Thank you Mike that's great news.

Hello Mike
May I kindly ask for your help.
We have a youngster in our club who needs a version for his X7Access-S (S-version radio).
We would appreciate your support.
Regards Chris

Hello After one complete season (2 trainers, 5 students, 5 planes) I've finally worked out my favorite version and have done a new lua script. It is a mix of two of the old versions. The control of rudders is switched from student to trainer when one of the sticks (ail, ele, rud) is moved. Control o...

FrSky Archer Access Plus Receivers are not fully supported #9015

Are you writing about this: 2022-03-22 v2.1.10 1. Enter the self-check mode through configuration, which facilitates operation and improves system security. (for RX with stabilization function). 2. Improve FBUS baud rate and adapt to the latest Xact servo update. Note: For ETHOS-based radio only， pl...

This new version of scripts has no new functionality.
It was done for program optimization.

It should run now on all Radios with OpenTX that are accessible in Companion 2.3.15.

Additionally it should also run on all Radios with EdgeTX version 2.6.0 or higher.

Hi we intend to offer more Buddy Flying in our club. So I did some research on existing methods and put some work in testing different settings for OpenTX (or EdgeTx). The result is a paper with three different types of settings. Whats new: They share in common that all settings (including calibrati...

Hi
I'm waiting for a fix that is announced for 2.3.15
Does anyone know whether there is a due date for OTX 2.3.15
Regards Chris

Hi Lubo As I understand you do not want to use a standard telemetry screen. Are the letters to small or is it that you do not want to select with the page button. I wrote something like that in LUA script. In fact this are two scripts. One is a script that does show and announce telemetry data. - ht...

Hi Im using a Taranis x9Lite-S Is there a way to select the telemetry view via a custom function (with a logical switch). Also to switch automatically from the general screen to telemetry screen and back. (I do use different screens, also with Lua scripts for very big letters. It would be great if t...

Hi Nesan

I wrote you my address in a PM (private Message)

Hi Nesan
At the moment I do have no really hot ideas.
You could check which Arduino IDE you have. (see my screenshot)
But I doubt that that's the cause of the problem.
May i ask which country you are from.
(You may send me one of the parts to test).
regards Chris

Hi Nessan my know how about I2C is also very limited. But what I've read there is something like a "bricked" i2C bus if you mess around. Have you tried the Zip File I've send you with the complete OpenxSensor (including my configuration for the GY86). You should unzip it and try this compl...

Hi Nesan Did a bit more thinking about the MPU-6050. The fact that a test code can read raw data from the the MPS-6050 is no guarantee that the IMU and wiring is ok. Reason: there is more than one option how the IMU can be setup. One is to send a request to the IMU, every time you want fresh data. I...

Hi Nesan You are right: my I2C Scanner also does not show the 0x1E Address But openXsensor does show the ACC values (see screenshot) with my GY-86. I have (for this test) downloaded a clean Masterversion of Openxsensor and modified only the two config files. I have attached a zip file with this Open...

Hi Nesan What you have read in google is correct. I have not written this software but I had a close look at it cause I did some private extensions for me. I can assure you that Mstrens (who wrote the code) was well aware of the points you found in google. there are three I2C addresses on the GY-86 ...

Hello I've ordered a GY-86 do do some testing. I got it working. I've attached oXs_config_basic.h and oXs_config_advanced.h (derived from master version) The files are configured to work for Frsky S.port protocol. The sensor will show : ACCX (PITCH), ACCY (ROLL), ACCZ (YAW), vsped, vario It should w...

Hi
I do use about seven different OXS sensors with Access (GPS, MU-6050, MS5611, GY86(clone) and a RPM(gas-ignition)).
I didn't find any problems concerning Access.

Hello Willi
I wrote you I private message.
Please read it. If you send me your email address (as private message) I will send you some code for better analyse.
regards Chris

Hello Your I2c addresses look fine. I've looked at the oXs_config_basic file. At the moment there is FIRST_BARO_SENSOR_USE MS5611. Could you now try FIRST_BARO_SENSOR_USE GY86 again . (with rev >1 and MPU YES). I myself have never tried BARO_AND_IMU and PPM. I would recommend to start with a simple ...

HI It just crossed my mind that with my GY87 there was also an other problem. The chip for the magnetic sensor HMC5883 is no longer produced by Honneywell. So my GY87 had a QMC5883 instead which needed a modified software (I wrote myself). If you use I2C-Scanner the address of the HMC5883 is (0x1E) ...

Hello Could be the same problem. I dont't know how familiar you are with programming in arduino. The way i did it: made a copy of the two files inv_mpu.c and oXs_imu.cpp to have the original files as a backup opened the file inv_mpu.c looked for the routine: int mpu_init() I changed the return value...

Hello Short feedback. I have made my first testflight wie my software extensions. It is looking promissing. Artifical horizon is working in "Telemtry viewer APP" and in "INAV Lua Script". I've added the following telemetry values (calculated in OpenXsensor): distance, pitch, roll...

Hello I did two version: The first own was to connect a Frsky brushless sensor. To avoid any noise from the ignition I separated by opto coppler. See first plan attached. In the second version I replaced the Frsky sensor by an openXsensor where I had the problem with unrealistic rpm values, till I f...

Hello First step is to uncomment this line in the oXs_config_advanced.h file //#define GENERATE_MAG_CALIBRATION_DATA // uncomment this line when HMC5883 calibration has to be performed. Then you get in the serial monitor something like this. 1815 5760 -4107 1665 5720 -4082 1672 5740 -4112 1712 5665 ...

Hello I have made a RPM sensor for my gas engine and found a similar issue. I used the signal of the tacho interface (RCexcl) with an optocoppler etc. The input pin 8 is used as a Schmitt Trigger. There is the need of a pull down resistor to make sure that the state of the pin is going from high to ...

Hello I'm not sure but you could have the same problem that I had with a GY-87 (which was in fact a HW-290, but with a original MPU-6050) In my case the problem was the this: In routine inv_mpu.c there is a check for a hard-/firmware revision of the MPU-6050. When the software was written, there whe...

Problem solved, got some help
regards Chris

I put a description of my solution in the following post

Hello
do you still need support?
I've just done the procedure and think I could help.
(did found a easy to use software/code to)

Hello I'd like to calibrate my compass (it's a QMC5883l on a HW-290 (GQ-87 clone)). Software is already up and running. But the Link in the openXsensor description for the calibration tool does not work any more. (http://www.physi.cz/hmc5883l-magnetometer-calibration.html) Is there someone who has a...
