Problems reversing a gyro KKmulticopter

Oh yes, it happend again. I crashed my drohne.

 

... but life doesnt end here. So I reassembled  Fafnir the dragon, but somehow one of the gyros also gave up.
As I knew the day would come, I ordered a spare controller board earlier and installed a XCopter software onto it.

 

During the prefligth checks I found out that the gyros needed to be reversed. Which caused some confusion and problems.

 

According to the KKmulticopter website you need to put the Roll Pot to zero , turn on the controller and you see that ther light will flash 10 times.

In my case, that didnt work. The light was flashing rapidly and didnt stop at all.

 

How to solve the gyro problem :

 

- Make sure the propeller are disassembled even if it is work to do.

- Put all potis to zero

- Turn on radio & receiver

- LED should flash 10 times

- Reverse Gyro by pushing the stick

- LED flashed rapidly

 

If it doesnt work :

 

For some reason how the kkmulticopter board sometimes decides to use full scale on the pots as zero.

You might have to figur out which the programming position.

 

NEVER EVER DO THAT WITH PROPELLERS !!!!!!
