Hi, Bill:
So if I connect ESC to Radio 1 and connect the Rudder and Elevtor servos to Servos 1 and 2 on the UAV board, I should be ok to modify the code and to drive the servos, is that right?
Thanks
Hi, Bill:
If I want to modify the firmware in UAV board WITHOUT connecting RC receiver to the board, can I use ESC to power UAV board directly? I mean to connect +5V and GND of ESC to the VCC and GND on the board. I have a 3s Lipo battery (11.1V) w…
Hi, Sid & Bill:
Thanks a lot for the correction. Really appreciate for the additional info. I'll try these connections.
Bill - you mentioned the instructions for the connection are in fw. Could you point out which file(s) I need to look at?

Bill & All:
I just brought UAV board, ICD2, GPS and some other parts from Sparkfun. I want to try this UAV board with my EZStar RC plane. My 1st question is how to the UAV board to the Receiver, the servos and the power. I read the manual (GPSSUAVM…
Bill,
How does the board (UAV v2 Dev) get the power during flight and in debugging with PC?
Thanks
David
Technically, I think its 6 volts for many servos (3v? for some new models), but 5v is /usually/ close enough to work. I mention this because the possibility exists for a servo to work on 6 and fail on 5. however unlikely.
If anyone is having problems driving a servo/ESC then you try the Old Arduino Servo library and the frequencytimer2 library

They take a little…
Hi all and Abhishek Jain, I have a Mystery 30A ESC, and connect to the arduino, it did not work at all, no spin, no verberation, nothing ! If I directly connect a servo to the arduino, it works perfectly.
What's your code for Adruino ? and How shou…
