BetaFlight Configuration Tool Links

Various FV-31 Cypher FLEXF3 settings can be edited using a BetaFlight Configuration Tool. We use the following ones. Only one configurator install is needed. Multiple links to multiple platforms and versions are provided below.

  • BetaFlight Configurator For Windows PC (Typically a Windows 7, 8, or 10 PC will use the Asset with name "betaflight-configurator-installer_<version>_win32.exe"). Works via Micro USB cable. Versions for Mac OS X and Linux may also be available. Flex does not test or support these versions.

Available Electronic Settings Experimenters

These are set using the Command Line Interface (CLI) using a configuration tool for Betaflight. Typically a "ENTER" is required after typing the command.

  • The "DUMP" command will show ALL settings.
  • The "get cyp" command will display all Cypher specific settings which include:
    • cypyawpgain, cyprollpgain, cyppitchpgain, cypnwpgain, cyplelstrim, cyprelstrim, cypnwstrim, cyptofwf, cypfrfwf
  • Setting notes: Range can be seen in the using "get cyp". Default in ().
    • These are the Proportional gain settings for the elevons, yaw differential throttle in forward flight, and nosewheel. Higher numbers are more gain, lower numbers are less
      • cypyawpgain (20) - Yaw/Rudder for differential thrust in forward flight
      • cypnwpgain (20) - Nose Wheel steering
      • cyprollpgain (17) - Roll/Aileron for elevons
      • cyppitchpgain (17) - Pitch/Elevator for elevons
    • These are the "subtrim" settings for the elevons and nosewheel servos.
      • cyprelstrim (0) - right elevon - positive number raises elevon
      • cyplelstrim (0) - left elevon - positive number raises elevon
      • cypnwstrim (0) - nose wheel
    • These are settings that allow some adjustment of the attitude during the transition. Make any changes '1 Unit at a time.
      • cyptofwf (0) - Transition from hover/45 degrees to forward flight - positive number raises nose - negative number lowers nose
      • cypfrfwf (0) - Transition from forward flight to 45 degree/hover - positive number raises nose - negative number lowers nose
  • To change a setting follow this example that raises the right elevon about 10 subtrim units from center
    • set cyprelstrim = 10 -> ENTER - sets the value - will be echoed by the CLI.
    • save -> ENTER - saves the value to the FLEXF3 PCB - elevon will shift up slightly
NOTE: save is typed, this is not the 'Save to File' button!
