4. Arahan Operasi

4.1. Perisian Tegar Berkelip

The FOXEER F722 V4 uses BetaFlight firmware. To flash or update the firmware:

1. Download the latest BetaFlight Configurator from the official BetaFlight webtapak.
2. Connect the flight controller to your computer using a USB Type-C cable.
3. Enter DFU mode by holding the BOOT button while plugging in the USB cable, or by using the DFU option in BetaFlight Configurator.
4. Select the target firmware "FOXEERF722V4" in the BetaFlight Configurator and flash the firmware.

4.2. BetaFlight Configuration

After flashing, connect to the BetaFlight Configurator to set up your flight controller:

• Ports Tab: Configure UARTs for your receiver, VTX (Smart Audio), GPS, and ESC telemetry.
• Tab Konfigurasi: Set up ESC protocol (e.g., DShot), accelerometer calibration, and other basic settings.
• Motors Tab: Test motor direction and order.
• OSD Tab: Customize the on-screen display elements for your FPV feed.
• Blackbox Tab: Configure black box logging rates and parameters.
• CLI Tab: For advanced configurations or specific settings not available in the GUI. X8 support requires CLI commands.

5. Penyelenggaraan

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and reliable performance of your flight controller.

• Pemeriksaan Visual: Periodically inspect the board for any signs of damage, loose connections, or corrosion.
• Pembersihan: Gently clean the board with isopropyl alcohol and a soft brush if dust or debris accumulates. Ensure the board is powered off and disconnected before cleaning.
• Kemas kini Firmware: Keep the firmware updated to benefit from performance improvements and bug fixes.
• Storan: When not in use, store the flight controller in a dry, anti-static environment, away from extreme temperatures.

6. Penyelesaian masalah

If you encounter issues with your FOXEER F722 V4 Flight Controller, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Tiada Kuasa/LED Mati:
  • Periksa sambungan bateri dan polariti.
  • Sahkan bekalan kuasa voltage is within the 4S-8S LiPo range.
  • Inspect for short circuits on the board or connected peripherals.
• Cannot Connect to BetaFlight Configurator:
  • Ensure correct USB Type-C cable is used (data capable, not just charging).
  • Install necessary VCP (Virtual COM Port) drivers.
