Programmers forum deleted

Post by rperkins »

I was subscribed to the programmers forum to support all forum members with their programming problems. Now it seems that forum is gone.
http://opentxforums.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=10

which forum should programming related issues be discussed.? I have a link on 9xrprogrammer.com that sends people to the appropriate place to ask questions

thanks

In the new scheme we were supposed to have a programmers subforum in the 9x radio. I see Rob put Smartie PArts only there, and moved most programmer (hardware)-related threads to the General help (software) section... probably made some mistakes...
Having an SP section isn't a bad thing per se, but should be a subforum of the Programmers one.

Will try reorganizing that, but didn't really need that just now...

no hurry. Just let me know where it ends up and I will update the link on my page and subscribe the sub-forum to help all forum members with their programming related issues.

So how did this shake out ?
Is there a/going_to_be sub-forum for programming issues with the 9x/9xr ?
I'd like to narrow my focus a little further than subscribing to the general hardware forum.
thanks

There are a number of sections for this that can all be found in this section.


OPEN RADIO CONTROL TRANSMITTER FIRMWARES

General Model Setup Questions - for all generic questions and I guess legacy posts.

Each firmware then section has it's own sub forum for specific firmware programming help.

e.g. er9x model setup - found in the er9x firmware section.

If you expand all the OPEN RADIO CONTROL TRANSMITTER FIRMWARES section on the root board - it should all make sense!
Slope Soaring, FPV, and pretty much anything 'high tech'
...........if you think it should be in the wiki.. ask me for wiki access, then go add it!

Umm.... Nothing is clear to me with regard to the prorammer section. I cannot find it so I assume that it doesn't exist. Of course I might have missed it in my search.

Shame if it has gone as it had a lot of valuable information and as we know, a huge number of problems are related to the programmers.

May I suggest that at the very least that we have a sub forum to the 'General help (hardware)' forum.

I have to say that the recent changes have IMO made it difficult to navigate around. As a previous poster mentioned. We fo seem to have a lack of focus with many of the forums. Of course that may be intentional, but it doesn't help you finding out what you need to know or where to put a post sometimes.

Other than that.. Good work Rob. :)

Looking at recent changes, I think Rob just has too much time on his hand. I think we should put him back on the developer's list (as he once were), so he can fool around with programing more. :mrgreen:

I did a search on my posts that I knew were made in the programmers forum. I found them and the threads they were on in the General help (software) section, which is a sub of 'General help and information' although it isn't shown as a sub like others are like the Smartie sub forum.

Just a suggestion. How about changing the name of the General help (software) section to 'Programmers' before it gets covered in general stuff, then make that a sub forum that you can see on the front page.

That forum should now be moved to be a subsection of "Transmitter Hardware" > "FlySky TH9X / Turnigy 9X / Eurgle 9X radio" (with the smartieparts programmer one inside), and a new General Help (Software) created where it was!

I can do it, but not before tomorrow...

Right.. the new forum for Flysky9X style radio/programmers is here:

http://openrcforums.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=109

You will note that what we are trying to do here is to get all 9X programmer issues in one place.

Essentially, a different section per radio type!
