Joel, Thanks for your input on this. The pinout for this accessory board is not similar to the standard accessory breakout board suggested by 3DR so Ser2 Rx and TX are across from each other on this board. It actually worked for me yesterday after swapping the green and white wires and PWM3 and4...

You are exactly right. The SYSID_SW_MREV parameter is back to 120. There were some other incorrect parameters that gets reset back to original values when SYSID_SW_MREV is changed to 0.

Hi, I am using a different breakout board to get telemetry data to flir vue pro. Please see the attached picture. I took the wires out of serial connector and put connectors on it to connect directly to headers on the board. I have couple of questions: Am i missing something in this setup? Does...

Yes, when I was trying to get telemetry data to Flir camera, I changed the SERIAL2 parameter and apparently as per the thread mentioned above, it somehow resets the SYSID_SW_MREV to 120 and changes the frame type, which is why solo is spinning around itself at take off. So one has to manually...

Yes, I am glad it worked. Also, the solo was spinning because of this issue (thread below). Glad I found this thread: https://3drpilots.com/threads/solo-spins-on-takeoff.2414/

Alright guys, thanks for all the help on this issue. I was able to resolve it this morning. Apparently, when I did the tear down to connect to Pixhawk via usb, the two pin connector (SDL and SDA) from the battery compartment to main board was not plugged in correctly when I put it back together...

Yes, I did that calibration. Now I am about to reset everything, update solo and controller through the app and give it another try with firmware solo 2.4.2 and autpilot 1.3.1. If the same problem persists, is there a hardware problem somewhere?

I also read something about flashing the SD cards in controller and solo. Does that help? If yes, how do I go about doing it?

To be exact, this whole mess started with me changing the Serial2_protocol to 1 and uploading to solo through tower app. Then the solo won't connect to controller and I read the thread here about firmware issue. So I installed 1.5.1 first and then 1.5.3 but nothing seems to be working fine after...

Thanks for looking at this. 1.bin was the last flight. I did do the calibration on compass and level after firmware upgrade but no luck. How do I calibrate the IMU? After last flight, solo won't even connect to tablet but it shows connected to controller.

Yes, the motors will turn on from throttle on the controller and from the tower app

Here is the link to the logs and bin files i downloaded this morning. Logs So I flew the solo by using sticks on the controller (fly still don't work) and it starts spinning in circles when it took it from ground. Can you please look at the logs and tell me whats going on? I did downloaded...

I tried arming without the props this morning but it doesn't show any messages when I press the fly button. Tried calibration but nothing worked.

Ok I am connected to Mission planner. Where do I need to look for errors or messages to figure out why the fly button is not working normally?

Hi, can anyone please help with this issue? I am trying to get telemetry data to Flir vue pro through accessory board. I bricked the solo first time by turning the serial_2 ON without updating the pixhawk firmware. With help from posts on this page, I was able to connect the pixhawk to Mission...
