Hi guys,

I have a question regarding the LED strip we can attach to the CC3D board.

According to this:
https://librepilot.atlassian.net/wiki/display/LPDOC/Setup+WS281x+Led

LEds can be wnabled through settings and their output will be according the table we can find on the same page.

My question is:
Can we change the LED color behavior?
I would like to setup my LEDs to change color when my quadcopter is ARMED or UNARMED. When I get a GPS fix, etc.

Can the color code and led order be changed/customized?


Thank you very much

Hi,

CC3D do not support WS28xx leds

If you upgrade to a revolution class board the LEDs show not only armed/disarmed but errors and flight mode.  The colors and patterns they blink are shown at the bottom of the page your referenced.  If you're a programmer you could change to firmware to do whatever you want since this is an open source project.

Thanks.

I'm using a cc3d atom. Isn't the same functions supported? I mean, I can change settings (enable / disable) the leds on the hardware configuration, so it should work as well, right?


Cheers

You can check the link I've posted. It says it does support the leds stripes

Only for Revolution board, not CC3D or CC3D Atom.
I write this page so i can say i never write the CC3D support WS28xx leds.

Hi

Sorry for that.
I've misunderstood the board differences and versions. I have a cc3d atom and I didnt know about the revolution board.

The article is well explained. My bad.

Btw, Is there any article where to check the board features?

Cheers and congratulations for the good work.

There isn't a real comparison page that I know of.

Essentially the cc3d design is an earlier more limited one.  It's run out of memory to add features.  It's a great board for acrobatics, racing around, and even FPV.  They run the stabilized modes of flight but not (and never will) the GPS assisted modes.  They have no support for the WS281x LEDs and only support Ublox GPS units for telemetry only.

The Revolution boards are newer designs that still have memory to add features to them.  They support all the newer GPS assisted modes and autonomous flight modes.  The WS281x LEDs are supported along with Ublox, NMEA, and DJI Naza (in the next release) GPS units.

Got it

Thank you very much for your kind replies.
