Wifi crashing on ESP32-C3 on release v2.0RC1 #82

Closed sierrayankee18 closed 2 months ago

sierrayankee18 commented 3 months ago

Hello,

I have been flashing v2.0 on esp32 c3 using online flasher at correct address, but every 20 to 25 seconds the wifi gets disconnected and again connects after a minute or so. The firmware seems to be crashing i am trying build a drone swarm but need long range . please provide a way out to connect 4 drones to a router for long range communication with esp32 c3 modules

Hi, I observe similar problems. I'm also using an esp32-c3 with v2.0 firmware. In AP-Mode I changed the settings to Client-Mode. The esp32-c3 connects to my home network. GUI is still usable. As soon as I connect to QGroundControl (TCP) the esp32-c3 crashes and stays in an unconnectable Mode, even after resetting. I have to erase the esp32-c3 and flash the firmware again to be able to connect to the gui.

But this is working (very stable) with an "normal" ESP32!

The actual esp32-c3 firmware seems to corrupt its memory.

Hi Stefan.

You are right the esp32C3 fw seems to be corrupt or something else.

If you find a solution for long range mode air and ground please share.

Regards Shravan Yadav

version 1.5 seems to be alright, but without the esp-now function.

sierrayankee18 commented 3 months ago

Yes I'm using that, but I'm looking to use it for long range like 1000mtr. Let me know if any solution is available

@thymjan Thank you for investigating! I will look at it.

Hii,

I am gonna use it for long range telemetry. In client mode there is a failsafe feature which gets activated when access point is unreachable for 25 seconds and switches to failsafe access point mode. Can we add a option to turn on and off this failsafe feature in GUI, cause sometime its required and sometime its not. I think a option will be good.

Regards

Please check the latest pre-release v2.0RC2 if the issue is fixed

@sierrayankee18 Still crashing?

seeul8er commented 2 months ago

Are you using GPIO9 or 8? Those seem to be problematic

sierrayankee18 commented 1 month ago

Yes I'm using the 9 and 10 pin for data and it's crashing

There was a documentation error. Do not use GPIO9. I recommend to use GPIOs 4 & 5 instead for TX and RX of the UART. The docs were updated accordingly.
