I have problems with my pixhawk nearly like a post from joernsn.
But in my case in the QGC console I can’t execute “param reset” as result nsh: param: command not found
SD card seems to be working correctly lists the contents, and I can both create files and read them from a computer but with no bin. file under LOGS
I am not sure that I understand what you mean.
In the QGC it will be detect as PX4.
The current firmware was only burned with the Mission Planner and not with the QGC.
On the SD card after I can not see a log file after operation in the APM folder.
In the QGC console I have a feedback but bye execute a command an error-message came as feedback as example nsh: param: command not found
That is what I meant. If you installed the Firmware using Mission Planer you have installed the Arducopter FlightStack.
The Command you are referring to is a PX4 (another FlighStack and what this Forum is about) Command. So it may or may not be available on Arducopter - in your case it is not.
Either check with Arducopter (Documentation or Community) or install PX4 Flightstack (using QGC and choosing PX4 when installing new Firmware).
Ok, now I have understood.
I have checked this with the PX4 Flight Stack and QGC.
SD card was new formated.
After selecting from the airframe the pixhawk start a reset but the selected airframe was not stored and is stil in red.
In the bootlog the PX4IO CRC was signet with OK.
He not save my parameters. Where will the parameters saved? In the STM or in the external onboard I2C storage.
I have seen that the time stamp in the log file is set to the 01.01.2000.
I assume it gave a RTC reset and what was also additional reseted?
The battery voltage are correct with 3.0V
I have no idea what can I do before I say the controller is scrap.
I am facing the same issue with matekh743slim. Are you talking about replacing the hardware chip? Is it really required? Because, more than 2 matek boards are having the same issue with storing the parameters.
Tested again today. It really seems to be a hardware issue. Did some tests with fresh fat32 SD cards, nothing changed.
The problem arised slowly: First everthing was operating normally, I was able to safe params as usual while configurating in QGC. I plugged in the battery a couple times for moteor testing. All of a sudden I was not able to safe anymore.
Today I tested again, also plugged in battery a couple times before I noticed a toasty smell. Seems that a transistor on the Matek H743 got really hot and caused the param saving problem. I finally bricked the FC afterwards…
Be careful when you notice that you are unable to safe params.
