Yes but for me it's like cyptonite having raged wiring,

Just waiting for my cc3d case now, to get that closed in and mounted better

Well just ordered the naze32 to give that a try, will be going with clean flight on it as well,

Be interesting to see what settings you have Kev. I have Baseflight, which is very similar to Cleanflight:)

Just waiting for some 90º header pins to set my Flip32 up. Already got Cleanflight FW on it.

The PIDs on baseflight and cleanflight are the same as long as your pid controller is set to 0 in the pid tuning tab. Heres the link to cleanflight doc on migration: https://github.com/cleanflight/cleanfli ... eflight.md

Nice job on the wiring Kev. Sod's law about the case arriving when your going to change the controller...

KevG · Post by **KevG** » Mon Feb 16, 2015 12:55 pm

Yes mate, gonna put the controller in the case, and put it aside until I find out if I like this naze32, but looking at my mates bird its looking good at the moment,

Just got to solder it all up when it gets here, oh the joy,

Lee · Post by **Lee** » Mon Feb 16, 2015 4:22 pm

Same case as i have Kev.

Banggood butt,

Going with this naze32 and I thought I would be doing cleanflight on it but the guys down here have baseflight so gong with that first to see what it's like then will prob cut over later when I have a bit more experiance, been looking through loads of shit on the Internet today trying to make my mind up,

Good idea, if nobody around you has Cleanflight it will be better to use what they can help you with.
There is a learning curve with both, switching was quite easy once I understood baseflight.

I actually thought the wiring job was pretty good! You should see the mess of wires on my 600, lmao.

Well a little fiddling tonight,

Fitted the Cc3d case as I wanted the standoffs that was on the cc3d

The new base plate for the naze32 unit which is what I wanted to rob the standoffs for,

And a little side project, the transport case, I like a bit of protection for things while I carry them and found a case for a fiver, 8 bucks for our US friends, a few cable tidies and some elastics later and here is what we have,

Now I'm all ready for the new controller, I think, see what board pins come with the naze32 tomorrow

Nice one Kev:)

KevG · Post by **KevG** » Mon Feb 16, 2015 9:58 pm

Hey Graham do you want a couple of packs of Lynx trex 150 motor connectors, bought them for my quad lighting but did not use, they are yours if you want them,

Graham Lawrie · Post by **Graham Lawrie** » Mon Feb 16, 2015 10:21 pm

That would be cool Kev:)
