Configuration Tools for Betaflight - Notes and 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, though Flex does not test or support these versions.

Use a Configuration Tool to Set or Reset the Angle/Six Axis Level
- NOTE: The wing leveling six axis mode is named ANGLE mode in Betaflight lingo.
- Place your Cypher on a level surface. Check that wings are level. You may want to shim the nosewheel up 2-5mm to set a more positive angle. (The angle relates to trim speed and can be set to taste).
- Connect to your configuration tool and navigate to the Setup page.
- With the Cypher level per above, click the Calibrate Accelerometer button.
- Note the settings are now zeroed out. You are finished. Disconnect.
