Are you on the latest beta firmware?

Im on the latest one you can download at least

Hey, 4A max PSU current may be a little on the short side. Especially with this high gains. Try 6A (or more if you come close to this. Have a look at the telemetry when you pull max force)

Hiob•12/1/24, 8:24 AM

(Even though, if the PSU is capable enough, the voltage shouldn't falter. But I don't know how the controller regulates if the set limit is reached. When the Motor Amp limit is reached they simply don't increase the force anymore. But I never tried the PSU limit.)

Hiob•12/1/24, 8:48 AM

Ok, just tried it. Settings the PSU limit too low, simply limits the max force output. But doesn't give me any errors.
Sorry, was just an idea.

.Eagle.•12/1/24, 10:00 PM

Yeah I tried 6.0 and still does it.

.Eagle.•12/1/24, 10:00 PM

I have not idea

.Eagle.•12/1/24, 10:01 PM

I double check connection and psu seen working fine.

It all started after I stop using it for 5 months

You need to use the latest version of VP config as well. The one in your screenshot is outdated and diesn't work with the newest firmware

anyone run into this?

Any way to rename the controllers?
What if I have 3 boards connected all at once, does the software all me to see all three or do you have disconnect each board from usb and do one board at a time for programming?

No i didn’t. I’ll do that with the others in there.

You can open the rear panel (the one with the fan) and it tightens with a nut from the other side

Hi guys, just got my collective calibrated with 86 motor on a gear box. Due to the length of the pole and the grip (metal) I'm not sure if I need to counter balance or the motor is strong enough. Not really sure what I should set. Currently I have the grip off, set the spring 100% and then found a setting for static force which I set to 50% so now when I move the collective handle it stays were I left it. Global gains and Global effects are at zero.

TonyZ2525•12/4/24, 6:47 PM

@H145Rotor-Sims i think you should always counterweight a collective control since speed of movement is not an issue so extra mass should not hurt anything

H145Rotor-Sims•12/4/24, 6:58 PM

Hi Tony, I have it connected to a 10:1 gear box and noticed if I set static force it can balance but I am using this strictly for the H145 HPG. I'm reading the documentation on it and it mentions to use balance spring and adaptive force to bring it to center. So I'm not sure if I'm not allowed to use static force in conjuction with that

H145Rotor-Sims•12/4/24, 7:01 PM

TonyZ2525•12/4/24, 7:01 PM

I dont mean to use the forces on the motor to balance...i mean to attach a physical weight to the end of the tube to balance the entire arm before ever putting it on the motor.

smitty•12/4/24, 7:02 PM

physical weight counterbalance would be best

TonyZ2525•12/4/24, 7:02 PM

yes

H145Rotor-Sims•12/4/24, 7:03 PM

Okay that's what I'll do. I guess the goal is put as little resistance load on the motor as possible

TonyZ2525•12/4/24, 7:03 PM

yes exactly

H145Rotor-Sims•12/4/24, 7:04 PM

Now time to find some weight

TonyZ2525•12/4/24, 7:05 PM

try ring weights or mic stand balance weights maybe on a threaded tube so they are adjustable.

just a few ideas

H145Rotor-Sims•12/4/24, 7:10 PM

I just did a quick test with some weights. I need about 12 lbs or need to extend the rear

TonyZ2525•12/4/24, 7:13 PM

probably best to extend the rear with a slightly larger tube and attack the weights to that...even a pvc tube to fit inside the collective tube and still have the wire come through the middle

As an electrician the first thing that came to mine was a 4 sq j box filled with concrete

TonyZ2525•12/4/24, 7:17 PM

that works

H145Rotor-Sims•12/4/24, 7:18 PM

Is there anything wrong with using 50% constant force?

Is there anyone who was been able to fix the issue where the stick just shuts down with the turning
