This is a collection of frequently asked questions. If you don't find what you are looking for, feel free to open an issue or join our discord.

Features

Frequently asked questions about specific features.

Can I use the melody editor with firmware XYZ?

The meldoy editor can currently only be used with the Bluejay firmware.

What format are the melodies in?

The melodies use RTTTL format. You can google for different melodies and there are also various editors for RTTTL tunes if you don't want to use the one that is integrated into the app.

Mobile

Frequently asked questions about mobile functionality.

Why does my flight controller not show up?

This can have different reasons:

  • Your OTG port is not enabled
  • A "feature" in the Chrome Browser for Android prevents Chrome from claiming a device - in this case there is currently nothing that could be done. You can help by up-voting this issue and Google might prioritize solving this issue.

But it works with native apps, why does it not work with yours?

Native apps can force claiming a device, as outlined above, this is not possible when trying to access the device via Chrome Browser.

How can I know if it will work on my mobile device?

Unfortunately there is no easy way to know that without trying. During our tests we found that it will not work on a lot of Samsung devices, but seems to be working well on a lot of devices made by Chinese vendors like: OPPO, OnePlus, Huawei, Xiaomi, etc. If you try it on your own phone, please report back if it is not working, then we might be able to find some patterns.

Why does it not work on iOS?

Unfortunately Apple does not want to implement WebUSB or WebSerial on their browsers, so there is no way to support for any of this on iOS phones.

Localization & Translation

Why does your webapp not support my language (yet)?

Localization is done by volunteers from our community. If your language is not support yet, you can help us translate this webapp into your language on crowdin. If your language has not yet been added, feel free to open an issue or drop by on discord

There is something wrong with they translation of language XYZ.

You can add a suggestion for a better translation on crowdin where our localisations are kept. If you find a mistake in the source language (English) please submit a PR here.
