Title: Revolution for octocopter H (H8)
Post by: sigrana on June 09, 2016, 05:40:14 am

Hello all. I am going to build an H shaped octocopter for video filming and I am wondering if anyone knows how to setup a Revo for it or if the Revo can be used on such an octocopter configuration. Any comment would be appreciated. Thank you all in advance.

Normally there are only 6 outputs for motors so to make an octo, you will need to use the pwm inputs as outputs.  Configuration -> Hardware receiver port should be set to Outputs, and use Main or Flexi for a supported one wire RC protocol, like PPM, SBus, DSM...

Select an Octo type from the list in the Vehicle page.
