Cube Orange PX4 installation fails

Hi Torbjon,

The drivers problems with the Cube Orange specifictly, could be a nightmare. Is not strange to being able to connect to a Cube Black but not to a Cube Orange.

I suggest you the next workaround that has worked for me many times:

  1. Uninstall QGC.
  2. From Device Manager unistall both Cube orange devices (with the orange plugged). After that unplugg the Cube.
  3. Enter to Mission Planer (in case you have it installated). Press Ctrl+F and select “clean drivers”. Unistall Mission Planner.
  4. Go to UAV drivers installation folder (usually within Program Files) and execute “cleandrivers”.
  5. From Control Panel, unistall “UAV Drivers” application and all the HEX microsoft drivers.
  6. Restart computer.
  7. Install Mission Planner. When you connect now the Cube Orange you will see this within Device Manager.

  8. Install a stable version of QGC. Important: Don’t install again UAV drivers (press cancell in that step).

In case that solution didn’t work, you will need a deep clean of your drivers.
For that, first of all clean all the drivers within the device manager of old cube/hex devices following this link:

After that, clean the cube/hex drivers using a tool like this one (trial version):

After that, reinstall Mission Planner and QGC again.
