Yes this is excellent for being able to make -anything- with the trims, it's extremely flexible, no doubt, however I'm wondering it that doesn't go too far maybe. How many people want to trim something that is not a stick and needs adjustment on every flight? I don't see the use case there to be hon...

For those interested I post an example how I solved my cross-trim problem temporarily. I'm still looking through the code to see if, with the same config, the trim bars could be displayed on the other side of the screen but I looks quite complex as the trim bars seem associated with their trim butto...

I found this piece of code in view_main.cpp void drawTrims(uint8_t flightMode) { for (uint8_t i=0; i<4; i++) { [...] if(getRawTrimValue(flightMode, i).mode == TRIM_MODE_NONE) continue; which explains at least why a trim bar is not displayed for a certain flight mode when the "trim disabled"...

Hello, I just maiden a boosted funjet plane and now that I start flying quite fast planes, I realise that I cannot afford to remove a finger from the stick to reach the trim button. And that's why crosstrim is there I believe, so I tried to implement it. However, I have a few issues with this (I'm r...

Thanks rcdiy, just missed your post, it looks there are so many files in so many places...

I just created an alternative pack in English based on the "Amber" voice pack from 2.1. It still has a bit of original Taranis voices and a bit of 2.2 American voice for those sounds that do not exist in the original Amber pack. It also contains a few additional sounds that I use in my pla...

ok now I understand. I was indeed complementing the official "English" voice pack with one called "English - Amber" that was made available for 2.1. I actually never tried the American voice pack, and I believe that's the one provided in the voice pack 2.2 as "en". That...

Hi I downloaded this file: http://downloads.open-tx.org/2.2/nightly/sdcard/sdcard-taranis-x9-2.2V0008.zip and I can guarantee that this is not the same result on the Taranis X9D (not the Plus version, but the old version). In 2.1 voice was crisp and high. In 2.2 voice is low tone and saturated. I've...

Hi all, I just moved to OpenTX 2.2 night builds and went to the field to test a new plane. On my Taranis (oldest model) the new sounds (tried v0008 in English and French) are just like noise. It is in no way understandable as were the old sound packs (all up to 2.1). I liked the original voice pack,...

Best option is to open a ticket in the OpenTX GitHub space!

Hi guys, here is my latest version of a generic 14-channels template (was 12 channels before). All old and new features are explained in details in the attached manual. What's added: - petrol engine start mode with custom throttle position for ignition and glow plug control on SB up position in take...

Hi, Before I was flying with these small alarms that you plug to the balancer plug of your lipo :oops: The day it was triggered at mid-flight because one cell of my lipo was taking more drain that the others, I bought a FLVSS and I discovered a lot more that I thought about voltage in flight. Now I ...

If you cannot bind a recent "EU" X8R receiver in D16 mode to your Taranis, this means the Taranis is still with the older, "non-EU" 1.7.1 tx firmware. I have an older Taranis (first model) and I don't want to reflash all receivers, so I only flash the new receivers that I would b...

Hi,

my splash screen from zoom on a Rafale.
Cheers,

Hi, fantastic job! Just read quickly throught the docs and found a small issue in section 1 page 19. Actually I discovered and used the MAX function in "inputs", and I also confirm that CH1-32 are available in the "mixes". It's really a detail as compared to the sum of infos ther...

https://github.com/opentx/opentx/wiki/Taranis-Bootloaders Yes, indeed this is all there and very well explained. For some reasons, even knowing what I was looking for, I still find it difficult to grasp what is the main way to do things. Like, the SD method of updating the bootloader seems a plan &...

That's good news for the community!! Thanks for the effort. Not sure if I can help with this, but I have the feeling that the manual that I produced for my 12CH template may be a sort of complement to your documentation. I published everything in "openTX -> Generic 12CH template" topic. I ...

Here is another concrete example of how I used the template to setup a more complex EDF jet. Model: Ready2fly Venom Swiss Red Receiver: X8R with its 8-physical channels on CH9-16 config and S.Bus for CH1-16 (see how channels mixes have just been moved up/down, easy!) Gyro: HobbyEagle A3 Super II wit...

Here is a concrete example of how I used the template to setup a simple aerobatics plane. Model: Edge 540 from HK (1500mm) Receiver: X8R in 8-physical channels only mode Gyro: Hobbyeagle A3 Super II with S.Bus connection (channel via S.Bus are tagged "SB" in "outputs" screen) Gyr...

Thanks Mike, that's a procedure I did not read anywhere else before! I indeed always ended up upgrading the firmware from within the bootloader, either from the SD card or from Companion... I just tried it and yes indeed, from the SD card browser I got the option to update the bootloader from the fi...

OK that's what I figured out but how do I know if it needs to? It seems to me that I saw some Taranis pictures with a bootloader in the 2.1.x range. Is this possible and how do I check for that? Companion does not show this or I missed the place to read that.

Hi there, I am puzzled, upgrade after upgrade, that I upgrade the firmware of my radio with the latest firmware version while the bootloader version stagnates way behind. I run firmware 2.1.8 while my bootloader runs a 2.0.15 version (from memory, not 100% sure). I tried several ways of pushing the ...

If your custom sensor is called "lowc" I suppose you just have to add a special function like "play value" "lowc" ? I play the value of lipo consumption from VFAS this way, so it should also work for FLVSS.

I am very proud and happy to publish V2 of my generic template model, which brings quite some improvements over my initial template. This time I publish an .eepe file with the template and also with use case examples for 4CH, 6CH and 8CH plane configs. I also attach the sound files I use (English) a...

Hi all, when searching the forum I could only bump into the issues that was found in 2.0.15 and fixed on 2.0.16 regarding faulty minute call. However, since around that period, the minute call still says for example "two point zero" instead of "two minutes". I updated the voice p...

Just posted a fix for that also in Github.

OK, sure! Thanks

Hi, I am not sure if this is possible, but I'm using the vfas sensor and would like to be alerted by a voice message everytime I have consumed, say, 1000mAh of battery capacity (or any other value that would be a divider). How would I do that with firmware 2.1.8, please? Many thanks in advance ! B.

It is exact that I was confusing "instant trim", that I never used, and "trims->subtrim" function, that I wanted to use with a model with swash mix, and did not work. I tried it with a 1.x firmware, and never tried it again since 2.0. Is there any change in this respect ? If yes ...

Hi, just bumped into this bug in Companion 2.1.8: 1. Create a mix with a GV as weight (not sure if this is relevant for reproducing the bug), say GV3, and another GV as a "diff" curve, say GV5. 2. Save the model. 3. Reopen the mix, and change "diff" by "expo". GV settin...
