Hi
Need a bit of help, I am having trouble connecting my Cube Orange to MP 1.3.7 on my windows 7 PC.
I had no issue connecting with Cube Black.
Where can I down load the driver for Cube Orange for windows 7?
sorry,
forgot to mention that I tried installing the driver from the direct link below also.
http://firmware.ardupilot.org/Tools/MissionPlanner/driver.msi
@NadMan I wouldnât recommend Windows 7. Do you have a Windows 10 machine available?
Windows 7 is very problematic on this. It can be done but not always working. I will post something to try now
I have written an overview for this on a pull request for the docs section on Cube driver and install issues. The drivers are below for you
Cube Orange & Yellow - Windows 7
There are known issues installing the Cube Orange and Cube Yellow with Windows 7. Its advised you use Windowns 10 or later however Windows 7 can be made to work in some circumstances by manually deleting the driver files and installing the latest driver file and forcing Windows to install the correct driver manually.
- Delete ProfiCNC CUBE H7/F7 from device manager while the Cube is still connected, then disconnect the Cube from USB.
- Uninstall and reinstall the latest Cube drivers as linked here
http://firmware.ardupilot.org/Tools/MissionPlanner/driver.msi
- Reconnect the Cube Orange/Yellow and two devices will show up in âOther Devicesâ called CubeOrange-BL.
- The top entry will change to CubeOrange and you should see the message from windows notifying you that it is installing device drivers.
- CubeOrange-BL will move to the Ports section and be named Cube Orange Mavlink (COMx)
- If the âCubeOrange-BLâ in Other Devices" does not move to Ports after a few moments, right click, go into properties, click on the driver button and wait, it should then move to Ports and is named Cube Orange SLCAN (COMx).
Your ports must look like this

Hi Ian,
Thank you so much for your reply.
I followed your instruction and Cube Orange is connecting with no issue now.
I just like to mention that step â1â is to be done exactly as you have it, otherwise it will not work.

Hey there, I have been facing similar issues connecting the cube orange. When I install the drivers, the com port says âUSB serial drive(com x)â instead of the slcan and mavlink ports. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both the Mission planner as well as the drivers, but face the same problem every time. Even tried this on another windows 10 pc and a windows 7 pc.
Any suggestions that I can follow?
it show both COM.
Mavlink com is able connect but SLcan is not able to connect.
any solution?
Hello group, I hope you can help me, I am building my first drone with a cubePilot and an orange cube but I have not been able to synchronize it with the mission planner, I have tried everything I saw in discussion forums and nothing.
I think itâs a problem with the drivers.
I appreciate you can help me, thank you.
Silly question time⌠did you install firmware first? We ship with no firmware
Philip, thank you for your answer, no where can I find how to install the firmware, it is a cube orange standard set, thank you
Try the instructions here.
Donât connect till it has firmware
That error would indicate a px4 error⌠but it doesnât ship with px4 bootloader
It ships with Ardupilot boot loader
Where did this cube come from?
Thank you for your response, I actually inherited the project from a friend who could not finish, he is no longer with us and cannot give me information about what he had worked on with the orange cube, I checked the memory and I see that he has the firewall installed, Here is a video of what it does when you connect it.
