I' am trying to connect the speedybeef 405 mini to betaflight on a mac via usb. If I hit connet on betflight it says: 2025-05-14 @16:03:21 -- Failed to access the serial port. I have installed the CP210xVCDriver but it doesn't seem to help. I'm on betaflight 10.10.0 (c97deaf). I have tried other usb-c cables but nothing seems to work. The FC has a solid red light and a blinkin blueish-white led blinking and a second of these blinking.

I hope you can help me:)

the deadbot APP isn't helping because I have no CLI tab because the FC connection fails

i do not have Mac OSX, but A.I. reports this in regards specific to the CP210 driver.
maybe applicable, maybe not.

thanks but also not working on the webapp. I tried the command "ls /dev/tty.*" in my terminal and my computer doesn't recognize the usb device at all.

#

but I enabled all the allowings for the driver

#

what should I do?

Does macOS have the dmesg application? If so, what does it say at the end after plugging in the FC?

it has it but there are endless data shown after sudo dmesg mypasswort

at the end it says: altime upgrade required with inputPackets:0 outputPackets:2 packetThreshold:50

but I don't understand

Yeah, there's nothing USB related unfortunately.. Just WiFi stuff.. Could be anything though, incorrect cable, no driver, I don't know how one can differentiate between those though

@limber urchin the cable has the bluetooth trident on it, so it should be able to transmit data, right?
