Re: CPPM receiver with BigQuad deck on the Roadrunner

Reviving this thread... Got to a point, where I would like to use the CPPM and the Loco deck at the same time. I am trying to move the CPPM to PB6 (SCL of I2C1 by default), but my embedded programming skills are very limited. Since I2C1 is also used by the EEPROM, I would like to disable it and use ...

Re: Firmware development in Windows

Just a small update, following these instructions I was able to get it working also on a second PC with clean Windows 10 (ver 1903).
The USB driver issue is not present here.

@kimberly I can help to update the corresponding wiki page, should that be helpful...

Re: CPPM receiver with BigQuad deck on the Roadrunner

Thanks, Tobias, got it working following your instructions!
Obviously (although not obvious to me at first) I also needed to uncomment the previously commented lines as described here

Thrust still behaves a bit strange, will look at that tomorrow...

Re: Firmware development in Windows

Hi, Yes, am running cfloader natively under Windows, and use the libusb-win32 (v1.2.6.0) driver... But, I finally succeeded to flash! :D The issue seems to be related to my USB. I only have a single USB port (Surface Pro 4) so I use a USB hub. Apparently, it does not work through the USB hub (at lea...

Re: Firmware development in Windows

Ok, an update from me... I followed the WSL path as suggested by @theseankelly and am almost there, but flashing (over Crazyradio PA) still does not work... Haven't tried the debugger yet. These were my steps: In Windows: - Install Ubuntu WSL - Install python and set path - Install pip - Install git...

Re: Firmware development in Windows

Hey, Thanks a lot for sharing your workflow theseankelly! (my notifications were also not set-up correctly...) I will try it out in the coming days and come back here should I get stuck somewhere. Great to hear this now works fine from the Ubuntu WSL! Of course, if you managed to write up a tutorial...

Re: CPPM receiver with BigQuad deck on the Roadrunner

Hi Tobias, Thanks for your reply, only replying now as my notifications were not set up correctly... I have made the software and hardware changes as described under your link (only the first part as I don't plan to use the flow deck). I won't need the CPPM and the (integrated) Loco deck working at ...

Re: Improving documentation

Hey, I just started very recently with development using the Bitcraze hardware, and I think this is a great initiative! I agree with everything written in the blog post. For hardware, one central place where all the info is would be much better (now it is on the product page, in the shop, on the wik...

CPPM receiver with BigQuad deck on the Roadrunner

Hi, I have a Roadrunner board with the BigQuad deck, and have managed to hook up a servo that I can actuate via PWM, using the Android Crazyflie Client app. I have also connected a CPPM receiver, but no idea how to get that working. I would like to use CPPM signals as the main controller. Does anyon...
