hexairbot / hexnanomwc_quad Goto Github PK

It would be nice to have the history of multiwii in this repo instead of the current code drop format. I have a hacky version of that located here: https://github.com/koenkooi/multiwii-firmware/tree/flexbot-quad-rebase

It should be easier for you guys to recreate, since you know which revision you started from :)

Sorry, I can't that I can't find any other channel, but I have an issue with my flexbot after a crash: After switchin on, the red LED starts blinking and the flexbot quadcopter doesn't react after connecting via Bluetooth.

What are the meanings of the various LEDs modes ? (red/blue, blinking, non blinking, etc.)

thanks a lot ...

I received my flexbot, thanks. There are no links to documentation or source on the kickstarter campaign or hexairbot.com or flexbot.cc so I've been searching for it and this github repo is the only place I see anything at all. I see no wiki, no readme, no basic information of any kind other than these 4 commits on github and code that is months old.

Is this code here the active source? It does not look like any developer activity at all, more like somebody just copied the source to here from somewhere else? Where can I get the current code and documentation? Where can I get the STL files? I found the hex frame on thingiverse but no others. It seems like your "open source" is disorganized, incomplete, and in different places. I suggest putting all the source in one place with all the info and docs and linking to it on your websites so we can find it.

I also need to know where I can get a version of the android app that works with a motorola razr maxx. The QR code in the manual goes to a Flexbot app, but the Play Store says "Your device isn't compatible with this version." What version do I need to get? I never saw any mention that not all android devices are compatible. I have 2 phones and a tablet and none are compatible.

So far I'm disappointed with your execution of this project. I can't fly my quad as supplied, and I haven't found any information or source I can easily use to fly it.

edit: ok, I see that only android 4.3 or later is supported. I did not see that 6 months ago. Oh well. Looks like it goes in the parts bin. It's a shame that the android app can't run on almost 90% of the devices currently in use, since well over 80% run version 4.2 or earlier.
