Title: Motor output channel question
Post by: Ty-fighter on February 06, 2016, 07:46:41 pm

Hi all,
On the 'Vehicle' page/section in LibrePilot GCS, i noticed that you can select a channel for each motor.
I amy flying a racing quad and to keep build tidy, low profile and light weight, i have soldered ESC (signal & Grnd) directly the flight controller. Previously have been using another GCS which has different motor configuration albeit they all spin in the right direction.

Question;
Can i change the motor output thus saving me getting the soldering station warmed up?
Basically need to motor 1 to come from channel 4, 2 is same, 3 to come from channel 1 and motor 4 to come from flight controller output channel 1.

As alway, many thanks in advance and keep up the great work guys/gals.

Perfect, thats what i was hoping, thanks for the rapid reply.

Do you think it will be fine like that?

Again, what a nice GCS from LibrePilot.   :D
