just been out with the quad, went to arm, nothing. tried another lipo, nothing, just the 4 flash warning. got back and plugged into my PC, elevator needed trimming! for f$%^sake! so a naza needs a laptop just to find out that the TX is right at the field. out of the box flying my arse. :wallbash:
Once the naza is set up it should not need doing again
that's what i thaught, but it needed about 3 clicks of trim on the elevator to get it into the green. that was after i'd done the recalibration. maybe the high temp making the TX or the RX drift?
Which version Naza and are you using ppm input or PWM ?
How is your naza setup and what version of the firmware are you using?
All of your sub trims on your TX should be at zero.
If you're using a full version Naza V1/2 haven't upgraded to version 3.12 you should do this now.
did the upgrade not long ago, naza v1 3.12.
set up with standard RX (traditional). sub trims are 0. haven't changed anything exept the batteries (left the TX on)
When doing the calibration Make sure you have no trim/subtrim . You sometimes need to exit/disconnect and re-boot Assistant before it saves the Tx offset.
Occasionally it takes a couple of attempts to be stored correctly on earlier softewares so likely still the same.
Ice
just fired it up again. 4 flash warning, offset in assistant. recalibrate, elevator now perfectly centred. :fool:
Make sure u calibrate your tx before anything else. Naza won't like uncalibrated Trany!
You haven't said which version of the firmware you're on? There is a version with a bug that doesn't store the calibration so ever time you power cycle the Naza its lost.
i'm on 3.12, which i re-loaded after the bugs had allegedly been sorted. just had it on again, 4 flash warning. plugged into assist, all was well there, then it was fine. going to the turf field anyway, got a plank and my buggy.

As I said earlier, what TX are you using? There are a number out there that have historically had issues with the pots, which don't always centre correctly, and that would show up in the way you describe. It's not always a software issue just cause you see it in the software.
dx6i, not a problem with the earlier software. just powered up, 4flash, plugged into pc, all shows well. so i did the upgrade to the latest 3.12 as prompted. i'll have to wait and see.
This may sound daft, but its not the 4 flsh yellow LED your seeing, which isn't a warning, its the warm up timer that lasts a few minutes is it ?
At least you lt can see the colours, I'm colour blind so fooked when it comes to seeing the yellow and green.
Colour blindly yours, Mark

as it happens, it seems to be so. i didn't realize that it did that, as on the previous firmware it didn't, it just finished at 4 greens, ready to go. :wallbash: i'm finding naza is not as ready to go as the hype would suggest, especially for some one not the least bit techno savvy ( ie, me!).
Oh well, at least you know now :)

Go and try the alternatives then come back and tell us if Naza is 'Ready to Go' or not ;D

To be fair DJI presume however wrong that the buyer actually reads the instruction manual first :)
It's compatible with all radios but has no idea which brand you have so needs calibrating, the same with the ESC's but will then control in a very capable manner any variation of platform it gets installed in.
I can not think of an easier system to setup available right now.
as i have a naza M1 i had already red the hand book. when i did the upgrade, there wasn't a note, that i saw, to use the M2 hand book. that would have saved me a lot of trouble and head scratching. as i've said, i'm not techno savvy, this is all a steep learning curve for me. (yes that statement does make me feel an old fart!)
