ARDUINO SERVO WIRING FULL

If the servo moves as expected, click the stop-button again. If your motor does not respond, then please check the control line connection to your MobiFlight Board.

Try out your settings by clicking the test button.

ARDUINO SERVO WIRING FULL

This makes sense if you don't want to use the full 180 degrees or if you like to prevent that the servo turns too much and makes some strange noises. The less the value the less the servo rotates. If you like you can reduce the full rotation amount by adjusting the value for 'Max. The servo motor now should rotate until the maximum deflection of 180 degrees. The Display Settings section automatically refreshes.Ĭhoose 'Servo'-Item from the DropDown 'Servo'. In the Display Type section, choose the correct MobiFlight Board from the list.įrom the next 'Use Type'-Drop-Down select 'Servo'. (The preset was intended to be used with a led). Go to the 'Compare'-Tab and deactivate the checkbox, because in this case we don't need any comparison since all values are used to control your servo. Now all settings are automagically set for you with the values from the preset. The Config Wizard shows up.Ĭhoose the correct FSUIPC preset, in this case we take 'Flaps - Position 1' as a good starting point. In this tutorial this is 'Flaps Position'.Ĭlick on the '.'-button at the end of the row. Now you are going to create a new configuration for the flaps position of your airplane in your flight simulator.įirst, you assign a name in the 'Description'-field. You are back to the overview - which is still empty. You close the settings dialog by clicking on the 'OK'-Button. Now your MobiFlight restarts and knows that a new device has been attached and that it is a servo motor. The button is the first one.Ī message appears that tells you that the upload has been successful. Click on the upload-button in the toolbar. There is one step missing: You have to upload the updated configuration to your selected board. In this tutorial you use pin2 for the control line and 'Servo' as label. This label appears later in other config dialogues and makes it easy for you to distinguish it from other devices On the right side of the tab, you now provide some additional information - these vary for the different device types.įor a servo motor the available options are:

Now a servo motor has been added to your arduino based MobiFlight Board.

As you can see in the image, there is also a context menu available where you can choose the same option from. For adding a servo click on New Device > Servo. There are several different actions available in the below the tree view. Hence, choose Extras > Settings > MobiFlight Modules-TabĬhoose your desired MobiFlight Board in tree view on the left. You must tell it on which pin your servo is connected. Now you open the Settings Dialog, because you have to configure your MobiFlight first. In this example it is empty, because nothing has been defined, yet. Thanks for your understanding.Īfter starting the MobiFlight Connector, you'll see an overview of your current configuration. The images in this tutorial are taken from the german version - I am pretty sure you can find the corresponding items in your english interface.
