wizard x220 issues

tomeirik · May 18, 2018

hey. i recieved my wizard in the mail a few days ago.after binding my reciever and fiddling with updating to betaflight (3.3.2)from the stock eachine setup something changed... when i tested the motors the first time all of them worked fine.after the update motor nr2 wont spin. im thinking maybe a bad esc? And theres something else... i can no longer choose beetween flightmodes in betaflight (acro,horizon..and all that) they are not listed as options. when i arm it and move the drone it tries to level itself. im new to racing drones but have a phantom from before,and if the wizard levels itself i might as well fly the phantom

the "3d model" in betaflight doesnt move when i move the drone.
i cant find anything on youtube,probably because i dont know what to search for.
hoping for some good answers here and that my questions wasnt too confusing

All the things you describe need to be set up manually after a reflash. I'm afraid you have bitten off a big bite of the quad setup cookie with reflashing. If you can't get eachine to send you a copy of the default firmware to reflash, you can start watching youtube videos. Search youtube for:

Betaflight setup Joshua Bardwell
Betaflight project blue falcon

That will get you started. Yes it is a major pain in the ***. But once you get past the data overload stage, it isn't so bad. I would expect it to take around a week to absorb what you need to get it flying.

i went back,deleted the settings,and started over.again.angle and horizon are now ok and everything seems to be fine now.
but one motor still wont run,so i ordered 4 new ones. Racerstar 20A from banggood.hope to be flying the crap out of this thing soon . i guess starting this hobby have some costs
