Holy crap!!! This video is fucking awesome!!! Please make more!!! Since the companies that make quadcopter stuff can't be bothered to provide any product manuals I have to scour the internet searching for instructions. I've watched well over a hundred hours of UA-cam videos on this stuff and hands down this was the most complete, concise and helpful video I've ever come across. Seriously, make more videos.
Thank you so very much. I couldnt figure out why my Controller wasnt saving the settings..I wasnt holding down CANCEL TO SAVE..I hope this helps someone else who missed that...Excellent video. This was my first drone experience and it went a lil rough for me getting the firmware to flash...after i downloaded every singe USB driver i could and my motherboards USB driver...BOOM IT WORKED!!!!!! It took 5 hours...at on point I thought to myself...this drone is gonna fly outta my hands into the wall when I throw it....but I kept with it and it worked!!!
Thank you so much man. I searched through a lot of tutorials that, while helpful, had a lot of steps like "Just do X, its pretty easy" but skipped over the step. While manageable, it can be frustrating. As a complete beginner I'm not intuitive enough to know how to do those steps right. I appreciate you showed us everything, and actually seeing what is being done helps me know what to do next time. Cheers!
Just wanted to say THANK YOU~~! No one has a video that shows you to connect your receiver to the power pin / channel 1. Everyone says connect to ibus servo, but that is WRONG it does not work. I dont' know how anyone got it to work with ibus because I couldn't do it for hours on end trying. And some how I found your video and it was the correct video. I hope everyone watches this video on the setup. All the other videos are wrong. I'm still a noob but heck I've learnt something today Your a life saver buddy! Double Thumbs up
upicks Hey Dude, Just want to say a big thanks for the positive comment! I'm happy it's helped you out and hopefully you can get to the field and start flying :) If you ever need any help just drop me a comment. Anyway have an epic day! Peace A x
I just brought a x220 second hand got it home and somehow I did something it wouldn't arm wouldn't power up I followed your video and BING PERFECT !!! its now just past midnight but my new Quad is ready to roll! I cant wait for my first day of flying tomorrow!! thank you so much!
True Funny Thanks dude for the positive comment. What a great bit of kit for the price hope you have fun. If you get stuck feel free to drop a comment. I will be doing an advanced betaflight set up soon for this so keep an eye out. Peace A x
This video is literally the only video on the web that is correct and works! Thank you so much, I have been messing around with this thing for 12 hours and finally I am ready to go fly thanks to you!! Cheers
That’s for the tips,as I got my wizard last night ,and gonna follow your set up tonight after work,and fingers crossed I hit up the park this weekend..
thanks :) I got an Eachine x220 and FS16 controller..and then it all went blank and no action, until I followed your video instruction. Very very informative :)
Thanks heaps Adam, I've watched about 40 vid's on how to set my Wizard up and everyone has a critical piece of info missing at the wrong time or has a different set up. Yours finally got me there. woohoo
Man you just saved my afternoon, my quad wasn't responding to my transmitter, everything was set except the betaflight firmware wich was to old, I put the last one like you said and gooooo ! Thanks again you're a beast
Thank you!!! What an excellent vid! The best set up guide on you tube. All the others think every ones a pro already at set ups and just run through at 100mph. Thank you

hi this is to tell you that for some time I was looking for how to reconfigure my drone to my controller and this is where I came across your video, thank you very much for this tutorial so as you say good flight
Thank you so much!! I watch about every other setup video and had zero luck. This with the help of this video I was able to get everything setup perfectly!
