Rev 335 Problems?
Rev 335 Problems?
I had a very frustrating time yesterday programming a new model in eePe rev 335. It has a lot of involved mixes (for me anyway) for an EP glider with mixes for slow flaps, slow crow, auto crow retract with THR>1/2, reflex, camber, THR-ELE mixing, etc. Prior to getting into mixes I configured all of the Setup items and set all dual rates/expo, confirmed there were no curves, trims, etc.
OK, so as I'm adding mixes I'm testing them with the sim before continuing to add more. On several occasions I started getting some wild responses in the sim and when checking I see weird un-programmed values in the DR/expo, curves and trim values. So bad I dumped everything and started over. I had to do that a couple of times. When I finally finished the build and tried to make a copy of it in the group where I store copies of all my models, it won't copy! I get an Error: Unable to set model. Then when I acknowledge the error pop-up box a small corrupted file gets copied to my "all-models" eePe group.
Anyone else having similar problems?

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
I also found a problem with v335.
I backed up my heli setting while using v330. then I switch to v335. I did not check in eepe after backing it up in v330. but today when I opened the file in v335. the offset is different from what I have in the Tx. Never changed anything in Tx or eepe after the back up.
in Tx one model has the offset as ch1: -13.7 ,ch2: -5.2, ch6: -0.5, while in eepe v335 they are ch1: -13.0. ch2: -5.0 ch6: 0.0
another model in Tx the offset for ch1: 2.7, ch4: -2.7, ch6: 0.0, but opened the back up in eepe v335 they are ch1: 2.0, ch4: -2.0, ch6:0.0
wow! ch1,2,6 is for the swash plate, if some changes to the swash is made for different version, this could be disastrous when you think the swash is level while being changed.

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
If that's on the limits menu, eepe does that since a long time.. it doesn't like decimals.. I already reported this issue long time ago.. but it was classed as a minor issue..
It won't change the values again.. it just changes the decimals to zero..

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
Not just offset or decimal values. In fact, I had no offsets at all. My problems involved random and VERY large changes to dual rate/expo, and added limits and curves when none were programmed! All this before I exited the eepe and then when I finally got an uncorrupted eepe file it (and other older files) wouldn't copy even after closing and reopening the program.
Fingers crossed now hoping the issue doesn't recur.

Yes, it is in limit menu. this is not a minor issue for heli pilot. it will mess up the swash plate leveling.jhsa wrote:If that's on the limits menu, eepe does that since a long time.. it doesn't like decimals.. I already reported this issue long time ago.. but it was classed as a minor issue..

Looks like we need to knock on the twisted heads again.
Re: Rev 335 Problems?
So wait... can someone summarize the problem?

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
Of course.. You download your models into eepe to add a model or whatever you need to do.. when you upload your eeprom again to the tx, and if you go to the limits menu, the the offset value changed.. For example if you have previously set a value of 2.7, that value changed to 2.0.... 3,4 for example would change to 3.0.. it seems that eepe doesn't like decimal numbers
I don't remember but I think that happens when you get your eeprom from the radio into eepe and not when you flash it back..

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
yes, once you download your models to eepe, open up the eepe. it is all 0 after decimal point under the limit menu.
Re: Rev 335 Problems?
OK,
I'll look at it.

Ted, to help me understand you need to attach a model memory with the problem you describe.

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
Erazz: I guess you finally figure out there is more than 0 and 1 below the decimal points.
Re: Rev 335 Problems?
Sorry, but I can't duplicate the problem now. At the time, I closed eePe and re-booted my 'puter and the problem didn't recur. Microsoft magic at work.erazz wrote:Ted, to help me understand you need to attach a model memory with the problem you describe.

Problems with r338
Hoo, boy!
I just tried to download/install eePe r338. My virus program flagged it as suspicious but I continued with the install anyway. When I subsequently opened eePe it shut down my computer. I downloaded/installed 4 times with same results. Had to restore to earlier date to get 'puter back. Wazzup with that?

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
a couple of days ago I was playing with a landing gear and gear doors mixing in eepe and suddenly the gear doors started closing before the gear was down (they close with gear up and down).. didn't do anything to the mixes and it was working before.. restarted eepe and all was fine again.. sometimes eepe does something like this..

mine just installed fine.. but with the previous version the anti-virus also blocked it.. had to allow the install to finish..

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
Weird...
I'm compiling on Linux so the notion of a virus... well... I can't think of how it would get in the install.
Can you post the virus message?
Maybe you guys actually have a virus from somewhere else?

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
Mine blocked once when I wanted to install.. said something like potencially dangerous file or aplication, or something similar.. Then I told the anti virus to let it install, but when I tried to open the prog it blocked it again. I had to allow it again.. now is ok.. installs and opens without problems..

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
OK,
I think that Windows AV software are getting too much paranoid. Of course it is potentially unsafe! Heck, any binary is potentially unsafe. The whole OS is "UNSAFE".
I've just cleaned out all the binaries in the eepe build folder and recompiled cleanly.
For windows, I have included the precompiled libraries from Trolltech (makers of Qt), avrdude and mingw - all of which tested negative for infection last time I scanned them.
My suggestion, throw away the antivirus. The worst stuff today is stuff coming directly on your browser.

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
Just downloaded the eepe v339. the decimal problem is gone. Interesting thing is I did not change any thing other than open the eepe file backed up by r330 which showed 0 after decimal point in r335. and now the correct decimal number is displayed. Obviously this was just a display issue in eepe r335. the original data was not changed. For people used r335 backing up their model setting, there is no need to worry losing any setting.
and I did not have any problem with what Jhsa reported about being blocked by antivirus program. opened r335, asked if I want to download new r339, click yes, it was downloaded and installed automatically. I have Norton antivirus installed on my Win7. Not any message or popup from Norton.

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
the problem is the anti-virus is protecting the browser also lol
with mine was really not a problem.. just had to allow the aplication as I said before. it was a click of a button.. it opened it in what they call "Sand Box" just in case and asked me what I wanted to do..

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
Exactly what happened with me and when I told it to ignore the warning and load/run r338 it did so. Then, when I opened eePe r338 it crashed my 'puter not once but 3 times! (I'm a glutton for punishment and trusted erazz's file)

Re: Rev 335 Problems?
Hmm, interesting...
What's supposed to happen if on the Mixes screen you click on a mix and drag it somewhere else (e.g. onto another channel)? I'd have thought it would move it, but it seems it usually does nothing... however I encountered an strange situation when trying to drag a mix that had a Note... it looks like the Note must be taken as a mix string somehow...
This was the result of dragging the 2nd mix onto CH16:

The fix might be quite easy but I need something to test on.
