Multi Wii flashing

[Gregulimy]

I built a Spider quad Electrohub which has the http://www.readytoflyquads.com/flite-test-electrohub-electronic-kit
I ordered it with MWC "Spider"
How do I go about changing this to "Quad X"?
(I know that I need to change the boom config on the quad itself, but i'm not sure how to re-program)
Thanks,

Greg,

"Spider" should be a "Quad-X" already, but if you want to change the config just to be sure, you'll have to rebuild and upload (flash) a new Mulitwii ROM to your flip board. Sounds horrible, but it's not that hard:

• In the Arduino IDE, open the multiwii sketch for your board ( for the flip 1.5, it's on the dropbox link at the bottom of this page)
• Open/navigate to the config.h file
• Make sure "QUADX" is the only item uncommented in "The type of multicopter" section (anything after a "//" on a line is a "comment" and gets ignored by the compiler. Most everything else get's compiled)
• Connect the flip board, and click the "upload" button -- the sketch will automatically compile and upload to the flip board.

If you have any other issues or errors, post 'em here and we'll help you sort them out.
