-Prologue
I recently upgraded my already moded TGY9x with the 9xtreme board from smartieparts (i had the prevoius smartieparts board) and installed th FrSky DJT tellemetry Module and swapped all my recievers to the D4R-II with 27ms cppm fw.
As for firmware on the 9x I'm using the ERSky9x that comes with the 9xtreme board.
Everything on the bench works like a charm, I even use the control to play HotProps and FreeRider without a problem.
-The Issue
Range of FrSky (and rssi value): the range on the FrSky module seems oddly inconsistent, hence I have not flown more than ~150m. right next to the RX, i get a signal value (displayed on the 9x) of 100 (wich i'm only guessing it's a percentage and not the real value as this should be negative and closer to zero).
If i move ~10m away, signal drops to 75; at 50m signal drops to 50 and the 9x looses telemetry comunication (9x screaming "no telem") BUT i can still arm/disarm the quad and navigate the osd menus without a glitch.
If i go to 100m, signal drops to about 30, still I have signal for controling the quad and the 9x screams " no tlemetry"
These tests were performed on an open field.
Here is what happends when flying: flights always performed in open area; quad responds perfect to stick inputs, but, at any range, it enteres (i believe) in failsafe and floats gracefully down to earth (props spin at a very low, stable rpm) and completely ignores my throttle inputs yet I can control yaw, roll and pitch. Once the quad hits ground, I can arm and fly again.
Go figure.
