F3FC wont arm… need help please… :)

[SBN]

Hi

I got a V3, to Mini´s and a Baby.

I got a problem with the Baby Tricopter. I just finished building it an every thing works except i won´t arm!

The Baby has a RCExplorer F3FC.

I have looked online and seen a lot of videos on Youtube trying to get this thing to work.

Ok, so this is what happens when i plug in the battery. The esc´s are beeping as normal. I can run the motors i Betaflight GUI.

Tail tune is also working.

The switch for arming is working and is moving in Betaflight. But the orange “light” in Betaflight does not light. On the FC the blue light starts blinking when i activate the arm switch. If i raise the throttle stick the blue light turn of. If i try to switch between Airmode and Acro the red and green light switch on and of according to what mode it is in. And the orange flags lights on in Betaflight according to what mode it is in.

I need a little help…

What am i doing wrong?

In the Betaflight Setup Tab what Arm codes are being shown?

Can you manually spin-up the motor via betaflight?

Did you perform the ESC motor calibration?

Note: You can use Multi-Shot for the ESC’s.

Hi, it is not showing any codes. That is what i find strange…

Yes i can spin up the motors in Betaflight.

Yes i did perform a motor calibration.

I did try Multishot, same problem.

I have built a lot of copters, both tri and quads and newer had this problem before.

When i hit the arm switch the blue led on the FC start flashing, what does that mean?

Have you performed your on desk tail tune? Recent versions of triflight won’t allow arming if this hasn’t been done.

[SBN]

Yes, i have performed a desk tail tune. It completed the desk tail tune with out problems.

It still wont arm…

I am still wondering about the flashing blue light when i try to arm?

Ok, a small update…

I did a reflash of the Triflight 0.7 Beta 3, did a bench tail tune and now i works for som odd reason!

Thank you to every one that tried to help me 🙂
