#

I have watched some videos and tried different ways and I’m still having a struggle

#

I have tried the WiFi way and other ways and I’m just lost and this is becoming a headache

Can you post what the log says?

Surely that's not all it says, no?

#

If you can, just copy/paste it here instead of taking photos

Is this over USB?

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 12:42 AM

#

yeah I belive so

#

i have the remote pluged into my pc rn

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 12:43 AM

#

Wait hold on - are you trying to bind ELRS? Or flash the firmware?

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 12:43 AM

#

Im trying to get my remote working with my drone and connect them

#

I have the radio master pocket elrs

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 12:44 AM

#

I take it the manual binding method didn't work, then?

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 12:44 AM

#

and I have to make a binding phrase or somthing

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 12:45 AM

#

lime ocean I take it the manual binding method didn't work, then?

the wifi one or what Im so lost rn idk what I have tried and havent tried at this point

#

is it the one where i plug in the battery like 3 times or somthing

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 12:46 AM

#

Yes

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 12:47 AM

#

I have the crux 35 and I have no clue if I have a built in one or if its seperate and how Im supost to do it exactly

#

some guy I watched just barely pluged it in twice and fully plugged it in and it worked with the remote

#

but when i did it ,it didnt

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 12:48 AM

#

It says it's an integrated RX on the product page

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 12:48 AM

#

could I get in a call with you and show you what Im doing

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 12:48 AM

#

What instructions are you following to bind the drone?

#

I'm not free to call right now sorry

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 12:49 AM

#

The one I mainly followed ways by captain drone

#

then I watched the bardwell one and that is where this code popped up from

ripe sparrow Jan 20, 2025, 12:50 AM

#

SPI receivers don't work with ELRS Configurator

#

Set the binding phrase directly in Betaflight, and then set the same binding phrase in the WebUI of your transmitter using WiFi

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 12:51 AM

#

so just search up beta flight and go throught the google one or do I have to download it?

#

https://app.betaflight.com/

Betaflight

Configuration and management tool for the Betaflight flight control firmware

#

because this is what Im looking at rn

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 12:52 AM

#

ripe sparrow SPI receivers don't work with ELRS Configurator

Yeah these guys are updated through Betaflight

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 12:52 AM

#

paper glen https://app.betaflight.com/

That's correct

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 12:53 AM

#

then click load firmwear correct>

#

the local one ?

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 12:53 AM

#

https://www.expresslrs.org/hardware/spi-receivers/

SPI Receivers - ExpressLRS

All-in-one Flight Controllers were released with ExpressLRS receivers using SPI connection.

#

I highly recommend you follow the official documentation

ripe sparrow Jan 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

paper glen then click load firmwear correct>

No

#

Don't

#

Don't update firmware

#

You will wipe your config

#

Connect to the flight controller using the "connect" button

#

I'm going to sleep now, hope someone can guide you through this now

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 12:59 AM

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 1:00 AM

#

yeah Im reading it rn

#

Its jsut the beta flight part is a little vegue

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

How so? What step are you on right now?

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 1:03 AM

#

Im just waiting rn for the downlaoding of the windows version at the moment

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 1:03 AM

#

Huh?

#

The Windows version of what?

#

Betaflight? You can use that in your browser

#

You don't need the ExpressLRS Configurator to set the binding phrase

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 1:05 AM

#

lime ocean The Windows version of what?

beta flight

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 1:05 AM

#

You can use that in any Chrome-based browser

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 1:05 AM

#

do I install it for all users or just for me?

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

Depends on if you want all users to be able to use it or not

#

But again you literally do not have to install it, it works on the web

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

whats your personal preference

lime ocean Jan 20, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

If it doesn't matter to you then it doesn't matter either way

paper glen Jan 20, 2025, 1:15 AM

#

ok Ill go throught chrome

#

I think I’m going to stop for the moment because I’m not fully awake/understanding what I’m doing

#

Then maybe I can get in a call with someone and go through it all
