Hello evryone,recently I aquired an DJI S1000+, an A2 flight controller and IOSD mark II. Already configured the channels of an Futaba FASST, 2,4 GHz, T8FGS RC, callibrated the sticks, callibrated the GPS/Compass and IMU, updated the firmware, but I cant seem to start the motors. GPS, compass, GPS atti, Atti, manual, Failsafe, all of them are blinking correctly. Don't have a Lightbrige installed nor a Gimbal. Don't what else to do.


I tested the motors with the DJI A2 Assistant, v. 1,6, and they respond correctly.


Could anyone help me out?

Thanks, anyway.

Check to see if you have a warning triangle in the Assistant. If you have the throttle or perhaps one of the controls reversed it will not start. Have you ever had it flying before?

the A2 defaults to quad configuration....you need to change it to octo.

There is no warning triangle in the Assistant. Never flown it before. It is configured to Octo - V.
And this are some pictures to illustrate batter.

When you move the throttle/yaw and pitch/roll joysticks to their full down and inward positions, do the values show full range in A2 Assistant?

On mine I have a high/low gain switch on my Futaba, and if it is set to low gain, the joystick movements don't go the full range, so the A2 won't take it as a CSC command and the motors won't start.

When I switch the Futaba to full gain, then I can start.

...

When you push the throttle forward which way does the arrow in the assistant move? Left to right or right to left? Did you calibrate the controls in assistant? Do all the controls move left to right meaning when you move the stick right does the arrow in the assistant move right? When you push forward with elevator does it move left to right? Heres a DJI link. Note they have the "REV" box check in the assistant next to the throttle