Great job man thank you soon much. watched a lot of videos but none seemed to work before yours. i'm going from dpi to an x220 so its been a learning curve. is there a way to set the switch on the controller to hover (so i don't have to constantly give it throttle to stay up)?
men you saved me, 4h I'm trying to get it working, but I had a problem with ibus that they use in all the others video but it finally works with ppm, thanks a lot
Excellent man going to go thru this when I get mine, got the video saved for reference. Whats the selection you made in the first drop down box on which version you have? Blheli_S F3? How do you know or its all the same for the x220s? Looking at the current listing for the x220 on banggood. Thx
You should plug the receiver cable into the port on the back of the flight controller, and enable serial rx on port 3 in ports and use ibus protocol in Beta flight settings. Then plug the receiver plug into top right on the receiver. Enjoy. Ibus is way better than PPM.
Thanks for the video. I followed along and took it out for a run and it just flips over on it self. I triple checked the props and have them installed correctly. Any tips ? Thanks again.
thanks for this great upload! I'll be receiving my X220 with fs-i6 radio in a few days time and I'm sure this vid will be invaluable. Very happy there's this great tutorial to follow step by step. Cheers!!
Hi there, everything seems to have gone according to plan with the set up but there's just one little thing which is bothering me: when I get to the failsafe mode settings on the transmitter and turn on Ch 3 it says -97% and when I turn on ch 5 it says 92% (rather than both saying -100%) how do I change them to -100%? I don't want to fly my Wizard until I get this bit sorted. What should I do? Cheers!
mavemillsmusic how strange, have you managed to set this yet? What I would do is make sure all things are set to the lowest positions as sometimes you might think throttle is at the bottom but sometimes it not fully down. Peace A x
I spent ages trying to sort it (with no luck) so eventually I decided to reset the i6 to factory settings, rebind it to the quad and reflashed betaflight to the quad too and started from the top. It arms and everything appears good except ch3 still won't set to 100 (it's still -97%) and ch5 is -100% (it was on 92% so I guess something's gone right?!) I've been told this should be ok and I won't have any problems? Hope that's true. I still haven't had chance to get out and fly it cos it's been raining here all day! I hope it'll all be ok when I do fly it. What do you reckon? Cheers dude
Great video thanks! I have the exact same setup, but I run into problems in beta flight, the controller isn't showing, all the bars flash on, then everything goes to 0. I haven't updated the firmware, but that's the only difference that I could tell. Thoughts? Getting frustrated... 🤔
great vid!! i have been trying for hrs to set this thing up watched a bunch of other vids with no luck got it armed first try with your video. Thanks a bunch!!
Hello : Have a question for you that you may help me with???? I'm new to fpv and my wife surprised me with a Eachine Wizard X220 FPV Racer Blheli_S F3 6DOF 5.8G 48CH 200MW 700TVL Camera w/ FlySky I6 RTF and of course there are no instructions that came with it and I have no idea how all this is supposed to work. Now I got to the point where I got the fpv and my googles to work and I was able to pair the receiver with the drone but I can't get the motors to start. So I did some more research on you tube and down loaded Beta Flight and connected the drone with my computer to check out the operation. Well when I tabbed down to the receiver tab and it opened there is no info. According to other posts there are different color horozonal bars that show up to correspond with the different radio controls and would move when you would move each control. Well on my system there are no color bar and no movement when moving the controls. I can't find any instruction on how to go about checking what would cause this problem? So is there any instruction you could give me on how to go about and what to check so I can make the controls work, I think if I can figure this problem out this will fix the problem of the motors not wanting to ture on?. I hope I explained and made sense on my problem. Thanks for your help I watched your channel and have learned a lot so thanks again. John
saw both the videos the unboxing and setup of the AC and RC, is it possible you also make a video on how to connect the fpv system to fatshark dominator v3 for example, what modules to use and how to set it up.
Hi Adam, I'm trying to setup the Failsafe, i'm having two problems, channel 3 works fine when i turn it on, but channel 5 is not responding, when i flip the switch nothing happens. Second problem is when i leave the menu and come back to the channels, both channels are off again.
hi thank you for awesome video but i have a question i could not see any movement when i connect to the betaflight there ise no colors on channels when i tried to move sticks do you have any suggestion. i connect receiver and transmitter but there is no response on the screen thanks.
