Each time that I on my PC Mobiflight, ask me if I want to load the firmware to my arduino. The question is: why each time I must to upload the firmware?. I supposed that the firmware was saved the first time into the CPU of Arduino , but I don´t know why always ask me to upload. And several times also it lost the config. and I must to upload again. Any idea please?.

That´s wa the last question that I sent to you.

The problem today is the same:

I´ve 3 arduino Mega connected, buy only one has the mobiflight code. My problem is that Mobiflight think ??? that all the three are for MObiflight and each time that I run the program ask me that if I want to upload the firmware ...Another problem is that the program spend a great time to run and it´s very frustrating.

How can I clean all the Mobiflight program and how can make that the MObiflight see only the arduino mega that run the code?

I will like to start from cero but I don´t know where MObiflight save the configutation. I deleted *.config but the three MEGAS are always there.

Thansk for your help.

Best regards,

Hi!

There is an option on the MobiFlight settings tab so that MobiFlight will not automatically scan for other boards. Please try to use that one.
Have a great day!

Thanks, but the problem is, that I can´t run mobiflight.exe. It doesn´t work for me. I don´t know why the exe program don´t work. Any idea? Aby idea why 7.0.5. spend a lot of time to run?. I have 1 servo,

Asa I told you I like your program but for me is a lot of problems. I know that with your help I´ll get work Ok. And I know that it´s too difficult to help with a lot of differents configurations, people, etc, etc.

Best regards.

Use the auto update feature of MobiFlight to upgrade to the most recent version. If this ever does not work for you, download MobiFlight from the website, store it in a separate directory and start it from there.

With 7.3 you have the option to disable auto-update for the boards which is what you are looking for.
Have a great day!

EN español... ¿Tiene Ud idea del por qué tarde casi 1 minuto en ejecutarse el programa?. Al final funciona, pero tarda un tiempo excesivo. Saludos y gracias

Qué pasa si desconectas los otros Arduinos? Sigue lo mismo o inicia más rápido?
Have a great day!
