Hi,
the Micro need Power!
One way is, get Power from USB - than you have to wire the 3.3Volt from USB to the Micro = four wires!
Or you plug a Battery 5 to 6Volt at one Servoport to the Micro - than USB will work with tree wire.

Thanks for the info, mine only has 3 wires, but is generating sound ok. DasMikro<>Esc is ok.
It is only the last problem, Benedini<>USB that is a problem.

There are a bunch of drivers you should install. I tried to upload them in the forum, but the uploads system wont let me upload .rar files or files a bit bigger than the limit here in the forum.

I requested it to be modified, because I wanted to upload everything here, but it did not happened, and also it seemed nobody had interest on those drivers...

I guess I could send it to you in an email.

The current limit is 350kb, what size is the biggest zip file? I will see if I can increase the limit.

The limit in the forum is already 10mbs. I think my files were something about 15. But also is important for me if you let me upload .rar files.

I can't see any way of changing this, I will ask Matt if he has access to anything that I don't. It may be a limit imposed by the hosts?

Yep, it might be a host limit... Worst case scenario I could send you the files in email

The two files you sent are the driver for the FTI, and the Benedini software. I already had these two.

It's odd, bought two DasMikro boards, one started working yesterday and one won't work at all.

I am going to try the one that won't work in my Traxxas TRX4, it 'might' be an issue with the esc that I have installed in my HL truck that is stopping it generating sound as that one runs off a 6v battery pack. I only have tomorrow morning to try it as I am away for the weekend.

Many thanks for your help, it is appreciated. I suspect that the programming unit that Bangood supplied has an issue with talking to the Benedini software and the DasMikro board at the same time via the USB. A friend has a genuine Benedini USB, so I will pay him a visit next week.