Caramba, muito obrigado cara! Com suas explicações conseguir trazer de volta meu race, ele tinha caído na água e desconfigurou todo, pode parecer besteira mas não era. Esse é meu primeiro quad e em menos de um mês isso aconteceu. Muito obrigado de verdade, ele está perfeito novamente. Deus abençoe!
Hi Adam, a BIG THANKS. My 15 yr old Grandson gave up with it and asked if I could sort it ! Me, eighty yrs old with little puter knowledge and NO Drone experience but since watching your video, you have given me hope. Questo's - In the mode settings you said set to 270 degrees (I think) also Arm 1600 - 2100 and Angle 1700- 2100. What are these three settings actually for/do Por Favor.P.S. How do I buy you a drink.
hello there. I have had my Wizard now for a few weeks and from all the videos i have seen it looks like it will be a blast to fly. But my only problem is i am having heaps of problems with beta flight no recognising that the drone is being plugged in and i am not able to flash it either any help would be greatly appreciated
I didn't know which switch/knob to turn for channel5, so took some time to figure out. You helped a lot but to be honest this video is not for a beginner as there were a lot of assumptions in your explanation. For example, channel5 you said it should be set to on but didn't show which knob to turn to set it to -100%. All the same, I have subscribed.
Now I know why, the switches were preset, which, in my case the channel5 was set to VRA. Maybe the channel source should have been checked first then the failsafe?
Having a nightmare with my x220, also new to racing drones so I might be the issue, not the drone, but I am experiencing two problems; 1) Despite holding the throttle at say... 5%, the motors will creep quicker and quicker until it would seemingly take off and fly away? 2) When configuring the drone in BetaFlight it all responds correctly, yaw, roll etc, yet when its unplugged and im ready to fly it, the controls are completely different to what they should be doing? For example, pulling back on the stick makes it roll left? Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated.
Jacob Palmer Hey dude, no problem lets see if we can get this sorted! Firstly you have flashed betaflight to the current version? Also is your quadcopter running on ibus/sbus or ppm? Peace A x
Okay so I have fixed everything, turns out I had two of the props on incorrectly, I dont think ive seen a video mention the props? Maybe yours did but I have had enough of the damn thing for one day! Thanks for the video, it was really helpful.
Jacob Palmer glad you resolved the problem did have another idea that the yar could have been set to -90 the 270, I did I video on the walkera explaining prop set up, keep an eye out as I'm doing new setting for wizard this weekend peace A x
I am having issues setting up my drone. I have bought the components for the pro version with the Blheli_s 4in one ESC 30A and the flysky transmitter & receiver (FS-IA6B). I have paired my radio with the receiver and connected the receiver to the pads labeled sbus on the flight controller/ESC board. I configured my flight controller to use serial communication and Ibus in betaflight. I have in tern tried to configure all the different uart ports to serial Rx. however I still cant get any signal from my transmitter to show up in the receiver tap in betaflight. I have looked at countless videos and cant figure out what im doing wrong. Is it possible that the Blheli_s flightcontoller/escs don’t support I-bus?
when I unbox this drone. Do I have to configure it before flying ? or is this a plug and play drone ??? because when I unboxed and plug in the power the drone did not fly.(the motors were not working)
So I just got my first racing drone (Eachine x220) and I have paired it with my controller (fly sky i6) but it does not register the controller on beta flight. I tried to flash the firmware but kept getting the message "no response from the boot loader". Do you have any tips on how to fix this? Thank you!
I have a wizard and have followed your video exactly. When I get the part at 19:38 my controller doesn't respond. The transmitter binds. I just don't get any response from it. Any Ideas? Thanks for the video!
iI Have thew same problem! it seems to bind correctly and evertyhting elser works, but when i get to thids stage i dont get any response from controller. any solutions?
