3.3 Diagrama de cableado (xeral)

Connect the flight controller to your drone's components according to the following general guidelines. Refer to the specific pinout diagram provided by GEPRC for precise connections.

• Motores: Solder motor wires to the designated motor pads (M1-M4) on the ESC section of the board.
• Entrada de enerxía: Connect the main battery lead (2-6S LiPo) to the VBAT and GND pads. It is recommended to solder the included low ESR capacitor across the main battery pads for cleaner power.
• Receptor: Connect your receiver (e.g., SBUS, Crossfire, ELRS) to one of the available UARTs (e.g., RX1/TX1).
• VTX/Camera: Connect your video transmitter (VTX) and FPV camera to the appropriate video in/out and power pads. For DJI Air Unit, use the dedicated 6-pin connector.
• GPS/Outros periféricos: Utilize remaining UARTs for GPS, external compass, or other accessories.

3.4 Actualización do firmware

The flight controller comes pre-flashed with Betaflight firmware. For updates or configuration, connect the board to your computer via the USB-C port and use the Betaflight Configurator software. Ensure you select the correct target for the F722 MCU (e.g., GEPRCF722_AIO).

4. Instrucións de funcionamento

4.1 Configuración de Betaflight

After physical installation, configure the flight controller using Betaflight Configurator:

• Pestana Portos: Enable Serial RX on the UART connected to your receiver. Configure other UARTs for VTX (SmartAudio/TrampHV), GPS, etc.
• Ficha Configuración: Select your receiver protocol (e.g., SBUS, CRSF), enable DSHOT for ESC protocol, and set up other features like OSD, Air Mode, etc.
• Pestana Motores: Test motor direction and ensure they spin correctly. If not, reverse motor direction in BLHeliSuite32 or Betaflight.
• Axuste PID: Adjust PID values as needed for optimal flight performance.
• OSD: Customize the On-Screen Display to show desired flight information (voltage, current, flight time, etc.).

4.2 Armado e desarmado

Ensure your radio transmitter is properly bound and calibrated. Set up an arming switch in Betaflight Modes tab. Always arm your drone in a safe, open area, clear of people and obstacles.

5. Mantemento

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliability of your flight controller:

• Inspección visual: Periodically inspect the board for any signs of damage, loose solder joints, or burnt components.
• Limpeza: Gently clean the board with isopropyl alcohol and a soft brush to remove dust, dirt, or flux residue. Ensure the board is completely dry before powering on.
• Actualizacións de firmware: Keep the flight controller firmware updated to the latest stable version of Betaflight for performance improvements and bug fixes.
• Xestión de vibracións: Ensure the flight controller is properly soft-mounted to minimize vibrations, which can affect flight performance and component lifespan.

6 Solución de problemas

Se tes problemas, consulta os seguintes pasos comúns para a resolución de problemas:

• Sen alimentación/LED apagados:
  • Comprobe a conexión e a polaridade da batería.
  • Inspeccione se hai curtocircuítos na placa ou nos compoñentes conectados.
• Motores que non xiran:
  • Verificar as conexións do motor ás almofadas do ESC.
  • Check ESC calibration and firmware.
  • Ensure the flight controller is armed and throttle is above minimum.
  • Check motor direction in Betaflight Configurator.
• No Receiver Input:
  • Confirm receiver is properly bound to the transmitter.
  • Verify receiver wiring to the correct UART RX pad.
  • Check UART configuration in Betaflight Ports tab.
  • Ensure correct receiver protocol is selected in Betaflight Configuration tab.
• Inestabilidade do voo:
  • Check for excessive vibrations; ensure soft-mounting is effective.
  • Review Configuración de axuste PID.
  • Ensure propellers are undamaged and balanced.
