Build Status

Floureon H101 and Eachine H8S acro firmware ( red board )

now with dual mode as well

DO NOT ACCIDENTALLY FLASH THE H8MINI FIRMWARE TO THE H101 (it may break it)

Select folder for the correct firmware:

  • H101_Acro: Acro only, inverted flight possible (manual on a switch)
  • H101_dual: either/both modes, inverted flight possible (manual on a switch)

Note for H101_dual code: By default motor direction is automatically set at takeoff / zero-throttle, based on orientation.

For programming the ground pad is marked (B-) on the pcb(near the edge) .It is also close to some other components. Note there is also a (B+) pad,do not connect this.

It works with Devo, stock or H8 mini tx.

You could also use diy nrf24_multipro module by Goebish or DIY-Multiprotocol-TX-Module which supports telemetry.

  • GigaDevice GD32F130G6 cortex-M3 32k
  • Invensense gyro + accelerometer
  • XN297 transceiver
  • 8 Nfets and 8 Pfets. The P fets are controlled together in 2 groups of 4.

Cpu datasheet: Pdf Cpu Documentation: Pdf

The firmware needs Keil.GD32F1xx_DFP.1.1.0.pack which adds support for the cpu to Keil (5.15 used). Later Keil versions will ask for the pack to be installed if not present, and will download it automatically.

The firmware flash procedure is the same as the H8.

###Changing settings

config.h - all settings: rates, switches/buttons config, other options

pid.c - pids ( tuned for standard H101)

angle_pid.c (dual mode only) level mode pid, also uses acro pids in level mode, so it should fly ok in acro mode first.

After changing settings, remember to click compile first, not just upload.

#####Stock tx: On the stock tx only the rate (expert) button works. Trims are not functional on the stock tx, but the buttons can be used for controlling functions such as acro / level switch.

#####Devo tx: Channels work as intended except the rate/expert channel which is always on. Dynamic trims are not used, and trims should not be required.

Assign the extra channels to the desired functions in config.h. A setting such as "#define LEVELMODE DEVO_CHAN_9" could be used, for example.

#####Gyro calibration Gyro calibration runs automatically after power up, and usually completes within 2-4 seconds. If for some reason the calibration fails to complete, such as if there is movement, it will eventually time out in 15 seconds.

During calibration the leds glow from low brightness to high brightness. If movement is detected the flashing stops. The flashing resumes when movement stops.

The quad should be standing still during gyro calibration for best results

#####Accelerometer calibration (level mode only) For accelerometer calibration move the pitch stick down 3 times within about 1- 2 seconds. Wait a couple of seconds after a failed attempt. Throttle has to be low, and roll centered. Flashing lights indicate the calibration process. This is saved so it has to be done only once.

Note, the acc calibration also saves gyro biases which are used in some cases. The flash pattern is similar to the gyro calibration pattern.

Calibration has to be done on a horizontal surface

#####Led error codes In some cases the leds are used to indicate error conditions, and as such they flash a number of times, then a brake occurs, then the pattern repeats. In all such cases the quadcopter will not respond to commands, a power cycle will be required.

The most common of this is 2 flashes = low battery, usually caused by an in-flight reset due to low battery. All other flashes are non user serviceable. The description is in main.c.

#####Led flash patterns At startup the leds should flash a gyro calibration pattern for 2 - 15 seconds, with a glow like pattern. Movement stops the flashing while it occurs.

Following should be a fast (20 times/sec) flash indicating that the quad is waiting for bind.

If binding is completed the leds should light up continuously, while if tx connection is lost they will flash a short time a couple of times / second.

Overriding all this patterns except gyro calibration, is the low battery flash which is a slow, equally spaced on and off flash.