I’ve bonded my transmitter to my mob 7 and the arm/disarm is on the top left switch but I want it so that when I click down it disarms and up arms but it’s the other way around. And my drone seems to fly at a forward angle. Doesn’t the Mobula7 BNF FlySky model come with flight pre sets that I can just hook up transmitter and fly?
UAVfutures This coming from you mate has made my day, your the reason I got into the hobby. Thanks for the comment means a lot from ya! Hope your well and keep the reviews coming dude. Peace A x
ive tried this and I cannot get any receiver info into cleanflight at all, ive done everything the same and nothing .. must be silly ole me any help be appreciatedgreat video
Hay i have talked a while back but i am setting up my x220 now and am finding that when the throtle is pushed up a bit and left there it auto exselorates. My old non racing drone dose not do this. It this normal for racing drones or is somthing not set up right?
Great video thanks i have a problem and that is i can not arm the quad and my receiver does not respond on the receiver in the app have you any clue what is going on all the settings seem to be ok.The quad is the eachine 250 pro f3 i6 receiver thanks again.
Hello, i have done everything in this video, but my i6 won't save the failsafe and aux channel settings i have set, and betaflight won't react when i increase throttle, the bars just stands still(in the receivers tab) what to do? Thanks so much for an awesome video ;)
I have the same setup as you the rtf version but when I go to set up the trasmitter and put the left stick fully down it says -97 not -100 as in your video do I need to calibrate the transmitter?
Michael Durr How strange, have you managed to set this yet? What I would do is make sure all things are set to the lowest positions as sometimes you might think throttle is at the bottom but sometimes it not fully down. Peace A x
Hi i loaded bebeta flight still the same with the settings the same as yours but no luck i don't get the bars in the receiver showing up the the role and pitch work on the quad but no arming on props what it could be i am at a loss.
i have done all u say and i try my drone without propellers and when i give command to go up slowely everything is fine but if i do that fast it cant go slow again i need turn it off then it will stop...also when i press go up it constantly speeds up it wont stop untill i get command down, and if motors catch a lot of seed it wont stop speeding up again
this is awesome. i am 99% done, still cant get it to arm at all. tried all sortsa stuff. everything should be a go. why is it not working? i need an adult.
man thats so easy!! why didnt mind work?!?! arg,. soooo close your vid is the closest ive come to fixing this man... it just wont arm. ive tested each motor and they work.. man.. can i do a vid and you check it out?
Thank you for your help i will try beater flight and get back to you this has been very frustrating but thanks again if you could find a video that would be great i have tried but no success.
i spent 2 days on this same issue. finally found out that i was installing all the drivers and the second set would wipe out the first set which is all i needed. i only had to install the cp210x for 64 bit and the zadiag and set my driver on the ziadiag to the winusb after that a restart of my pc and everything could flash and connect.
The receiver part for me has no colour in any of the AUX and theres no response not like in the video the way there all moving when you move you controler sticks. and ive followed every step right i dont know whats going on id love some help been at the drone for 2 days tryna get it to work
My aux 3’s and above are not recognized in betaflight, plz help as I need to set up the second left switch to a beeper which iv just soldered into the quad.
BETAFLIGHT Configurator: 10.6.0 Firmware: BTFL 4.0.6 Target: SPRACINGF3 Hi Adam not sure if you or anyone can help but I have just updated my wizard X220 to 4.0.6 and now when I throttle up it just keeps on going and does not throttle down. Any help to fix this problem would be greatful thanks
Also i would like to add...This drone is a bit more than i expected in power...I thought since it was cheap that it would be kinda junky and good to learn with....Boy was i wrong, I havent even flown this thing and I can tell just front throttling it up it has ALOT of power...also the controls are INSANELY sensitive....this is in a league im not in yet..Get the Flysky adapter kit so you can play with flight simulator..
