Welcome to the forum!

How is the receiver connected to the Naza? Have you opened the Naza assistant and checked which protocol is selected?

Give us a bit more info and I'm sure we can get you straightened around.

 

[Kevin hindry]

Don't no what they are called but there is little wires to the naza not sure if that's called ppm or tradition

 

[Motopreserve]

The small 3 pin wires are called Servo wires/cables. Those should be connected between the radio and Naza ports for Aileron, Elevator, Throttle and Rudder. Also one for the 3-way switch to trigger the flight modes.

Have you plugged into the computer and opened up the Naza assistant to see if in fact the radio is communicating with the Naza? It could be that your 3-way switch is triggering fail safe if the end points have not been adjusted properly.

 

[Kevin hindry]

Yeah I have plunged it into the computer and it's not communicating with the naza it just tells me to connect to the controller

 

[Motopreserve]

Do you have Traditional or PPM selected?

Can you post a photo of the connections?

 

[Kevin hindry]

It the tradition way

[Motopreserve]

do you have traditional selected in Naza assistant? Are you seeing power to the receiver when you power up the system?

Did you bind the radio and receiver already?

 

[Kevin hindry]

Yes selected traditional in naza there is power to the receiver and radio is bind and I have a steady light on receiver

 

[Motopreserve]

Do the lights on the Naza assistant software show that the Naza is connected correctly and communicating with the computer (blue/green lights in the lower portion of the window)?

I would double check the servo wires and make sure they are all seated well. I'm sorry, I'm stumped here. Usually its something simple like cross-wiring or the wrong selection of the communication type.

Maybe try rebinding the radio to the receiver.

 

[Kevin hindry]

No not getting any lights on in the corner of the window View attachment 26161

 

[Motopreserve]

Ok. Now we may be getting somewhere. If there are no lights - that means that you are not actually connected to the software/computer.

Do you have the required drivers installed? You should be able to connect the Naza to the computer with/without the receiver. So let's get the communication going between Naza and computer and go from there.

 

[Kevin hindry]

No lights on at the bottom View attachment 26162

 

[Motopreserve]

Yep. You need to figure that out and then you can move to the other issues.

Make sure you follow the directions in the manual for connecting. Also make sure you have the most recent assistant software/drivers for the Naza from the DJI support page.

 

[Kevin hindry]

I think you have cracked it done the motor test and calibration so thank you so much will be back when stuck again hahaha

 

[Kevin hindry]

Ok now what do I do

 

[Motopreserve]

Glad you got it sorted.

If motor test and calibration has checked out ok. Make sure you enter where the GPS is placed on the frame. That's important!

Then check the flight mode switch to make sure the modes are working correctly. You watch it in assistant as you flip the switch.

I would highly recommend reading through the entire manual and making sure that you have done all their suggested steps.

If you hit a snag - let us know.
