Important: To use the board through the UBS-Port, you need to power it with external battery. ThatвЂ™s it, now you have the Cleanflight firmware on your CC3D board. Check the вЂњI know what IвЂ™m doing!вЂќ box and then вЂњFlashвЂќ button. Now you can open the downloaded cleanflight_CC3D.bin. Open the OpenPilot GCS software, connect the CC3D board through the USB-Port, go to the вЂњFirmwareвЂќ-Tab and click the вЂњHaltвЂќ button. Download the вЂњ cleanflight_CC3D.binвЂќ from GitHub.

Install the Cleanflight Configurator from the Chrome Web Store and download the latest Cleanflight firmware for the CC3D board. Download it from the official ST-webpage and install it. We also need the STM32 Virtual Com Port driver.

Here is a manual how to install it, if you have some problems with that. I have tried it yesterday and will show you, how to do this if you donвЂ™t want to watch the video.ДЇirst download the OpenPilot GCS 15.02.02 (the newest 15.05 does not support the CC3D board) and install it on your computer. I used my Arduino Nano as FTDI adapter to do this, but Bill posted a video in the comments, how the board can be flashed only through the USB-Port.

In one of my previous post, I described how to flash the Cleanflight firmware on the CC3D flight controller and why I prefer the CC3D over Naze32 at the moment.

Yes, the processor is still the STM32 F1 and not the newer F3 or F4, but it is ok if you are using these kind of sensors. Most of the changes on the Naze32 rev6 are very welcome. The problem is, that the ESCs are powered too, because 5V are going to the servo rail. When powering the Naze32 rev6 via PC-USB, you need to know following fact: your receiver is now powered too. The new Naze32 rev6 have a bit changed design. You can now use the integrated 2MB flash memory on the Acro Naze32 rev6 for logging data (blackbox feature). If you are using Spektrum Satellite or SBUS receiver, you donвЂ™t need to hack the Naze32 anymore. Through pin holes for the receiver are very welcome, as many pilots (including myself) have broken the receiver pads after crashing. I have an upgraded Naze32 rev5 with barometer on my SG Acro and have never used it. Having a barometer is a nice feature, but I am not sure if it is needed on an acro quadcopter. Because of this, if you are planning to use the Cleanflight firmware on the new Naze32 rev6, you need to wait a bit for a stable release. Sadly the MPU6500 is still connected via I2C (unlike other F1 boards with MPU6500, Paris Air Hero32). The new MPU6500 gyro and accelerometer allows communication per Iв¬ and SPI too.
