reboot after adjusting servo min/max/center ??

[Robpower]

Hi,

Question, I have a solo with Open Solo 3.0.0 installed and working fine. I have a servo attached to RC6 and a servo on RC7 and they operate fine but if I try and change the min/max or center in mission planner and upload I see no change.

Do you need to reboot the solo after these changes or am I missing something very simple, just trying to reduce servo throw on both servos

thanks in advance, Rob

Does Mission planner prompt you that the values are not correct or out of range when you try to change them?

Or Perhaps shoot @Pedals2Paddles a conversation, those values may be hard-coded scripts as the controller communicates with Artoo or something to that effect channel 6 is the gimbal tilt paddle and channel 7 is the brake...

Thanks for the reply, mission planner does not prompt me, it accepts the new numbers I type in and when I upload to my solo they just don't change. I have tried minimal increments and maximum increments of change and don't see any change.

Yeah I'm pretty sure its how the controller talks to the solo I'm thinking it goes through a stick cal when it starts and reverts to the hard coded settings I could be totally wrong @Pedals2Paddles aka Matt is the guy to grill on this one maybe he will chime in if his time permits

There might be another parameter to set to get the throw you need, it might not have anything to do with the servo min max settings..I.E. you can tell the gimbal or in your case the servo to tilt/move a certain degree by pressing the right 2 buttons on the front of the controller for up and down set points.. this may or may not work?? I actually was able to set certain stop points on my controller tilt buttons to achieve certain modes on my Solo-Rover-1 I.E. click up hold or down to set manual...

Thanks again, I will send @Pedals2Paddles a message, he suggested I go to Open Solo 3.0.0 which I have been very happy with, just trying to tidy up this last piece of the puzzle

Yeah he would know good luck...
