2. There is also no way to confirm that the setup actually set up. So is it working or not?



It is easy to see if the parameters specifications that you uploaded has been accepted by the brick.

Include this command in you config file:

$debug_out,fat,scheduler|config|baro|rf|gps|pffsm, all

After power up has completed wait a couple of minutes then remove the USB device.

Plug the USB device into a computer and open the file PFCxxxxx.txt (where xxxxx is the serial number of your brick) with a text editor. Don't look for the file by date as the file date defaults to Jan 2010.

The configuration data is all there for your enjoyment.

Regarding HEX/Octal etc - There are 10 types of people in this world, those that understand binary and those that don't.
