Solo Support On Flight Time

[Boogieman]

I hate to sound really stupid but where are you finding the APM Planner function? I have looked in the TOWER and the SOLO App but don't see it anywhere. :-(

Its under advanced parameter's.

 

[Mr GruntHunter]

Its under advanced parameter's.

I'm connected to SOLO Link and have Tower running, looked under Parameters but can't get anything to display. When I hit connect it says I'm not connected. I'm confused!

Everytime I press connect I get "Not connected, No devices found" yet I know I'm connected to SOLO Link

Are you finding this in Google Play? I'm use a PC and have a Samsung Galaxy S2 tablet running Android. What I pull up in Google Play doesn't look like what I see from the link you provided.

No those links are for a pc or Mac. I found those to work much better.

Once you load the program. And follow its directions to setup and see your 3dr solo. You will see parameters. Under advanced parameters there is one that says something like batt_cap

 

[Boogieman]

I'm sorry I'm not in front of a computer to fully walk you through it.

OK, got it downloaded and installed and have gone to setup but don't see 3dr solo showing up. I have the controller and solo powered up.

The directions show how to connect. I cannot remember with out seeing it. I am not able to get to a pc with it on it

Not that I remember. Have you followed their directions? As I stated I ain't no where near where I can see

I thought I have. OK, understand, maybe later?

 

[Boogieman]

I will try my best to upload a walk through on my YouTube when I can this evening. Unless someone else chimes in.

 

[Mr GruntHunter]

OK, Many Thanks. I'm in Florida but would be willing to make a landline call if you would be up to it.

Btw. You did connect your wifi to the solo right? Connect your pc to the solo wifi

 

[Mr GruntHunter]

Hmmmmmm let me go back and check on that.

Android android device with Solo & controller powered up:
Start Tower
Press "connect" If you can't connect, you need to troubleshoot connection. If you can connect the Solo app, Tower should also. If not, try shutting device off and back on. Try reinstalling app.
Press 3 bars, upper left corner
Press parameters
Parameters may or may not download now. If they stop, press anywhere on white portion of screen
Press on cloud with down arrow in upper right corner.
All parameters should download.
Scroll through list to BATT_CAPACITY.

I also found BATT2_CAPACITY but I don't know what that's for.

Hope this helps.
