Some people might accidentally flash the wrong firmware (e.g.
Now, try to connect your board in the CleanFlight GUI, taadaa! It works! :D LEDs on your Naze32 or CC3D will start blinking, when it finishes flashing firmware, the LED will stay on solid again. Now double check you have selected the correct firmware, and press “Flash Firmware”. You may want to check “Full Chip Erase” for new boards. I would personally choose the latest Stable version.Īnd now press “Load Firmware (Online)”, the release information will appear. In the list of available firmware are for different boards. * Please note that firmware is reverse-able, you can always go back to BaseFlight if you want.įirmware flashing is really simple and straight forward. Open the Configurator GUI, choose the COM port for your board. Note that you will need an USB-UART adapter for the CC3D before flashing.

That’s because your Naze32 is still on BaseFlight, so we need to flash CleanFlight firmware on the Naze32 and CC3D first. Even when you have already had CleanFlight flashed, you might still want to do this again in the future for the latest firmware update (the extra features and bug fixes). When you open the CleanFlight GUI, you will notice it won’t connect no matter how hard you press the “connect” button.
If not, try to restart your computer first. Once the driver is installed successfully, you should see this in your device manager, with a COM port number assigned. There’s a link for the driver right in the Cleanflight GUI, but in case you can’t find it, here is the driver download address. Otherwise your board is not recognised and it won’t be assigned a COM port.

But if you are new, or you are using a new computer that never has connected a Naze32 before, you will have to install the Driver first. If you have already used Naze32 before, you probably have installed the driver. If your existing CleanFlight GUI version is out of date, you can just remove it and re-download it. Same way as getting the BaseFlight Configurator, you just search for “CleanFlight” in Extensions in Google Chrome. For more tips on using the Naze32, or explanation of certain parameters, check out the Naze32 Guide. But I would recommend getting at least an F4 flight controller as the F3s are kind of outdated.There are many reasons why you should change over from Baseflight. I don’t know how much difference there is between an F4 and F7 as I currently only own a quad with an F4. If you want both then consider F4s and F7s. If so use Beat/Cleanflight if you want GPS use INav. I would say that flight controllers like F1s, F2s, and F3s can still be used you just have to make a choice: Do you want a racing oriented quadcopter or not. If GPS is an important feature to you I suggest you take a look at INav which is a Cleanflight clone with GPS in mind.

You can mod the firmware to include the GPS but keep in mind that if you ever want to update the firmware to the latest version you will always have go through this process of compiling your custom version. hex file by clicking the “Load Firmware” button. Hi, you should be able to flash your flight controller through the Betaflight/Cleanflight software on your PC.