I've spent 2 days straight trying to get this to work. I have my receiver and my quad both on ppm, so they are working. I have all the switches to match yours, but still my quad won't arm. I have the latest flash on betaflight, and I'm stuck. Please help, I'd be happy to digress if needed. Thanks!
Greetings, So I am unable to get Ibus working. I have flysky i6/ia6bs rx and am able to use ppm but when I configure Ibus I get no response from tx on the quad or betaflight. I followed Ibus setup step by step as far ask know, using Ibus connection on back of quad, enabling in betaflight etc but no luck. Any ideas would be great. Thanks
casey cropp Hey you, thanks for the comment :) yeah sounds like it's a right mix up of things! I will be posting 2 new videos this weekend with changing from ppm to ibus correctly and new settings for the wizard so these will help you, keep eye out on new posts, if you get stuff drop me a comment and we can go through things! Peace A x
casey cropp no problem at all they will be both up on Sunday, watch first video as it will show you how to change cable over to ibus and next video setting on betaflight to get it talking to the quad. Have good weekend! Peace A x
Hey just thought give you an update! Watch this video to make sure you have the cable into the right port for ibus - goo.gl/5GNBEB then watch this video to help set-up ibus and extras in betaflight goo.gl/1vKTQY Hope this helps! Peace A x
The Art Of UAV Good video bro. I haven't had time to use fool around with betaflight this week but the first time I did use the Ibus plug on the opposite side of the board, enabled uArt 3 for serial rx and then enabled Ibus and corresponding serial port but was getting no response from my controller. However I switched back to ppm and it worked. I'm also using flysky i6x and have ppm and Ibus turned on in settings. I definitely plan on trying again this week to double check everything otherwise it may be a bad port or something idk. I'm also an utter noob and am mostly talking out of my ass and reciting from videos I've watched 😬 but definitely appreciate your videos and will try try again and see what I can find out. Peace from across the pond I presume from your accent lol
Holy crap!!! This video is fucking awesome!!! Please make more!!!

saw both the videos the unboxing and setup of the AC and RC, is it possible you also make a video on how to connect the fpv system to fatshark dominator v3 for example, what modules to use and how to set it up.
Hi Adam, I'm trying to setup the Failsafe, i'm having two problems, channel 3 works fine when i turn it on, but channel 5 is not responding, when i flip the switch nothing happens. Second problem is when i leave the menu and come back to the channels, both channels are off again.
Hey I know I'm very late but will the paper clip technique still work for the newer beta flight and will it work the same way or is it different?
As well will the configuration setting be the same if I ordered a ARF version
Up and flying in 45 mins from unboxing! Thanks!!!
al val Nice to hear dude! Have a good weekend flying. Peace A x
al val How do I set up another switch for a beeper? Plz someone answer
hi thank you for awesome video but i have a question i could not see any movement when i connect to the betaflight there ise no colors on channels when i tried to move sticks do you have any suggestion.
i connect receiver and transmitter but there is no response on the screen thanks.
Caramba, muito obrigado cara! Com suas explicações conseguir trazer de volta meu race, ele tinha caído na água e desconfigurou todo, pode parecer besteira mas não era. Esse é meu primeiro quad e em menos de um mês isso aconteceu. Muito obrigado de verdade, ele está perfeito novamente. Deus abençoe!
Hi Adam, a BIG THANKS. My 15 yr old Grandson gave up with it and asked if I could sort it ! Me, eighty yrs old with little puter knowledge and NO Drone experience but since watching your video, you have given me hope. Questo's - In the mode settings you said set to 270 degrees (I think) also Arm 1600 - 2100 and Angle 1700- 2100. What are these three settings actually for/do Por Favor.P.S. How do I buy you a drink.
hello there. I have had my Wizard now for a few weeks and from all the videos i have seen it looks like it will be a blast to fly. But my only problem is i am having heaps of problems with beta flight no recognising that the drone is being plugged in and i am not able to flash it either any help would be greatly appreciated
How did you the board type? SPRACING F3?
