In todays video we will learn how to flash our Betaflight Flight Controller with new firmware. First we learn how to put the board in boot loader mode. Then we go through all the possible scenarios of how flashing with new firmware could go wrong. There are quite a few videos out there on how to flash your flight controller, I have not seen where they show you how to put it in boot loader and what to do if you can't get it into boot loader mode so today we learn how to do that.

This video saved me. My meteor65 pro had erased its own memory. The company I got it from couldn’t figure out how to fix it, BetaFPV couldn’t figure out how to fix it. MANY emails back and forth with the manufacturer and the sales company in the US over many days couldn’t figure it out. I watched your video and 15 minutes later my quad was working. I’m in my 70’s and was very frustrated with it all. This morning BetaFPV said that my FC was defective and they had offered to replace the quad. I tried the drive fixer as a last ditch effort. Quad is bound to the TX and working. Thanks for posting this video!!!

First time i actually understood what the heck the video instructor was talking about! You do a great job of explaining and showing what your doing so it can be understood! Most go so fast and don`t explain alot of things, i guess assuming everybody knows it! Thank You! Liked and Subscribed! Quick question. I got a new bnf drone that bound to transmitter and everything works on radio right, But in Betaflight it connects and shows osd, and settings, but can get no stick movement in receiver tab, and no switch movement in modes tab. I got latest version of B.F. and can`t set modes or do any changes to drone in B.F. except the OSD. Would be very thankful for any help!

@DrainManFPV 4 года назад

Hey friend! Sounds like you aren't bound and/or you have the wrong protocol set. What type of receiver do you have, make sure configuration is set to that receiver

@HumbleHeartMinistry 4 года назад

@@DrainManFPV Thank you for answering! I am bound, and have flown it on my x-lite, but only has acro, but flies pretty good. I have checked all the settings and all are set right. I think I will just take this one to a hobby shop, and see if they can figure it out. I have gotten to frustrated, and hey its a fun hobby, and I been messing with it for too many hours to be fun, and tried all the things that others suggested with no success! Thanks for your time!

@techFPV5964 Год назад

Drain man all i want to do is reload my original 4.1.5 into my hglrcf405 and for the life of me i cannot get that firnware to load. The problem is if i load a higher fm level then 4.1.5 my rcvr won't bind and i cannot solder the rcbr to update new fw cuz the rcvr xm+ is incompatible and i cant solder cuz my hands whake to bad. What can you recommend. Jus5 so you inow my rcvr green, red lught both stay on? I can really use sone help!!

I have a babyhawk r pro 4 inch and I flew it for a few days then I went and turned it to 200mw and after that the camera started acting weird. It has an emax osd that I cant change, and the reception is crap like 10ft away it cuts out. So I did this firmware hoping it will fix it but it didnt. Do you have an idea on what the problem might be?

@djdubz 4 года назад

great vid drainman as always. so if I plug in my FC and it only gives a red solid light, and never finds my FC using the impulse driver fixer, does that mean my FC is bad? Tried the driver fixer and all you mentioned in your vid, but no cigar. When I plug in a lipo it makes all the sounds for ESC tones, but FC stays solid red. New FC needed at this point?

@DrainManFPV 4 года назад

The LEDs are really different on all FCs it's hard to say that a certain color is bad or good without knowing the model. Which FC do you have? Have you checked the board for a short circuit?

@djdubz 4 года назад

@@DrainManFPV thanks drainman!! It's the HGLRC FD445 Forward F4 Mini. I flashed it to bf 4.1.4 and all was well but I don't know what I did but I saved something and then nothing after that. One thing I noticed was the target was omnibusf4v6 and bf had that target but what was in parentheses, after omnibusf4v6 (airb) was different than the hglrc one. So target omnibusf4v6 was same except what was in parentheses after it.. Would that make a difference? So u have a video on checking for shorts? Sorry semi noob when it comes to that.. thank you very much for help btw!!

ImpuiseRC Driver Fixer fails repeatedly. An old thread in RC Groups claims disconnecting the R-XSR receiver fixes the problem. I haven't tried it yet so stay tuned. Whoever has a pipeline to the BF Devs needs to tell them this is total B.S. if that is the solution. Having to rip everything apart just to do this should not be required. Especially if the receiver is jammed in a place that makes it hard to disconnect. This hobby seems to be filled with more hurdles and stumbling blocks every time we want to make a change. And the community wonders why people get so frustrated. . Update: Apparently this was the case. I had to open my frame and disconnect the R-XSR. I disconnected the vTx while I was at it. This is a pretty inconvenient and counter-intuitive step. One shouldn't have to go to this length to do something so simple. I hope BF fixes this because pulling on such a thiny connector or de-soldering after everything is together is a hassle. Also there is this thing with vTx Tables. Another hassle.
