Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

Mike, that worked just fine and is much quicker than the 3 step process! Thanks! Just to help my understanding, on my 9XR PRO plugging a 3.5 mm jack into the trainer socket does power up the radio. I thought I needed to do that every time I flashed a module using the Update SPORT command so I could ...

Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

Mike, it occurred to me that maybe on the 9XR Pro, the powering off with the 3.5mm jack plug in the trainer socket trick might be needed to power up the R9M at the correct time when using the FlashElrs_atmel app?
This does not seem possible at present when running the app.

Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

Mike, thanks for your help. The time FlashElrs_atmel app worked for me I had taken a R9M with the stock Frsky firmware, used Update SPORT to flash the elrs bootloader (.frk) and then used FlashElrs_atmel to flash the elrs firmware. Attempting apply this elrs update, I tried all the combinations arou...

Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

Mike, just in case you have any suggestions for diagnosing this, today I tried using the FlashElrs_atmel app (for just the 2nd time) on my 9XR Pro to upgrade my RM9 to ELRS-1.2.0. After briefing displaying "power on delay" on the screen, there is a delay of a few seconds while it displays ...

Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

Brilliant,that "just worked"!
My unmodified R9M 2019 (the one without all the dangly wires) is working fine and is now transmitting within the legal 915-928 Mhz band for New Zealand.

Thanks Mike!

Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

Mike, the one remaining thing that makes ELRS hard to use with ErskyTx is that you need OpenTx to flash R9M modules with the ELRS firmware unless you solder on wires (to small,fragile pads) so you can use a STLink to program it. Flashing ELRS to the R9M is a 2 step process, first flashing a new boot...

Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

The 25Hz is too slow at present. My timer uses a 0.5uS resolution and I alternate between 2.5mS (5000 period) and "the rest". In the case of 25Hz "the rest" is 37.5mS giving a period of 75000, which is too large for a 16 bit timer, so I default to 4mS (250Hz). I'll see if I can ...

Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

Hi Mike, I would think, given how old some of the Txs and modules out there are, it might be common to have frequency offsets of >100 parts per million so a phase locked loop with a little integral gain might help, and is probably what you have implemented already. I use software phase locked loops ...

Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

It certainly used to be the case that changing the RF packet rate caused ELRS to have to reconnect, due to the SX12xx modulation parameters having to change. They may have made the link faster at synching up again since I last checked. I would be interested to try this latest version of ErskyTx on m...

Re: ERSKYTx (was ersky9x) Questions

I'm assuming that the ELRS module is sending the required rate in the CRSFshot sync packet, so I would need to look at that value and adjust the rate at which I send packets accordingly. If I send packet more often than every 4mS, I'm not sure what the timing will then be for telemetry packets comi...
