##Setup GNU ARM Toolchain
versions do matter, 4.8-2014-q2 is known to work well. Download this version from htps://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded/+download - preferrebly as a ZIP-File.
Extract the contents of this archive to any folder of your choice, for instance C:\dev\gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_8-2014q2
.
add the "bin" subdirectory to the PATH Windows environment variable: %PATH%;C:\dev\gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_8-2014q2\bin
Checkout and compile Cleanflight
Head over to the Cleanflight Github page and grab the URL of the GIT Repository: "https://github.com/cleanflight/cleanflight.git"
Open the Cygwin-Terminal, navigate to your development folder and use the git commandline to checkout the repository:
cd /cygdrive/c/dev
git clone https://github.com/cleanflight/cleanflight.git
To compile your Cleanflight binaries, enter the cleanflight directory and build the project using the make command. You can append TARGET=[HARDWARE] if you want to build anything other than the default NAZE target:
cd cleanflight
make TARGET=NAZE
within few moments you should have your binary ready:
(...)
arm-none-eabi-size ./obj/main/cleanflight_NAZE.elf
text data bss dec hex filename
95388 308 10980 106676 1a0b4 ./obj/main/cleanflight_NAZE.elf
arm-none-eabi-objcopy -O ihex --set-start 0x8000000 obj/main/cleanflight_NAZE.elf obj/cleanflight_NAZE.hex
You can use the Cleanflight-Configurator to flash the obj/cleanflight_NAZE.hex
file.
Updating and rebuilding
Navigate to the local cleanflight repository and use the following steps to pull the latest changes and rebuild your version of cleanflight:
cd /cygdrive/c/dev/cleanflight
git reset --hard
git pull
make clean TARGET=NAZE
make
