Good afternoon all,
I'm having an issue with the ELEV-8 Flight Controller Firmware. I've used both Versions 1.0.2 and 2.0.1. Both are saying the build is complete, but the above error keeps happening. I've tried different computers, different micro-USB cables, and a different flight control board with no change. Can someone please help me figure this out? Below is the error code.
propeller-elf-objdump -h cmm/elev8-main.elf
Done. Build Succeeded!
propeller-load.exe -Dreset=dtr -I C:/Program Files (x86)/SimpleIDE/bin/../propeller-gcc/propeller-load/ -b QUICKSTART cmm/elev8-main.elf -e -r -p COM3Error is : No error
error: opening serial port 'COM3'
Error is : No error
error: opening serial port 'COM3'

First question to help you along, what platform are you on? Windows-Mac?
The Flight Controller might not be on COM 3. I only use SimpleIDE on Windows to select the Com Port in the upper right hand drop down box.
I am using Windows 10, and the drop down box says Com 3.

Unplug the board before you do this.
Reboot the computer after install.
Plug in the Flight Controller.
Open SimpleIDE and see if there is another COM port available.
