Battery is plugged in, right? Have you tried reading the ESCs a second time after the first read failed?

[Dingl3berry]

Hello & thank you for your reply! Yes battery plugged in and I tried it multiple times I even watched the video with Bardwell he made a few years back he used 1.81 version I also and tried using the 1.81 version of the ESC-configurator and same results ESC NOT recognized

I've watched other videos where they plug in their ESC and the ESC-configurator just works but this one doesn't work for me!... I can always re-solder two motors wires to change direction if it comes down to that, BUT I was hoping I can have access to the other features by connecting to ESC-configurator!... any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏼

By retry, I mean, you read - it fails, you wait 20 sec and try to read again, while leaving it plugged in. in-between reads. Have you tried the stand alone AM32 configurator from here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qw2f7nM6OZftIE5GTgMPWB5zXCELxYG9/view?usp=sharing ?

From your description I also assume you can spin the motors from within Betaflight configurator, right?

[Dingl3berry]

I really do appreciate your help, Thank You! yes i can spin the motors in betaflight. and yes i did retry reading the esc after 20,30,40 seconds failure message while still plugged in to power. i tried rebooting my computer and esc stack, I tried a different USB port, I tried a different USB plug, I tried plugging in esc with power first then plugin into computer BUT I get the same results and that error message i attached above

[Dingl3berry]

oh and YES the link you set me above i did try that version 1.82 of the esc-configurator and i just tried it again as we are speaking and im getting no connection message let me see if i can load this video

i tried attaching pics above from the stand alone AM32 configurator but it looks like they didn't come out not sure why. but basically the configurator will show the 4 boxes numbered 1-4 referring to the motors but when i click on one of the boxes for example motor 2 it reads "M2: Did Not Connected" and nothing happens after that! oh and at the very bottom status it reads: "BAD OR NO ACK FROM IF"

Hmm, that's very interesting. So it's a general problem with your stack rather than with either of the configurators. Have you spoken to Skystar already? Could you link the specific product you bought? Do you have a different computer you could try on (just to exclude that as a factor, I don't really think this will be an issue, just to be on the safe side)?

[Dingl3berry]

I'm coming to the same conclusion that it's NOT a configurator issue it's a hardware issue! Thank you for your assistance I will follow up with skystars! We can close this claim and I thank you again 🙏🏼 for your time and quick reply's Have a great weekend!
