Possible bug when calibrating ESCs on ModalAI's custom 1.14 flight core v2 firmware
-
Good afternoon,
Today I was attempting to calibrate my ESCs when I ran into a strange issue. I press the "Calibrate" button to calibrate the PWM escs, but nothing happens. I tried this on multiple versions of QGC.
I am using the custom 1.14 firmware available here: http://voxl-packages.modalai.com/dists/fc-v2/sdk-1.1/
As a note, this FCV2 serves as an external flight controller for the VOXL2, and the ESCs are plugged into the flight core.
Also, I was following the regular instructions for calibrating ESCs. I plugged into the FCV2 via USB.
Interestingly enough, I flashed the stable release 1.14 firmware and did not see the same issue. I was able to calibrate the ESCs with no issues on the stable 1.14 firmware.

Another (slightly) related question. What is the difference between the custom Flight Core V2 firmware that ModalAI provides and the stable release? I am curious if it is a bad idea for me to use the 1.14 stable release.
