![]() ![]() Plug in the USB programming tool into your computer and connect the ESC to the programming tool using ONLY the signal and ground wire.Select your com port where your USB programming tool is connected and baud rate 9600.Once in the BlHeliSuite, select the programming tool you are using from the top drop down menu “ATMEL/SILABS”.Download and install the software BlHeliSuite.Get the correct CP210x USB drivers for your system from Silicon Labs and install it.ESC’s can be configured to sound a beacon if they sit idle for 10min (or whatever you set it to). Programmable with BLHeliSuite after it’s been flashed.It makes the quad more responsive and have a more locked in feeling also. In my experience it greatly reduces oscillations while decelerating and dropping altitude. This makes the quad much more responsive. Damping light is like electronic brakes on the motor. Without Damping Light, the motors will slow down by themselves with the drag of the props. ![]() This is when the ESCs send a signal to slow down the motor while speeding up the motor on the other side. The biggest advantage of BlHeli over SimonK is Dampened Light and Active free wheel. The best part about BlHeli is that it’s highly customizable AFTER it’s been flashed. Basically a set of instructions that tells the ESC how to process the info coming from the flight controller. Then select “Load Firmware Local”īlHeli and SimonK are ESC (electronic speed controller) firmware. Sometimes the firmware fails to load online you can download the firmware here.Select “Load Firmware Online” and hit “Flash Firmware”.In Cleanflight in the “Firmware Flasher”, select the most current stable firmware for your flight controller in the drop down menu.Connect the flight controller to the computer.Download and install the correct CP210X USB to UART Bridge VCP driver for your computer system.Supports more than 8 channels (such as the FrSky X8R 16ch).(at this time Baseflight has oneshot but hasn’t been tested) Supports much more flight controllers including the CC3D.Features Cleanflight has that Baseflight doesn’t have: Basically both software do the same thing except Cleanflight has features Baseflight doesn’t have. Cleanflight is known as the clean-code version of Baseflight which is suppose to be more reliable and easier for future development. Both of these software is what’s used to program and configure flight controllers like the Naze32. CleanflightĬleanflight is an alternate configurator software/firmware to Baseflight (default firmware on Naze32). I did some research and I’ll try to explain in simple terms for even a dummy like me can understand. I’ve been using it for a few months and it’s awesome! But it’s hard to ignore now, it’s everywhere. Quadcopter technology is advancing so fast I thought it was just a fad that will soon fade away. What the heck is this stuff? I first heard about it a while back and chose to ignore it. ![]()
