We pulled your changes to our fork. We then were able to activate ratemode a the first go.
Much thanks for for the quick fix!

Re: Activating RateMode on CF2
Thank you for your quick answer. I already wondered because i didn't find the piece of code where the switching between ratemode and anglemode is happening.

Activating RateMode on CF2
Hi, i'd like to start tuning PID Parameters for improving flight characteristics of the crazyflie. We are using the crazyflie controller with a 250 size quadrocopter frame with brushless motors. For the tuning we tried to put the controller in ratemode. Therefore we changed parameters "stabiliz...

Re: Uncontrolled Motor Spinup
Additionally we created a pull request on the bitcraze/crazyflie-firmware github with revised comments for the default mapping and a corrected timer for PA7. We decided to use timer 14 channel 1 and propose this change for the master branch, since it is unlikely someone wants to use cppm and simulta...

Re: Uncontrolled Motor Spinup
Just tested our setup with TIM14_CH1 on DECK_MOSI Pin.
Now everything works very well, we don't even need the dead band on input channels
Many thanks for your great help!

Re: Uncontrolled Motor Spinup
Thanks for your help! We already checked if each motor output pin has its own timer channel and at this point we didn't find any conflict. But only taking account of the comments in code, not the actual allocation! Regarding STM32 datasheet, the real timer mapping is following: DECK_TX2_TIM2 --> TIM...

Re: Uncontrolled Motor Spinup
Today we made a few more tests. We took our firmware where eeprom test failed, but with untouched bigquaddeck motormapping. As described, sometimes initialisation was succesful and we were able to fly the crazyflie with Taranis radio. The control was very good without any issue. Then we only changed...

Re: Crazyflie doesn't resume task after function call systemWaitStart()
We already noticed, that in the firmware, UART2 is not the same thing as hardware USART2 of the STM32. For our SBus functionality we added a uart3.c in drivers folder, which configures hardware USART1 of STM32 processor. So RX Pin was mapped to PIN59, which is E_SDA, also used by EEPROM. This seemed...

Re: Uncontrolled Motor Spinup
First of all thank you for the clarification regarding the motormapping. The commented section caused quite some confusion. Monitoring the output with a scope showed us, that althoug the logging claims to raise M1 and M3 speed, the actual output was only increasing on motor 1. Reconfiguring our Radi...

Uncontrolled Motor Spinup
Hi, for our project we want to implement sbus capabilitys on the CF in combination with the Bigquad Deck. In order to free up USART 2_RX we want to remapp motor output 4 and use the USART 2_RX to read the SBUS signal. In order to provide easy connection possibilities for our brushless ESC's we decid...