I didn't know which switch/knob to turn for channel5, so took some time to figure out. You helped a lot but to be honest this video is not for a beginner as there were a lot of assumptions in your explanation. For example, channel5 you said it should be set to on but didn't show which knob to turn to set it to -100%. All the same, I have subscribed.
Now I know why, the switches were preset, which, in my case the channel5 was set to VRA. Maybe the channel source should have been checked first then the failsafe?
Having a nightmare with my x220, also new to racing drones so I might be the issue, not the drone, but I am experiencing two problems;
1) Despite holding the throttle at say... 5%, the motors will creep quicker and quicker until it would seemingly take off and fly away?
2) When configuring the drone in BetaFlight it all responds correctly, yaw, roll etc, yet when its unplugged and im ready to fly it, the controls are completely different to what they should be doing? For example, pulling back on the stick makes it roll left?
Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated.
Jacob Palmer Hey dude, no problem lets see if we can get this sorted! Firstly you have flashed betaflight to the current version? Also is your quadcopter running on ibus/sbus or ppm? Peace A x
Okay so I have fixed everything, turns out I had two of the props on incorrectly, I dont think ive seen a video mention the props? Maybe yours did but I have had enough of the damn thing for one day! Thanks for the video, it was really helpful.
Jacob Palmer glad you resolved the problem did have another idea that the yar could have been set to -90 the 270, I did I video on the walkera explaining prop set up, keep an eye out as I'm doing new setting for wizard this weekend peace A x
I am having issues setting up my drone. I have bought the components for the pro version with the Blheli_s 4in one ESC 30A and the flysky transmitter & receiver (FS-IA6B). I have paired my radio with the receiver and connected the receiver to the pads labeled sbus on the flight controller/ESC board. I configured my flight controller to use serial communication and Ibus in betaflight. I have in tern tried to configure all the different uart ports to serial Rx. however I still cant get any signal from my transmitter to show up in the receiver tap in betaflight. I have looked at countless videos and cant figure out what im doing wrong. Is it possible that the Blheli_s flightcontoller/escs don’t support I-bus?
This video was very helpful. Got mine flying on the last day of 2018. Thanks!!
i would of been stuffed without this, great work.
I'm an absolute novice and this was great
when I unbox this drone. Do I have to configure it before flying ? or is this a plug and play drone ??? because when I unboxed and plug in the power the drone did not fly.(the motors were not working)
Thank you so so much. I was so worred that this was not going to work! THANK YOU SOO MUCH
Kajit Killer Hey, Glad it's helped you out! Peace A x
How do I set up another switch for a beeper? Plz someone answer
So I just got my first racing drone (Eachine x220) and I have paired it with my controller (fly sky i6) but it does not register the controller on beta flight. I tried to flash the firmware but kept getting the message "no response from the boot loader". Do you have any tips on how to fix this? Thank you!
Thankyou for this easy to follow setup video. It’s helped me out a lot
ordering mine soon will be following your tutorial to set up my x220
thanks man your video helped me alot . i tried everything and flashing the board is what i needed . keep putting up great videos!!!!!
Very informative video for beginners thanks for taking time to make this tutorial video 🤗
I have a wizard and have followed your video exactly. When I get the part at 19:38 my controller doesn't respond. The transmitter binds. I just don't get any response from it. Any Ideas? Thanks for the video!
iI Have thew same problem! it seems to bind correctly and evertyhting elser works, but when i get to thids stage i dont get any response from controller. any solutions?
