4.2 Câblage
Carefully connect your motors, receiver, VTX (video transmitter), camera, and GPS (if applicable) to the appropriate pads on the flight controller and ESC. Refer to the detailed wiring diagram available on the HGLRC official website for specific pinouts. Pay close attention to power polarity to prevent damage.

4.3 Mise à jour du firmware
The flight controller comes pre-flashed with HGLRCF722 (HGLR) Betaflight firmware. For updates or configuration, connect the flight controller to your computer via USB and use the Betaflight Configurator software. The ESC uses BL_S (F-H-40) firmware, which can be configured using BLHeliSuite32 or Passthrough via Betaflight.
5. Mode d'emploi
5.1 Configuration initiale
After physical installation and wiring, connect the flight controller to Betaflight Configurator. Perform the following initial steps:
- Calibrer l'accéléromètre : Ensure the drone is level and calibrate the accelerometer.
- Configuration du port : Configurez les ports UART pour votre récepteur, VTX, GPS, etc.
- Configuration du récepteur : Select your receiver protocol (e.g., SBUS, CRSF, ELRS) and verify stick inputs.
- ESC/Motor Configuration: Use the Motors tab to verify motor direction and responsiveness. If necessary, reverse motor direction in BLHeliSuite32 or Betaflight motor tab.
- Modes Setup: Configure arming, flight modes (Angle, Acro, Horizon), and other auxiliary functions.
5.2 Vérifications avant vol
Before each flight, perform a thorough pre-flight check:
- Vérifier le vol de la batterietage.
- Check propeller tightness and orientation.
- Confirm all control surfaces respond correctly to transmitter inputs.
- Listen for any unusual motor noises during arming.
6. Entretien
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your HGLRC Zeus F745 V2 Stack:
- Nettoyage: Periodically clean the boards with isopropyl alcohol and a soft brush to remove dust, dirt, or debris. Ensure no conductive materials bridge components.
- Inspections : Regularly inspect solder joints for cracks or cold joints. Check for any signs of physical damage to components or traces.
- Mises à jour du micrologiciel : Keep your flight controller and ESC firmware updated to benefit from performance improvements and bug fixes. Always back up your configuration before updating.
- Gestion des vibrations : Ensure the stack is mounted with adequate vibration dampening to protect the gyroscope and accelerometer from excessive noise.
7. Dépannage
Cette section aborde les problèmes courants que vous pourriez rencontrer :
| Problème | Cause possible | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Le drone ne s'arme pas. | Safety features preventing arming (e.g., low battery, no receiver signal, accelerometer not calibrated, DSHOT beacon active). | Check Betaflight Configurator's 'Setup' tab for arming flags. Ensure receiver is bound and connected. Calibrate accelerometer. Disable DSHOT beacon if active. |
| Motors not spinning or spinning incorrectly | Incorrect motor wiring, wrong motor direction, ESC calibration issues, damaged motor/ESC. | Verify motor wiring to ESC. Check motor direction in Betaflight Configurator's 'Motors' tab or BLHeliSuite32. Ensure ESCs are properly calibrated. Inspect motors and ESCs for physical damage. |
| Pas de signal vidéo | Incorrect VTX/camera wiring, VTX not powered, wrong VTX channel/band, damaged VTX/camera. | Check VTX and camera wiring for correct polarity and connections. Ensure VTX is receiving power. Verify VTX channel and band match your FPV goggles/monitor. |
| Flight controller not detected by computer | Missing USB drivers, faulty USB cable, damaged USB port on FC. | Install necessary STM32 VCP drivers. Try a different USB cable. Test with another USB port on your computer. Inspect FC's USB port for damage. |
