Requires:

1 x sensor wire (length may vary from your systems)

Special hint on firmware upgrading error

Some customers report that they received an error code "-1073741515" when they try to upgrade the firmware to the latest version, this is caused by compatibility between GUI software and Microsoft .net edition. The previous edition GUI (2.2b or older) is designed to run under .net 3.5, it doesn't compatible with .net 4, if your .net is upgraded to version 4 (.net upgrading could be done automatically without your acknowledge ), there are two methods can resolve this issue:
Method 1:
Download the latest 2.3b4 version GUI software, then you can flash with official firmware, this version GUI already support .net 4.0.
or Method 2:
Use official recommended software Xloader, you can download the Xloader from official website, when use this tool, when you click "upload", you may receive a message "Upload failed", this is because the main board is rebooted, and actually the upgrading is success, you can check the latest firmware version with your parameter review software.

Question :
Hello! I buy to you a gimbal controller card, which you advertised as upgradeable SBG, I try to update it and can not, the card is marked as copy, is not an authorized card upgrades to bring them up.

Even now I can not seem to restore it to version 2.2b2 originally was bringing, as the firmware is installed who brought a pirated copy of the original verision of Alexmos.

I am not happy with your scam!

Pirated cards with code Alexmos bought for less than 45 USD

How I can make valid the warranty on this product? Because it is not the original, much less can not update the firmware

No problems here with loading 2.3 b5 firmware and talking to it with the 2.3 b4 GUI (win7 x64). Where is it marked as copy?

Discussion of this question:

Mine came with a black flexible silicone wire (four wires) with female connectors on each end. Just snap off four of the pins and solder onto the board and do the same with the IMU. Then plug the silicone jumper wires across between the IMU and the I2C pins as marked on the diagram above.
Then again they may have occidentally omitted the jumper wire.

Discussion of this question:

A1=RC_ROLL/SUM_PPM , A0=RC_PITCH , A2=FC_Pitch , A3=FC_Roll. Connect either Rx outputs or analogue joystick outputs to these pins and use those names to select which pins to map to the channels you have connected in the GUI.
