The HOBBYWING XRotor F7 Convertible Flight Controller must use the HOBBYWING_XROTORF7CONV Firmware.
After flashing before applying the custom defaults, be sure that the correct firmware is selected in the drop down before applying the custom defaults, otherwise you will run into issues and may "lock up" the FC.

> before applying the custom defaults
What custom defaults does this refer to? Are custom defaults required to flash the HOBBYWING_XROTORF7CONV firmware?
The custom defaults no longer apply to betaflight 4.5.x the custom defaults are already built into the cloud built flash. Please note that if you are flashing 4.3.x or 4.4.x before you connect to the flight controller for the first time after flashing it will ask to apply custom defaults, which are the pin designations for the flight controller. (gryo, uarts, etc…)
Good day. I bumped into the situation when the FC locked up.
This happened when I was trying to flash the new firmware to FC via Betaflight. FC notified me that it is locked for updates. I switched to DFU mode several times to bypass protection. And on the 4 or 5 attempt, it locked up and stopped connecting to Betaflight.
Could you help me unlock FC? Thank you.
