GEPRCF722_BT_HD BF FIRMWARE 4.4 UPDATE problem with onboard black box and gyro...

[rancid saddle]

First of all to enable Gyro and Acc "custom define" GYRO_SPI_ICM42688P ACC_SPI_ICM42688P "
The problem comes with the onboard blackbox, FLASH_W25P16 FLASH_W25Q128FV FLASH_W25M02G FLASH_W25N01G FLASH_W25M enables only serial blackbox but not the onboard....
if i flash with core only the blackbox works normally but then the GPS doesn't....

Does this have a flash blackbox or a SD card slot?

[rancid saddle]

no sd card, only onboard

[broken nimbus]

Try including this in the custom defines: USE_SDCARD

Your core build shows the blackbox is being recognized as a SD card

And the manufacturer page for that board specifies "on board 512Mb SD card"

[rancid saddle]

omg thanks, that did it!!!

USE_SDCARD

and GYRO_SPI_ICM42688P ACC_SPI_ICM42688P

[novel anchor]

maybe these defines need to be PR's to unified targets.

[broken nimbus]

Yes, posted in #cloud-build-issues

I'll try to PR these today

Waiting until I get to a computer

[rancid saddle]

[wispy lagoon]

yeah

Hi I'm facing similar problem. I have a GEPRC mark 5 with a SPAN F722-BT-HD V2. No matter if I'm flashing the BF 4.4.2 core only or cloud the black box logging option is not there. I tried to flash a cloud with this custom defines SDCARD and SPI_ICM42688P ACC_SPI_ICM42688P but no change. Do you have any suggestions how to solve this?

[broken nimbus]

Reflash the FC without core only checked and without including any custom defines, then post the output of status in the CLI

[trim onyx]

This are the flash settings and the status cli

[broken nimbus]

This looks normal. Can you also post a CLI dump? If the SDCARD doesn't work with Core Only flashed either, it sounds like a hardware issue

I also have a GEPRC mark 5 Analog on 4.3. and it was working till I upgraded to the latest bf configurator. The same problem is there.

[broken nimbus]

BF or BF Configurator? If you flash this back to BF 4.3 the SD card works?

[trim onyx]

BF configurator (10.9.0). I tried to flash 4.3.0 but still the same

[broken nimbus]

BF Configurator would have nothing to do with whether your FC can detect the sdcard

[trim onyx]

Yeah I just thought it is worth to mention because it was working well on the Analog one and since then it doesn't work and I didn't upgrade that one.

[broken nimbus]

If it just stopped working and you haven't flashed anything it sounds like a hardware problem

[trim onyx]

this is the analog version. Both at the same time hardware?

[broken nimbus]

Have you tried formatting the SD cards?

Check the Blackbox tab

[trim onyx]

No such option both have this

[broken nimbus]

I'd contact GEPRC and see what they say

[trim onyx]

Eh its a pain to speak with them but I'll try

[trim onyx]

This is what they replied to me. I just don't believe that both at the same time would burn out 🤷‍♂️

[trim onyx]

I don't know if this may more helpful for the troubleshooting but I also did submit support data via bf cli tab: *** Support data submitted ***
Id: "4e3ae4c3-11a4-4da4-ad29-6d6568c11ad7" with a core only enabled flash

[trim onyx]

This is the second recommendation from GEPRC support but it didn't solve the problem

[broken nimbus]

Even with the core build it says SD card: Startup failed

Have you tried plugging in a battery first then connecting USB and seeing if the blackbox shows up? Otherwise, it definitely seems like a hardware problem.

I haven't seen a failure like this before, but if you have two boards with the same problem maybe they shipped out a bad batch
