I did more digging and it seems that the problem is related to the v1.14+ firmware I upgraded it to (from the Flight Core v2 downloads). For some reason in recent firmware updates it breaks the SBUS input.

I verified this by also upgrading a working VOXL Flight and was able to reproduce the same problem with the upgraded firmware in 1.14 and 1.15.

Any idea why this would break on the latest firmware releases?

Can you run the following after boot and compare what you see on a board with working wifi and non-working one:

There should be a bunch of wlan-related messages and you could diff the output between the two boards to help narrow down the issue.

FW update feature is working in QGC daily build starting today, no change needed on flight core v2.

Hi @liftedsystems
I just saw this now.. sorry for our delays on this...
We respond better when you start a new thread because we ALL get notified of it internally ... Thread replies are on a "best effort" basis to check so we miss some.... but if you wish to do so, please just tag us using the "@" like you did to get Chad and we will see that at a higher level too, but new threads are always the best!
Thanks, and I hope Travis gave you the info you were hoping for!!

@Chad-Sweet Yes, it usually is a good starting point. I do want to mention it took us 3 or 4 separate resets of all related radio settings before this particular glitch went away.

@modaltb Interesting, that's good to know they should be identical (what I assumed), that's why I was puzzled when it didn't seem to work.

On VOXL Flight we're using port J13 and it's always worked perfectly without issue the first time we're wired up a new unit.

I have not tried starting via the command line, but that's a good idea to try.

My best guess is a loose connection in the wiring somewhere or a pin not making good contact on the board. If it should be working the most obviously problem is user error on our part or something not making contact properly.

We ended up sending them one of our VOXL Flight units where we knew it worked perfectly each time instead of using the Flight Core because they were in a rush to get things working.

Thanks for the suggestions!