I’ve bonded my transmitter to my mob 7 and the arm/disarm is on the top left switch but I want it so that when I click down it disarms and up arms but it’s the other way around. And my drone seems to fly at a forward angle. Doesn’t the Mobula7 BNF FlySky model come with flight pre sets that I can just hook up transmitter and fly?
very good video just ordered the 220. Thanks and subdd. An old Phantom 3 flyer here want to get a taste of fpv
Thank you very much, I got the RTF and it was not RTF...but thanks to you I'm good to go!👍
Wow thanks for the tutorial, even a year later very helpful
nice video mate
UAVfutures This coming from you mate has made my day, your the reason I got into the hobby. Thanks for the comment means a lot from ya! Hope your well and keep the reviews coming dude. Peace A x
UAVfutures I was worried about the paper clip but if Stew says its a good video than I trust it. Thanks man, goooooodddaaay.
i'm here because of UAVfutures build it for 99
thanks this is the only youtube video that shows ho to do it
Any suggestions if the boot loader still won't connect? Also on a Mac.
Damnit banggood!! Mines been processing for like 3 days now. But oh, the extra batteries I bought shipped just fine.
Do I have to bind the controller newly after flashing/updating the firmware? I want to update the firmware but I don't have the "binding loop" :-/
ive tried this and I cannot get any receiver info into cleanflight at all, ive done everything the same and nothing .. must be silly ole me any help be appreciatedgreat video
Hay i have talked a while back but i am setting up my x220 now and am finding that when the throtle is pushed up a bit and left there it auto exselorates. My old non racing drone dose not do this. It this normal for racing drones or is somthing not set up right?
Hi, it it required o set the mode ?
Will it be the same with 220s?
Great video thanks i have a problem and that is i can not arm the quad and my receiver does not respond on the receiver in the app have you any clue what is going on all the settings seem to be ok.The quad is the eachine 250 pro f3 i6 receiver thanks again.
hilton lee Thanks for the comment. First of all how have you set the receiver up to the flight controller via ppm or ibus/sbus? Peace A x
hilton lee also is this the falcon?
HI the reviver only seems to have ibus channel 1 this is the falcon.
hilton lee Ok I'm not clued up on the falcon but it's comes with clean flight not beta flight have you flashed the quad?
no i have not
Hello, i have done everything in this video, but my i6 won't save the failsafe and aux channel settings i have set, and betaflight won't react when i increase throttle, the bars just stands still(in the receivers tab) what to do?
Thanks so much for an awesome video ;)
I have the same problem! any solutions to this?
Thanks so much, I've been trying to figure this out forever!
I have the same setup as you the rtf version but when I go to set up the trasmitter and put the left stick fully down it says -97 not -100 as in your video do I need to calibrate the transmitter?
Michael Durr How strange, have you managed to set this yet? What I would do is make sure all things are set to the lowest positions as sometimes you might think throttle is at the bottom but sometimes it not fully down. Peace A x
Hi i loaded bebeta flight still the same with the settings the same as yours but no luck i don't get the bars in the receiver showing up the the role and pitch work on the quad but no arming on props what it could be i am at a loss.
Hi! It is possible for binding it to a Taranis?
Where do I find PPM wire? It did not come with the RX/TX. can you please help? I have a 4 in 1 esc
hello if i have fs-1a6 2a receiver does it works/compatible with a wizard 220?
i have done all u say and i try my drone without propellers and when i give command to go up slowely everything is fine but if i do that fast it cant go slow again i need turn it off then it will stop...also when i press go up it constantly speeds up it wont stop untill i get command down, and if motors catch a lot of seed it wont stop speeding up again
Best vid of the setup ever!
this is awesome. i am 99% done, still cant get it to arm at all. tried all sortsa stuff. everything should be a go. why is it not working? i need an adult.
if i try to set the failsafe, it only sets it at 80% and i cant alter the denomination.
man thats so easy!! why didnt mind work?!?! arg,. soooo close your vid is the closest ive come to fixing this man... it just wont arm. ive tested each motor and they work.. man.. can i do a vid and you check it out?
Why would you use PPM instead of ibus
Thank you for your help i will try beater flight and get back to you this has been very frustrating but thanks again if you could find a video that would be great i have tried but no success.
