Revolution for octocopter H (H8)
« 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.
Theory is wonderful: every one understands it, but most of the time it does not work. Praxis, instead, always works but nobody understand why.

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.
