@madaquif ,I bought it from QuadKopters.com.Where to connect on the 3 pins ,as mine is having single pin connector?

@cyberhack,I have watched the video before,that person is also using a cable with 3 pin connector,also cable colours are matching the reference picture.

As per reference picture the white wire has to be 3rd wire,but in my case its 5th !

Just follow the sequence of wires , ignore the color.
connect red and black wire to power the receiver all the pins in middle row is Positive and last row is negative in all receiver.

You have to take care of this red and black wire only, because these are the power wires. where ever you connect the other wires, it wont cause any damage.
oh , it's now only came to mind that you still don't have a receiver !! , so please don't worry about this now, i can help you by marking in receiver if you want.

I am leaving the topic for the time being,on the basis of support offered to me ,I will keep updated as am yet to get my receiver from sooraj.(@sooraj,kindly send it with markings made Thumbs Up-but can that be useful ?as problem is with wire colours),as am a total newbie ,here- so my doubts may appear silly to veterans! Roll Eyes
Trial and error method must work out ok,but if the colour coding was perfect it would have been great for newbies. Thumbs Up
I was just checking all the parts and going through various videos.But couldn't see a cable I had hence got confused,thanks everyone for the support,once again.

@Satya,thank you for the detailed explanation Hats Off.If you don't mind ,please share it here so that others too will be benefitted.

So the only wires need to be worried about are red and black ,right?

One more thing I wish to clarify,where to connect the single connector on to the 3 rows of pins on reciever ?middle one?

Re:

Restart your PC, connect your CC3D, and open openpilot GCS after a while.. Usually the gcs should open up with the CC3D already detected and connected. Now enter vehicle setup wizard, from there upgrade firmware on the board.
If you don't know what you are doing, install team viewer on your PC and we can solve this out together Thumbs Up
