5. Parentah Operasi
5.1 Konfigurasi Betaflight
The HGLRC Specter F405 Flight Controller uses Betaflight firmware. To configure your flight controller, download the latest Betaflight Configurator software from the official Betaflight website. Connect the flight controller to your computer via the USB-C port.
- Pasang Supir: Ensure you have the necessary STM32 Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers installed.
- Nyambung: Buka Betaflight Configurator tur sambungkeun ka controller hiber.
- Firmware Flashing: If necessary, flash the HGLRCF405V2 firmware. Always back up your configuration before flashing.
- Setup Awal: Calibrate the accelerometer and gyroscope. Configure your receiver, ESC protocol (e.g., DShot), and OSD settings.
- Konfigurasi Port: Enable serial RX on the UART connected to your receiver. Configure other peripherals like VTX (SmartAudio/TrampHV) and GPS on their respective UARTs.
- Pangaturan PID: Adjust PID settings for optimal flight performance.
5.2 OSD (Tampilan Dina Layar)
The integrated AT7456E OSD allows you to view critical flight data directly on your FPV feed. Configure the OSD elements in Betaflight Configurator to display information such as battery voltage, current, flight time, RSSI, and GPS coordinates.
5.3 Blackbox Logging
The 16MB onboard blackbox allows you to record detailed flight data for analysis and tuning. This data can be downloaded via Betaflight Configurator and analyzed using the Blackbox Explorer software to identify performance issues or optimize PID settings.
6. Pangropéa
- Inspeksi rutin: Periodically check all solder joints and connections for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage.
- beberesih: Keep the flight controller clean from dust, dirt, and debris. Use a soft brush or compressed air. Avoid using liquids directly on the board.
- Pembaruan firmware: Keep your Betaflight firmware updated to benefit from new features, bug fixes, and performance improvements.
7. Cara ngungkulan
- Henteu aya kakuatan: Verify battery connection and polarity. Check for shorts on the board. Ensure BEC outputs are providing correct voltage.
- No Connection to Betaflight: Ensure correct drivers are installed. Try a different USB cable or port. Check if the flight controller is in DFU mode (bootloader mode) if flashing firmware.
- Instability hiber: Re-check PID tuning. Ensure motors are spinning in the correct direction and propellers are mounted correctly. Verify gyroscope calibration.
- OSD Not Displaying: Check OSD settings in Betaflight. Ensure video input/output connections are correct.
- Receiver Not Working: Verify receiver wiring to the correct UART. Check receiver protocol settings in Betaflight (e.g., SBUS, Crossfire). Ensure receiver is bound to your radio transmitter.
