIL 100%, other switch on = blue LED on = ELE -100%.
I removed the LED code and let the ports floating. With this I could control the blue and green LEDs with ELE/AIL...
I soldered the wires to other outputs. Now the green and blue LED only light up when ELE/AIL is near to +100%. But I had to recalibrate the sticks to get them working.
Seems to me as if the board was only designed for a single purpose (of course) and is not very stable to changes. Sometimes simply the use of other outputs could disturb other lines, esp. the ADC. Maybe this is one reason for the touch screen issue we had a while ago on some Devo12.

pb that has indeed fixed both wk2401 and wk2601, these both now display the binding screen at boot, and also when pressing the 're-init' button.

wk2801 also displays the binding screen when pressing the 'bind' button, but it does not display the binding screen on boot.

i don't know if that is expected behaviour for the wk2801 setting, but imo the 24 and 26 now work perfectly

I can confirm Harry findings on 2401, but, isn't there always a but...

Extra switches aren't behaving anymore.

I have 3x1 installed, and I now have again :

SW A and SW B showing on the channel monitor and not behaving correctly, i.e. when manipulating SW A it also change SW B.

Switch up :
SW A0 -100 SW A1 100 SW A2 -100
SW B0 -100 SW B1 -100 SW B2 100

Switch mid :
SW A0 -100 SW A1 100 SW A2 -100
SW B0 -100 SW B1 100 SW B2 -100

Switch down :
SW A0 -100 SW A1 -100 SW A2 100
SW B0 -100 SW B1 100 SW B2 -100

Can you confirm Harry ?

nope my one is working as usual, i pulled then updated to 40570bf then did the change posted by PB and built it and my 1x3way switch works as normal, i've just posted a new build to my build thread of ac641d3 which is the latest commit and fixes the wk* protocols binding screen appearance, and the switches still work as expected. can you try building the latest code again or try my build and see how things are then?

I did build latest commit :ac641d3

As I am using Sebastian VM ,I build without standard GUI, but telem, perm timer, layout editor, so it can fit.

I'll try your build and report back, maybe one of the diodes is dead.

Edit: Something wrong with my build, it's working now.

Thank you Harry

no problems, but it's PB we should be thanking

It goes without saying... but thx PB

I try your build ac641d3 and have no problem with DSM2, 2406 PROTOCOL, but I cannot bind the DEVO (SUPER CP)and the 2801 (GENIUS CP, 120D02S) PROTOCOL.

Is there another version that works with Walkera protocol ?

Thanks

I was flying my devo v120d02s earlier this afternoon with no issues at all, I don't have any models on the wk* protocols so I can't test those but I know for sure that devo, dsm2, dsmx, hisky and hubsan are all working in my most recent build. perhaps others may have issues with the wk* protocols and will post here but I can't help with them

Just tested super CP with the build Harry put in his thread, it works well bind and fly ok.

Did you compiled your own build or used the one Harry did ?

Edit: I'm sorry I must be blind or something, just braille read it again and saw you used Harry's one

Yes I can force a RE-INIT or BIND at startup and I have the binding screen or re-init screen. Before deviation software I were flying the 120D02S and the GENIUS CP with a 2801pro Tx. Then I try to bind thoses with 2801 protocol with deviation and forcing the BIND screen (Binding...)but it didn't bind and the red led on Rx flash all the time. Same with the GENIUS CP.

With the 2601 protocol, I can force a Re-Init and it bind, both the 120D02s and the GENIUS CP but the swash mix is not good with both. For exemple if I push the throttle stick, only two servos goes up (pitch and ail or ele). There is always one servo that don't move ail or ele. If I push ail stick, pitch and ail or ele servo move (pitch should not move and ail and ele should move, one up and one down)

I have tried all the swash type (1servo, 3servo120 etc) and in the WK2601 protocol all the possibility (5+1, HELI etc). Cannot resolve the swash mix mix.

With the SUPER CP, nothing I can do to bind it with tx deviation

Long story for but short result

Anyways thanks for answering

Robert

Witch protocol do you use ?
Did you buy your Super CP as a kit with the 7e ?

your issues sound more like setup problems rather than build problems, have a look in the model configs forum and see if you can find any model ini's for your specific heli's that will give you a start on setting them up >> deviationtx.com/forum/model-configs

Yes Super Cp with devo7E but never flow it on the stock firmware, I upgraded to Deviation as soon as I opened the box.

I have another two bnf and all work fine with latest revision of deviation, I think Harry is right you should check your config.

I don't know about the 2801 proto since I can't put my hands on the only 4G6 I have that is 2801 compatible (somewhere in a box).
