Hi all

Looking for some help with connecting my CC3D board

I have two desktop machines one running Windows 8.1 and the other Windows 10, with bot of them when I connect my CC3D board running LibrePilot or Open Pilot the Board is shown but looking at the signal strength bar at the bottom of the screen I only get one bar shown and the software times out every time I try to do anything.

Anyone got any ideas as to why this is happening.

I also have a very old LapTop running windows XP and for some reason the CC3D connects and works fine on that, but that machine is so slow to use which is why I need to get it working on my Desktop machines.

Thanks in advance for any help with this.

Paul

Picture below shows lack of connection on OpenPilot but its the same on LibrePilot

Thanks for the link

I followed those instructions to the letter but unfortunately it made no difference.

Any other thoughts

No.

Maybe you miss something.

I did it a couple of times just to make sure

Attached are a couple of screen captures showing Device manager before and after CC3D connection as shown in the guide

The first 2 composite USB devices shown before CC3D connection have the following locations

Port_#0004.Hub_#0007

Port_#0001.Hub_#0007

Then the one that popped up when the CC3D was connected has the following location

Port_#0014.Hub_#0003

That was the one I un installed the drivers for and was the same after a new devices scan re installed the driver.

So I am sure I did it correctly, unless you can see were I went wrong.
