Armattan Mullet - Acro Naze32 rev5 Compatible Flight Controller

The Naze32 Flight Controller board was the very first board I purchased when I chose to build my first Quadcopter. However when I got the board from Armattan there was some signal issues with several of the channels. When I would apply any stick inputs from the Transmitter, multiple channels on the flight controller/receiver would be activated. Meaning if I applied just throttle on the Transmitter the Cleanflight Software shows that channels 1,2,4,5 would also be activated. That can be a huge problem especially when its only one channel your tying to control.I returned the board to Amazon, but before I contacted Amazon, I tried to contact Armattan for a replacement or some sort of instructions on what I could do to resolve this issue. I was replied to a few moments later basically stating that they can't verify my soldering skills and that I fried the Naze32 chip... So I just sent my return to Amazon and got a brand new Board a few days later.. Thanks Amazon!! Great Customer service!!

I selected this for my first mini-quad (QAV250).I did a ton of research and ended up with this over the OpenPilot CC3D.What I like about it:- The price- Easy to install (Used the google chrome extension and I was surprised!)- Easy to flash/update- Easy to program- Great job at keeping my newb self from crashing :DWhat I did not like (Still not enough to take a star away!)- I had to solder the pins myself... BUT... This was my first soldering job EVER and I was scared to hell to screw this up. But I did a pretty good job with it! And it works! Here are the tips I can give you:- Use a GOOD soldering station with a GOOD tip (properly sized).- Use FLUX, use FLUX, use FLUX, use FLUX.... etc... don't even try without!- Use the right solder and the right temperature for it.- I don't have the best eyes, so I used 'helping hands' and a big magnifying glass! :DDefinitely recommend this tiny flight controller, I LOVE IT.

I have this on a 250 sized quad and it does a great job. Also, this is a really nice kit at a good price. Most of the other Naze32 you just get the board and end up chasing down the little parts.Soldering the pins onto the board is easy. There are lots of youtube videos showing how. The big trick is using a cloths pin or something to hold the parts together so that you have both hands free to do the actual soldering.There are pdf manuals for this controller online and youtube videos showing how to set up the controller. I mostly used the videos.As for performance, I think the Naze32 acro is pretty much top dog for multicopters and FPV multicopters. This isn't an autopilot that can fly the copter through a bunch of GPS way points though. The APM 2.6 (or latest version) or the pixhawk seem to be the secret sauce for that.

Board worked well when I could connect to it to configure functions. The usb port is suface mounted only. There are 4 support posts that should be soldered into the board vias to provide sturdy resistance to the usb cable insertion forces. Since the two back posts are the only ones soldered in and the two front posts don't exist, the usb port peeled off the solder pads after less than ten uses.

Pretty amazing controller. It performs much better than I expected. Easy to program and to wire up. Great documentation out there for it, makes it easy to understand.Building a quad? You should fly over to buy this.

doesn't connect to baseflight or cleanflight configurators. no clear way to update firmware, to allow it to be programmed, as unit is not recognized by any recommended firmware updaters. i've spent 5 or 6 hours at this point trying to get it readable without an emergency cli failure and i don't think it's possible.

What can I say? It's a Naze32. Awesome flight control board. I use it for my FliteTest Versacopter and it is rock solid. It has taken some crashes on two of my copters and still flies like new.

This is a real deal Naze and it works great. It's nice that it comes with all the standoffs, pins, and cables that you will need.
