Hi Sean,
It seems the cables on the Pi side of the connector are #1 coded while they are #3 coded on the motor controller side. So I got the most difficult intelligence test, combining those two combinations; not yet sure whether I failed or succeeded. But I am pretty sure I got 3.3V and gnd right. That's easy to measure if nothing else. The other two are the really confusing ones. What starts out as brown on the controller side comes out green in the other end. I know that from measuring continuity. And the other combo is green/ blue. Anyway, if I connect blue to pin 10 and green to pin 8 the leds will blink, while there will just be the power LED when I connect it the other way. Either way I have no success with the next step; I then get pypilot server: Connected and Autopilot Errors: No motor controller! in the Browser Control interface. I agree that I should switch places between blue and green so I can only say that I am super confused. I will sleep on it now!