Beta flights connection options are a Linux Dev/ and a Com1, no usb in the windows version ?
i spent 2 days on this same issue. finally found out that i was installing all the drivers and the second set would wipe out the first set which is all i needed. i only had to install the cp210x for 64 bit and the zadiag and set my driver on the ziadiag to the winusb after that a restart of my pc and everything could flash and connect.
Why the paper clip? What did that do?
Hi I didn’t get thT small black binding tool do I need it
The receiver part for me has no colour in any of the AUX and theres no response not like in the video the way there all moving when you move you controler sticks. and ive followed every step right i dont know whats going on id love some help been at the drone for 2 days tryna get it to work
My aux 3’s and above are not recognized in betaflight, plz help as I need to set up the second left switch to a beeper which iv just soldered into the quad.
Ola vc sabe se ele bind no heli v912 amigo
Thanx for making this vid, it really helped!
theageofnow Happy It helped you out, have great weekend. Peace A x
Man ure the man, I mean literally.. thank you sooo much for such an informative video wow
i am unable to get mine to flash, i have tried all combinations of settings, yet cannot flash, is it crucial to flash?
BETAFLIGHT Configurator: 10.6.0
Firmware: BTFL 4.0.6
Target: SPRACINGF3
Hi Adam not sure if you or anyone can help but I have just updated my wizard X220 to 4.0.6 and now when I throttle up it just keeps on going and does not throttle down. Any help to fix this problem would be greatful thanks
Is the paperclip necessary
yes
You rock! configuring made simple ! thank you!
Can you do it for FS-TH9X
Also i would like to add...This drone is a bit more than i expected in power...I thought since it was cheap that it would be kinda junky and good to learn with....Boy was i wrong, I havent even flown this thing and I can tell just front throttling it up it has ALOT of power...also the controls are INSANELY sensitive....this is in a league im not in yet..Get the Flysky adapter kit so you can play with flight simulator..
awesome video!
I've spent 2 days straight trying to get this to work. I have my receiver and my quad both on ppm, so they are working. I have all the switches to match yours, but still my quad won't arm. I have the latest flash on betaflight, and I'm stuck. Please help, I'd be happy to digress if needed. Thanks!
did you solved your problem?
Greetings,
So I am unable to get Ibus working. I have flysky i6/ia6bs rx and am able to use ppm but when I configure Ibus I get no response from tx on the quad or betaflight. I followed Ibus setup step by step as far ask know, using Ibus connection on back of quad, enabling in betaflight etc but no luck. Any ideas would be great. Thanks
casey cropp Hey you, thanks for the comment :) yeah sounds like it's a right mix up of things! I will be posting 2 new videos this weekend with changing from ppm to ibus correctly and new settings for the wizard so these will help you, keep eye out on new posts, if you get stuff drop me a comment and we can go through things! Peace A x
The Art Of UAV awesome man. Look forward to it
casey cropp no problem at all they will be both up on Sunday, watch first video as it will show you how to change cable over to ibus and next video setting on betaflight to get it talking to the quad. Have good weekend! Peace A x
Hey just thought give you an update! Watch this video to make sure you have the cable into the right port for ibus - goo.gl/5GNBEB then watch this video to help set-up ibus and extras in betaflight goo.gl/1vKTQY Hope this helps! Peace A x
The Art Of UAV Good video bro. I haven't had time to use fool around with betaflight this week but the first time I did use the Ibus plug on the opposite side of the board, enabled uArt 3 for serial rx and then enabled Ibus and corresponding serial port but was getting no response from my controller. However I switched back to ppm and it worked. I'm also using flysky i6x and have ppm and Ibus turned on in settings. I definitely plan on trying again this week to double check everything otherwise it may be a bad port or something idk. I'm also an utter noob and am mostly talking out of my ass and reciting from videos I've watched 😬 but definitely appreciate your videos and will try try again and see what I can find out. Peace from across the pond I presume from your accent lol
