R61: On the STATS screen all the timers stop at 10:55.

I think, but I'm not 100% sure, that the GPS reports in feet. I was going to hook this one to my computer but
since I really couldn't afford to replace it I never hooked it up to my PC.

Now for the new switch options I set CH9 to A--SW4--siren. I then set SW4 v>ofs--Galt--406. So if my GPS reads over 406 ft. I should get a siren alarm.

Also because I set it as "A" CH9 is not affected by this and so really I could set this up on an active channel.

Is this correct?

Just to let you know r60 still shows as r59 however the new switch options are there. I have a question but I'll post in the questions category.

Any word on this? I am reduced to walking around with the plane to test the gear deployment based on my GPS data, I hit 1 MPH and the gear retracts, I stop and the gear comes down.

I have no way of checking my manual over ride gear switch.

Ah...kinda thought so on the CPU test.

I just tried to put in a new splash screen using Companion9X. It doesn't give me the option to do so when I select r59 however when I chose r57 it give me the option.

Is there a different way of doing it now?

New revision committed (r59). Summary of changes: While no telemetry data is being received, the TX RSSI value is set to 0. This may be used as a test in the custom switches to override other tests for example. The splash screen now includes the SKY text in the image so it won't upset custom splash...

CPU at 68 F room temp, Turn it on and it says -7.

1 minute = -2

5 minutes = 2

10 minutes = 4

OK...I start walking and the gear retracts in about 4- to 5 seconds, once I set the plane back in it's cradle it takes 4 to 5 seconds for the gear to come back down.

[/quote] Please, what fw are you using and r#? Have you tested the Vario/altimeter for correct height and display # Imp or Met? How fast is the gps update time I wonder? We have a freeway that can never be flown over at one corner of our field. I'm thinking the gps alarm could be set to alarm as a w...

So with the new release, I can set SW2 to be v<ofs/Gspd/30. I can then set my flaps and or gear to deploy when my GPS data is less then 30MPH? Is this correct? I just did a simple test. I have a normal gear switch for manual operation and I have another switch to enable the gear to deploy and retra...

Am I correct that the Imperial version uses knots for the speed? (I just tested it and that seems to be the case) If so, why not use MPH? Is MPH an aeronautical speed ? either is KNOTS or Km/h.... I never saw a real airplane with MPH.... (maybe can be useful you drive cars) Yes it is. Sort of... Al...

Correct Bertrand. Obviously the capabilties of the Ersky board are entensive so we can only wait and see what comes from it. However Open9X can run on the Ersky board now and has the telemetry triggered events. To have some fields so we can fill in variables for telemetry, we can then simulate what ...

There is a request for telemetry be a control input on the Ersky FW. I see that open 9X already has this and so I tried it on Companion 9X and I could see it works. I set up a simple switch to activate a channel when speed is below 30 mph. Can you provide an area that we can input whatever we want a...

I tested it in 9X Companion and indeed it works.

I like that. When my plane slows down to 30 mph, the flaps deploy. Thats pretty cool really.

The motor just acts as it should if you have it set for say a short beep, level 5, but I have haptic turned off. Now today I finally had the opportunity to use the buddy box system. It took a little while to get both radio's sync'd however once I did it was fine, ersky as the instructor and stock bo...

You're correct mike. It shows MPH on the telemetry screen. It just does't change on the selection screen.

Also the vibrating motor activates when I turn on the radio even though I do not have haptic selected for anything and have strength set to 0.

In r56, when frhub is selected metric is the only option available. When WSHh1 is selected only imperial is available.

Options to select IMP or MET are no longer available.

I've seen it a few times pretty much from the start however I figured I'd let Mike go thru the code a after some bugs were found but the #1 timer disappears from the screen after I reset it a few times, it is not present on any screen. I hit the exit button to reset it and it disappears. It happened...

I had an alrm going off in my radio this morning. It was driving my nuts...it was the mah used alarm.

Oh, I had someone posting a nice comment about er9x on one of my tricopter videos on you tube. This one about the strobe light. And here is the comment :D :D "I took my er9x and bashed it with aluminum bat over and over bigest mistame i ever did was changing it to er9x after i flashed it the ...

Awsome...just filled up all 16 models in my radio....need more, 24 would be nice...heck, make it an even 30.

I didn't write it back to my radio because I didn't want to have to re write them if it didn't work.

Companion9x version 0.53 should now be able to read / write ersky9x EEPROMs ! I have removed "available size" displayed, the number was too big ;) Bertrand. That is very nice Bertrand....what a nice Companion :) I think the coolest thing right now is seeing all the power of this board com...

Thats the one I DL'd...I'll tripple check it. BRB

Just DL'd it again and checked it and it has no reference to the 3s4 board.

I'll be back on in while...need to go to the LHS.

Here's the ZIP. Here's the TCL file thats in it.

I looked thru the at91sam3s4-9x.tcl file and there is no reference to at91sam3s4-9x, only at91sam3s2-9x. I'm not sure how others are able to select the Ersky board however I have to select at91sam3s4-ek in Samba in order for it to work. I'll hang back on the Companion program till I see that it's so...

I unzipped the "tcl_lib.zip" into Sam-ba, it created the proper directories when I first installed Sam-ba.

Here is the configuration screen shot.
Here is the eeprom error screen shot. Here is the preferences screen shot.
