DEVO 10 MYSTERIOUS ARMING PROBLEM (NEWBIE)

[jh]

I’m having a mysterious problem with my Devo 10 transmitter:

I noticed that I had lost the settings for my hex-copter because the controls were suddenly reversed. The Devo 10 had lost the reverse settings and the throttle curve I had put in.

So I reset those and now the copter will not arm. I’m using a KK2 control board so I can see on its screen that the TX, RX, and the KK2 are communicating well – all my stick movements show up on the KK2 screen. But when I try to arm it, nothing happens. It just remains in safe mode.

I’m hoping someone here may be able to suggest something else I can check or do. At this point I cannot even diagnose the problem.

Thanks for any clues.

I assume you are using this on a quad copter since you mention the KK2 board. I do not know what the KK2 expects to receive to arm the motors but I assume it is some combination of stick movements like other quad boards. I have two Devo 10's that I use for everything and have not had the problem you are mentioning but I have some suggestions and thoughts.

Since several settings got screwed up maybe the Travel Adjust setting under Function Menu is too small or too large. It possible the Sub Trims under the Function Menu were messed up when the glitch happened?

Try that and see what happens. If the KK2 shows you the stick movements you are making then it seems like it is more of a setting for arming that is causing the issue. Do not assume anything from the first setup is working correctly which is why I say to reset and start over. Been there and done that. Spent a lot of time figuring out one of my "what if" sessions from a previous model I programed was causing other things to go haywire on the new model I assigned to to reuse the model number.

I would suggest that you use the Model Menus>Model Reset to putting everything back to the factory defaults and start over on the programming.

Forum GOD: Great explanation on what could be wrong in settings. Now where can one find what the settings SB?
