Hardware Build

Additional Notes

• Camera mount is meant to break-off in event of impact to reduce damage
• Recommend the use of nuts with anti-slip features because flight vibrations can cause the nuts to unscrew themselves. Nuts with no additional anti-slip ring should be installed with loctite

Serial Setup

1. Physical Wiring

3 wires need to be connected between the TX2 & FC, with example provided below. For the F7 FC you can use other UART ports, but not UART 4 because UART 4 RX is already being used by the ESC.

2. Software Configuration on TX2

In SBUS.yaml: In betaflight.launch:

3. Software Configuration on Betaflight Configurator

Install betaflight configurator in Windows and plug in flight controller directly to device.

In Ports tab:

1. For corresponding UART # RX used:
2. For corresponding UART # TX used:

4. Debugging

4.1 To test TX2 UART port has correct addresses:

Short circuit the corresponding pins of interest (connect pins via 1 wire, ex UART0 RX and UART1 TX). Open two terminals, one responsible for receiving data and another for sending data.

4.2 To confirm connection between TX2 and FC:

Arm drone from Agilicious GUI. Successful connection should result in changing throttle, yaw, pitch, roll values in Betaflight configurator receiver tab.
