Hi ryansto,
Could you post some pictures of your wiring ?
The standard connection shown in the Manual should get your receiver powered from either the USB connection to the Quadrino Nano or by powering from the ESC.
http://s7d5.scene7.com/is/image/horizonhobby/HRC28414_a0?wid=1400&hei=778This is the receiver i have any suggestions? it also has a little jumper loop not pictured
All the TOP pins will be the different channels.
Than the middle will be Positive and bottom Negative. All channels are shown in your transmitter manual but here they are:
CH1 - ROLL
CH2 - PITCH
CH3 - THROTTLE
CH4 - YAW
CH5 - AUX1
CH6 - AUX2
The loop is usually to send back the voltage of the Receiver to the Radio for telemetry.
still have no light on the reciever
A picture of you wiring would greatly help understanding the issue.
How do you power your Quadrino Nano ? Is the Quadrino Nano powered ?
It all has power, we have had no luck with this thing since we bought it, i went to the Quadrino thinking it would be easier so far same result… the Quadrino is powered and all the lights blink its just not putting anything out to the receiver. I would love to include a picture but the only way to do that is from a URL which i don’t have access to to post it. Sorry if i am ranting its just frustrating after two years ad it has never flown!
The Quadrino Nano is only one year old, we guess you had problems with another controller in the past.
Normaly, if you connected the Power and GND correctly to Any of the receiver 3pins, and the Quadrino Nano is powered you should have your receiver powered.
Having the Receiver Harness on the wrong Quadrino Nano front port will give you such a behavior. Make sure it is inserted all the way in the lower 10pins connector.
You can attach a picure directly by clicking on the “Attachments” bellow here.
Ok, guess i did’t see the attachment button… i feel dumb on that. But your right the Wii board was not a friendly design now my kids in class are after me to get this going so i hope you understand you have been a great help thus far if you need a better picture of anything let me know, again i appreciate all your doing. There is also another blue light on the upper left that blinks but it is not pictured on.
Looking at the picture, that’s exactly what we were expecting.
You have the Receiver Harness connected in the Motor connector and so on. Move it to the bottom connector and it should work
I will try that tomorrow as the day is almost over here for school… i can’t believe that was that easy… if i have more question i will get back to you thank you so much for your time in this really appreciate this .
No problem here, let us know how it went tomorrow.
We suggest to take a look at the User manual first as there are a lot of little things that need to be set right when doing UAV’s.
