Great presentation

[@NIK7A]

Thank you!

In my full parameter list there is NO "SERVOn function". And is disabled (Grey) at servo output tab. How can adjust (trim) my motors speed? This options is just from a version firmware?

Hello, eNTertainment, I hope you're doing well in the pandemic! I am working on a private project for a long time making a VTOL plane and I'm struggling with a problem that I couldn't figure out. I'm using CUAV v5 autopilot for the flight controller, FrSky Taranis for the transmitter, X8R FrSky for the receiver. PROBLEM: Servos that I am using on CUAV V5 are not moving/working although I have switched to mode4 (9-16ch telemetry on). When I'm using simple mode1 ch1-ch8 telemetry on, servos are working/moving but when I plug the servos to CUAV V5 autopilot and switch to the mode4 I couldn't get the servos working/moving. I have armed/disarmed the plane, it's working and flashing green light to the outside but when I try to control servos through joystick TARANIS, in mission planner --> Radio calibration it's calibrated correctly, in mission planner --> failsafe mode sigout and sigin is working correctly. I have attached two jumpers to the receiver to change the mode to D16 CH9-CH16 Telemetry on and I link the V5 and Receiver using sbus cable from sbus port(Receiver) and RCIN input(CUAV V5). Could you please tell me what I'm doing incorrectly?

[@juancarlosarevalo5526]

Excellent video. How do you connect + and - of the servos since you only have the signal in the pixhawk I'm putting in plane thanks

[@NIK7A]

Thank you! The Pixhawk cannot provide power to the servos so an external BEC or ESC that can provide 5V should be used. In my case I have used the ESC

[@ademczuk]

Thank you so much. My new ESC arrived and it appears that the issue was RC deazone, when I reversed the throttle in servo settings I got action from it. Now I'll just need to adjust my settings. Is there any chance you could paste your full parameter list to pastebin or somewhere?

[@NIK7A]

Maybe in a few days, I'm away from the rc

[@ademczuk]

@@NIK7A I saw that you have the reverse bucket mapped just to a switch. Were you ever able to get ardurover to use thust reversing so that reverse/braking works in loiter/auto mode? Could this be done with the regular settings, or would it require a LUA script or recompiling of the source to move the servo when the thrust moves? Did you modify vectored thrust? ardupilot.org/rover/docs/rover-vectored-thrust.html

[@NIK7A]

@@ademczuk I am not sure about this. I have disabled the vectored thrust, MOT_VEC_THR_BASE=0

[@juancarlosarevalo5526]

you are right my esc has bec i connect it on channel 3 and this will give current to the servos right?

[@NIK7A]

If you use a Power Module to power the Pixhawk then use + and - from ESC BEC to power direct the servos.

[@juancarlosarevalo5526]

@@NIK7A ok when connecting the esc to channel 3 it will give current to the servos and I am feeding the pix with power module thank you very much for your help

[@yamarajaspring9518]

Hi, I have four servos, each one needs 5V, 1A. Can the Pixhawk supply that, please?

Φίλε καλησπέρα να σε ρωτήσω τι εμβέλεια σου έβγαζε με το x8r receiver?

[@NIK7A]

Καλησπέρα! Η εμβέλειας του με βάση τα χαρακτηριστικά του είναι μεγαλύτερη από 1,5 χιλιόμετρα. Εγώ μπορώ να σου πω σίγουρα ότι πιάνει άνετα τα 500 μέτρα σε ανοιχτό πεδίο...Δεν το έχω δοκιμάσει πιο μακριά...

[@ATHKARTING]

@@NIK7A φίλε όντος βγάζει 500; Άνετα; Ξέρεις μήπως Πιο firmware του έχεις βάλει; Όλοι στης ομαδικές που ρωτάω μου λένε ότι ούτε 200 μέτρα δεν θα πιάσει στο νερό

[@NIK7A]

@@ATHKARTING Ναι, σε μένα τα είχε πίασει. Για το firmware λογικά θα σου απαντήσω μετά το Σαββατοκύριακο γιατί δεν το έχω εδώ που είμαι.

in pixhawk (main out) pin signal pin not giving any data can u tell me what is the reason??

[@NIK7A]

Hi, You may need safety switch on. If you do not have a safety switch, have you disabled it in the parameters?

How do you connect the pixhawk flight controller to the gas engine RC plane??

[@NIK7A]

For the Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) you can check this link ardupilot.org/plane/docs/common-ice.html

[@franciscourena5636]

@@NIK7A Thanks for your assistance I am missing the steps by steps connection Between the combustion engine servo and the pixhawk

[@NIK7A]

@@franciscourena5636 The throttle servo can be connected to main PWM out "3". Set on Mission planner SERVO3_FUNCTION -->"70" (check video at 2:16) On the Servo Ouput page set the Min and Max PWM values on this servo output to be within the mechanical limits of your throttle assembly (using SERVOx_MIN and SERVOx_MAX). Also verify that the servo moves in the correct direction (check video at 3:19) Note that the throttle servo will not move unless the vehicle is armed. After must be set: THR_MIN THR_SLEWRATE THR_MAX

@@NIK7A thanks

[@franciscourena5636]

@@NIK7A I want to thank you again for your assistance 5 volts from ESC to the servo is the procedure. I am trying to understand the concept before mistakenly asked you a question ** The pixhawk flight controller ( computer) directs when feed current to the Brushless Motor as well as other functions such as servos moving the UAV to the right or left, ascending altitude; etc All those functions are done with the servos. The battery feeds the servos and the pixhawk *1. if I want to make an autonomous larger scale boat (60" x 36" x 24" ), the servos will need to be stronger and more than 5 volt input will be needed for the rudder??? 2. Is that the reason why you use a pump in order to turn the big rudder? 3. If so, where does the pump connects to? To the servos? As far as the Gas Engine UAV. 4. where in the pixhawk, you connect the power module of the gas engine? I am real interested in learning. Francisco Francisco
