If you go back and look at my post earlier in the thread you will see this exact problem. You need to use triple rates on the ail tied to the switch you use for flaperons. This way you reduce the max ail by the amount of flaps and keep the ratio the same Sent from my motorola electrify using digital...

I contacted Steve, he said the usbasp programmer I have to program the 9x will work. Just have to get a cable made.

I assume that is firmware in the telemetrEZ board correct? anything special I need to flash or program that firmware?

I have the frsky module and the telemetrez board. I can set the bec voltage on A1, but when I try to set a low voltage alarm nothing happens.

I set org alarm < 6v to test it but nothing. (the bec voltage is 5.5 as tested by my DMM)

I have tried to find what the definitions are for the Frsky menus without any luck. (since the search engine wont let me search for "frsky") has anyone made a list of what the defintions are? like what is the difference between "alt" and "Galt" what are "tim1"...

you can use this one too. stick TH, where you have to be at low stick, ID0, but it gives you 5 secs to turn it back off in flight in case you hit it by mistake or need to undo the TH switch.

I dont know if they all do this, but I know the TH9x has an idle alarm as well. if no button is pushed and no stick is moved in 10 minutes mine starts beeping.

I know this is a little older, but this is how I setup my Tail gyro and makes it very easy to setup the tail and make adjsutments. CH06 +15% Half Switch(gear) -15% Half Switch(!gear) +5% P2 Switch(gear) -5% P2 Switch(!gear) this gives me an initial setting of 15% for headhold and 15% for ratemode ti...

Mike.

indeed! save a $10 battery from a slight amount of posible damage and crash a $200+ model as the trade off, no thanks!

I would check the simple stuff, you have bind? the LED on the rx should be lit.

also look on the LCD and see that you are actually getting changes on the channels.

if I am not mistaken, all multi-rotor have a control board that directly controls the motors. be it 3,4,6,8 motors, doesnt matter. The gyros on-board direct power to the correct motors to stabilize and take commands from the RX

a simple AETR setup with gyro gain should work fine.

that works really well except for one thing. when you set either stage of flaps you offset the ailerons. this means that at 30% down flaps and full left or right AIL stick makes one aileron at 100% and the other one at -70%. that is 30% more aileron on one side than the other. that would create more...

you are correct, I would add an ID2 line identicle to the ID1 line. I made the correction in the file, thanks for the catch.

this is an improvement on the sticky TH that is in the templates. Initially it makes you put the radio in ID0, low throttle stick to start the motor. (keeps you from releasing TH switch with throttle stick on or in idle-up) once you have started the motor you can set the throttle hold switch to kill...

thanks, I didnt even think to try to set a static variable with the --- showing, lol.

I also changed my timer switch for "v>ofs ch5(throttle) -98"

that gives your switch a little wiggle room.

maybe I am missing something here, but I cant see how to use the GVARs. I can scroll through all the GVAR variables, but they dont allow you to set anything, they just mirror whatever that input is doing. EX: If I set it to AIL, then I can see the value that the AIL channel is sending while I move t...

Usually using antenna gain only to increase range comes with limitations. The concept is that if you start out with let's say 50 Mw of omnidirectional power (donut shape, dead at the tip), its spreading that power in a 360 deg pattern. If you alter the antenna length, and with a matching network st...

have been reading about this all morning. very cool sounding board. very interested in getting one once they come out.

Totally agree, first thing I thought when I saw it. 4 switches in a group like that is asking for trouble

I do as kilrah suggested for my HH gyro. set the gain close to what you think will work. adjust till it is right, then copy that value into the mix value. so if I want 54% gain for HH mode and 40% ratemode gain the code looks like this ch06 +54%HALF Switch(GEA) -40%HALF Switch(!GEA) +30%P2 the pot g...

bah! how hard would it be to use the same protocol and make everything compatible?


oh well, xheli has the 6ch in stock.

does anyone know if these will work?

hate to bring up an older thread, but I am about to buy a lama v4. it says it uses "spread spectrum dsk" is this a form of dsm2/dsmx or can er9x with the standard module control this sucker?

post your mixer and your curves. much easier to see if something is wrong if we can see it.

just as a second, the sticky throttle is right.

Be careful with those efl connectors. They pull off boards easy

if you had a dedicated network, it might work.

I actually do something like this for a living. we set up long distance wifi links and can control PTZ camera equipment. there is not enough latency to see on the video or the control of the PTZ camera. but we make our own network too.

ok, nevermind then

the title of that forum doesnt scream out general discussion, lol.

Maybe this has been suggested before, but could we benefit from an open forum like general discussion or off-topic? would give a good place to just chat or ask mods forum related questions.

Just make sure out can't fall out or come loose during flight, that would suck
