3.4 Power Output Specifications

• 5V výstup: 10 groups (3 pads on front, 6 in connectors on bottom, 1 BZ+ for Buzzer). Total current load: 2A.
• 9V výstup: 2 groups (1 pad on front, 1 in connector on bottom). Total current load: 4A.
• 3.3V výstup: Supported for 3.3V-input receivers. Current load: up to 500mA.
• Napájení USB: Receiver and GPS module supported even when FC is powered via USB, up to 1A current load.

3.5 Aktualizace firmwaru

The F7 V3 Flight Controller supports BetaFlight (default), EmuFlight, and INAV firmware. Connect the FC to your computer via USB and use the respective configurator software to flash or update firmware. WiFi and BLE can also be used for wireless firmware updates.

4. Návod k obsluze

Once installed and configured, the SpeedyBee F7 V3 Stack operates as the central control unit for your FPV drone. Ensure all connections are secure before powering on.

4.1 Počáteční zapnutí

Connect a compatible LiPo battery. Observe the LED indicators on the FC for status. Refer to your chosen flight controller firmware documentation (BetaFlight, EmuFlight, INAV) for specific LED patterns and their meanings.

4.2 Flight Controller Configuration

Use the appropriate configurator software (e.g., BetaFlight Configurator) to set up PID tuning, modes, OSD elements, and other flight parameters. The onboard OSD will display critical flight information during operation.

4.3 Blackbox Logging

The 500MB onboard Blackbox flash memory automatically records flight data. This data can be downloaded via USB or WiFi/BLE and analyzed using Blackbox Explorer software to diagnose flight performance issues or optimize tuning.

4.4 LiPo Monitoring

The integrated FC LiPo monitoring system provides real-time battery voltage and current data, which can be displayed on the OSD and logged in the Blackbox. Ensure proper calibration in the flight controller software for accurate readings.

5. Údržba

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliability of your SpeedyBee F7 V3 Stack.

• Fyzická kontrola: Periodically check for loose connections, damaged wires, or signs of physical stress on the boards.
• Čištění: Gently clean the boards with isopropyl alcohol and a soft brush if dust or debris accumulates. Ensure no moisture remains before powering on.
• Aktualizace firmwaru: Keep the flight controller and ESC firmware updated to the latest stable versions to benefit from performance improvements and bug fixes.
• Kontrola součástí: Inspect the capacitor for any bulging or damage. Ensure the CNC heatsink is free from obstructions.

6. Řešení problémů

If you encounter issues with your SpeedyBee F7 V3 Stack, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Žádné napájení/žádné spuštění:
  • Check main battery connection and polarity.
  • Verify USB connection if powering via USB.
  • Inspect for any visible short circuits or damaged components.
• Motors Not Spinning/Erratic Behavior:
  • Ensure ESC signal wires (M1-M8) are correctly connected.
  • Check motor direction and order in the flight controller software.
  • Verify ESC firmware is compatible and updated.
  • V případě potřeby kalibrujte ESC.
• Bez zobrazení na obrazovce (OSD):
  • Confirm camera and VTX connections to the FC.
  • Check OSD settings in the flight controller configurator.
• Connectivity Issues (USB/WiFi/BLE):
  • Zkuste jiný kabel nebo port USB.
  • Ensure drivers are correctly installed on your computer.
  • For WiFi/BLE, ensure the SpeedyBee app is updated and the module is enabled in the FC firmware.
