NAZA M V2 hook up

Why won’t the Hawk"s Work ESC’s plug into the M1-4 on the NAZA controller ?

Hi, welcome to the dronetrest forums, since you are new here, I suggest you read this in order to properly format a question so we can help as its hard to answer when you provide so little info: :raising_hand_man: How To Ask For Help

But for your questions, based on some guessing:

Let’s troubleshoot this step by step:

  1. Motor Channel Mismatch:
  • Ensure that you’re connecting the ESCs to the correct motor channels on the NAZA controller.
  • The Hawk’s ESC for Motor 1 (M1) should indeed be plugged into the M1 port on the NAZA.
  • Similarly, ESCs for Motors 2, 3, and 4 should be connected to the corresponding M2, M3, and M4 ports.
  1. Orientation of Signal Wires:
  • When plugging in the signal wires from the ESCs, make sure the white wires are at the bottom.
  • The white wire typically corresponds to the signal wire, which carries information from the flight controller to the ESC.
  1. Check the NAZA Configuration:
  • Connect your NAZA flight controller to your computer and open the configuration software (such as DJI Assistant).
  • Verify that the motor assignments are correctly set up in the software.
  • Ensure that the NAZA recognizes the ESCs and their corresponding channels.
  1. Power Management Unit (PMU) Connection:
  • Plug the multi-color wire from the PMU into the X3 slot on the back of the NAZA.
  • The PMU provides power distribution and voltage regulation for the flight controller and other components.
  1. LED and Other Connections:
  • Connect the LED wire to the horizontal LED slot at the back of the NAZA.
  • Double-check all other connections, including GPS, receiver, and any other peripherals.
  1. Orientation of NAZA Flight Controller:
  • The arrow on the top of the NAZA flight controller must be pointed toward the front of the drone.
  • Ensure that you’ve mounted the NAZA correctly with the correct orientation.
  1. Physical Inspection:
  • Inspect the ESCs, wires, and connectors for any damage or loose connections.
  • Make sure there are no shorts or exposed wires.
  1. Firmware and Calibration:
  • Ensure that your NAZA firmware is up to date.
  • Calibrate the ESCs using the NAZA software.

Remember that troubleshooting drone components can be intricate, so take your time and follow the steps carefully.

Thanks for the feedback. I can’t load the USB drivers. Tried everything. Running Win 11
My latest is to load win 7 onto an old Dell I have laying around and hope it does not kick out the driver’s.
Any Ideas?

disable uac and driver signature in windows 10 & 11 :computer:

Changing or disabling User Account Control

  1. Click Start, and then search for and open Change User Account Control settings.

  2. Move the slider up and down to adjust the User Account Control settings.

  3. To turn off User Account Control, move the slider to the bottom on the Never notify setting.

  4. Click OK.

  5. Open Settings on Windows 11.

  6. Click on System.

  7. Click the Recovery tab.

  8. Under the “Recovery options” section, click the Restart now button for the “Advanced startup” setting.

  9. Click on Troubleshoot.

  10. Click on Advanced options.

  11. Click on Startup Settings.

  12. Click the Restart button.

  13. Press F7 or the 7 key to select the Disable driver signature enforcement option.

once you complete the steps, Windows 11 will boot normally, but with the signature enforcement feature turned off, allowing you to install unsigned drivers on the computer. After the installation, during the next reboot, the driver signature enforcement will enable once again, and you’ll need to repeat the instructions to install another driver (if applicable).
