Download FlightOne Configurator

FlightOne Configurator can be downloaded from this page and is available for Mac, Linux (32 and 64bit) and Linux (32 and 64 bit).

The following tutorial has been written for version 1.1.147.

Setup

Flash firmware

Note

• The latest stable release can be found here: https://flightone.com/download
• The latest beta release can be found here: https://flightone.com/beta
• The full list (including unstable releases) can be found here: https://flightone.com/firmware/

Flight Controller mode

Back to flight controller mode that allows you to configure and customize firmware settings

Update firmware

This is a fast way to update your firmware to latest stable version.

Note: Your current settings and configurations can be restored if your current firmware version are not too out of date.

DFU mode

Boots the Flight Controller into DFU mode, allows the bootloader and firmware to be updated. Used when coming from a really old version or if you want to wipe settings completely, can also be used to restore a flight controller that no longer connects properly.

Note: DFU mode may not work if s.port is connected

Note: you don't need to solder boot pins for this to work

From here, you can either select an automatic version or select a file:

If your FC is not automatically recognized, use Zadig

• Go to Options > List all devices
• Select STM32 BOOTLOADER from the dropdown
• Select the WinUSB driver
• Click on Reinstall driver

Thank you for your comprehension.

Radio Data

Shows values received from the radio (useful to identify aux)

Telemetry

Shows data from the gyroscope.

Configuration

Main

For QUOPA, you can choose between:

• Automatic 2 motor mode: Only uses 1 or 2 motors that are unstuck auto-flip back over. Can wiggle sticks to aid flip
• Manual 2 motor mode: Does not assist in flip over. You must use sticks to flip quad over yourself

Voltage

Use the offset to correct voltage if you have a different value than the one measured with a voltmeter.

Radio settings

Receiver protocol

Disabled, Spektrum RX Pin, Spektrum TX Pin, SBUS RX Pin, SBUS TX Pin, SUMD RX Pin, SUMD TX Pin, IBUS RX Pin, IBUS TX Pin, DSM2 RX Pin, DSM2 TX Pin, CPPM RX Pin, CPPM TX Pin, CRSF RX Pin, CRSF TX Pin

Receiver port

UART 1, UART 3, UART 4, UART 6

Test motors & Idle motor test

• Test motors: Runs a test on motors to get their noise score which can be used to diagnose a bad motor
• Motors iddle: percentage of motor rotation when armed (5% is the default value)
• Idle motor test: If you need to check single motor spinning or direction

Telemetry

Refer to the complete pinout diagram for more information on ports.

Telemetry

Crossfire Telemetry on TX3

recommended not to enable (I've been told by Raceflight on their Facebook support page that it is not recommended using telemetry for crossfire [because] you can't fly with others when using it, and you already have OSD so it's not needed.)

Taranis Telemetry (RX3 pin)

recommended to enable (will enable VTX and PID control from OSD via SmartAudio)

On my Taranis, I was able to gather following values: 1RSS, 2RSS, RQly, RSMR, RFMD, TPWR, TRSS, TQly, TSMR

Blheli32 telemetry

Get telemetry from the ESC

Notice that in order to use Blheli32 telemetry, you have to use DShot or Proshot ESC protocol. Blheli32 telemetry isn't available for Multishot

ESC type

blheli_s, blheli32, other

ESC protocol

MultiShot (Recommended), MultiShot 16 kHz, DShot1200, DShot600, ProShot 16kHz, ProShot 32kHz

Passthrough Cleanflight

The board will automatically install CleanFlight in order to enable Blheli passthrough

Once done programming your ESCs click reinstall Flight One button in the Flight One configurator and the board will reflash and restore previous settings

OSD and Camera Control

OSD

Choose Internal OSD if your FC is RevoltOSD

Disabled, Tx1, Tx2, Tx3, Tx4, Tx5, Tx6, Internal OSD

OSD Type

NTSC, PAL, Auto

OSD Font

mega font biggest numbers possible for max visibility

small font, same as original font smaller characters

medium font / MewoFPV's font

Possible values for the OSD:

• None
• Pilot name
• Craft name
• Time armed
• Battery picture mah
• Battery picture volt
• Voltage
• mah
• RSSI
• Crosshair
• Current
• Volatage Per Cell
• Average ESC temp
• ESC 1 eRPM
• ESC 2 eRPM
• ESC 3 eRPM
• ESC 4 eRPM
• ESC 1 current
• ESC 2 current
• ESC 3 current
• ESC 4 current

Note

To have the correct value of the RSSI on CrossFire in the OSD, make sure you have set Channel Map > Dat.Ch. 8 set to RSSI or RSSI/LQ in the Crossfire settings on the Taranis.

Camera Control

If your camera has an OSD pin, you can wire it to the RevoltOSD as follows, to be able to control the camera settings from the flight controller:

On July 2018, this feature (confirmed on F1 facebook support page) is not yet implemented in the current version of flightone-configurator.

PID Tuning

PID

Ready for use PID tunes

Supported default configurations

Note

Notice that some pre-configurations may automatically change filtering tunes (e.g. Skytzo tune will automatically select Predictive filters)

Load custom defaults

This will enable to enter the URL of a configuration that you found on the following resource: https://flightone.com/tuneconfigs/

PID tuning

Signal smoothing

RC Smoothing will smooth control input from stick movement

RC Smoothing

Percentage of smoothing for the stick movements

Good for 5 inches quad

New RC Smoothing

Number of degrees/second

Relevant for larger quads

Limit settings

CG Adjustment

Between 80% and 120%. Good value around 90%

kD and kI limits

Percentage of limitation on I and D of your overall PID value (e.g. kD set to 0.4 means that you are limiting D to 40% of your overall PID values)

Default to 0.4

Roll, Pitch and Yaw deadband

Percentage of stick movement that is ignored.

1% of the stick is ignored, which is the default value for Taranis radio, because gimbals are less accurate in the center

TPA

Filters

Ready for use filters

Filtering

Gyro smoothing

Off, Medium, High, Very high

In most pre-configurations, you can disable gyro smoothing

Filter type (stage 1 and stage 2)

2 stage filtering. Stage 1 filter is run first, and stage 2 filter is run second.

OG Filter, Predictive Filter, BiQuad Filter, Frequency Filter, RC FIR2 Filter, Fake Kalman Filter, Brick Wall, Disabled

D Filtering

Rates

Ready for use rates

Supported default configurations

Rates

DPS

Throttle curve

Profile

• You can create up to 3 profiles to switch between different PID, rates and filter settings.
• These profiles can be easily accessed via switches on the Taranis, using PROFILE2 and PROFILE3 from the Manual setup section of the SETUP tab.
• You can rename profiles to give them explicit names
• You can also import and export profiles

ESC

Shows ESC values from the ESC telemetry

Logging

Logging

1. Assign a switch on the Taranis to the LOGGING param on the Manual setup section of the SETUP tab.
2. Enable the LOGGING switch when the quad is powered on to start logging
3. Disable the LOGGING switch to stop logging

Analyze logs

• Download the Betaflight Blackbox Explorer
• Go to logging and click on the Download button

• It will automatically mount a new drive on your computer, that you can use to read logs from the Betaflight Blackbox Explorer.
