Re: Adding MAVLINK support

You need to match the telemetry signal polarity of the 'PRO and the Multi module. Either flash the Multi module with "INVERT_TELEMETRY" set, of set "Invert COM1" on in the radio. With the 'PRO, the latter is best as the 'PRO includes a programmable hardware inverter on the COM1 ...

Re: Adding MAVLINK support

The X8R should be sending RSSI and receiver voltage even if the APM is not working. Do you see these? Make sure on the telemetry menu you have A1 set to 13.2V so it reads something other than 0. Mike. I don't see RSSI or receiver voltage - all zeroes. I guess this points the finger towards either t...

Re: Adding MAVLINK support

So I got everything hooked up, but I'm not getting any data on the telemetry screens. The LED on the Arduino blinks slowly - does this mean anything? I'm pretty certain that the wiring is correct (APM TX->Arduino RX, etc.), but I'm less certain that the configuration of the APM in Mission Planner is...

Re: Adding MAVLINK support

Received my Arduino Pro Mini today. Got it programmed and wired, ready to go when I get my receiver. Thought a few pics might be useful for the next person. I used a standard servo connector for the S-Port side, and a 5-pin micro JST for the APM side (wired for the telemetry port on my CX-20 FC). Ho...

Re: New version of eePskye for erSky9x r219?

Looks good to me. Thanks so much - I'm blown away by the speed you turned that around. My day job is in IT, and we have paid-for software that doesn't get support this good. How does one send you beer money?

Re: Adding MAVLINK support

OK. For the price of the Arduino Pro Mini your code seems worth trying :) As I've already got the Teensy I can try both and compare. Am I right in assuming I'll most likely get richer data from your code? Do you power the Arduino from the Sport on the Rx or the APM? I'm assuming it doesn't really ma...

Re: New version of eePskye for erSky9x r219?

OK, I did a bit more testing - the problem only occurs when setting Autobind to Yes. If I read a model with Bayang protocol and autobind enabled the subprotocol is blank. Likewise, if I create a model and choose Bayang and autobind, close the model and go back in the subprotocol is blank. This seems...

Re: Adding MAVLINK support

I have a 9XR Pro, and an X8R receiver and DIY multi-protocol module on their way. I'm planning to put this in an APM-equipped Cheerson CX-20 running AC 3.2.1. Until I read this thread I had planned to use the a Tennsy 3.2 with the code from this project to do MAVlink -> FrSky telemetry conversion. I...

Re: New version of eePskye for erSky9x r219?

It is better, but still not quite right. The model configured for FrSkyX works as expected, but the Bayang model is still blank when read from the Tx. If I set it to Bayang and write the EEPROM everything is fine when checked on the Tx.

Re: New version of eePskye for erSky9x r219?

Posted! Mike. Thanks for the quick response! The flight mode shows up perfectly, but there's something weird happening with the multi-protocol protocol settings... I have two models, one configured for FrSkyX CH_16, the other configured for Bayang. Both are fully configured in the Tx menu. If I rea...

New version of eePskye for erSky9x r219?

Is there a version of eePskye which supports the updates in the latest ersky9xr builds, specifically the new protocol options for the multi-protocol module? I'm trying to set my models up in eePskye but every time I write the memory back to the Tx I have to modify the protocol settings on the Tx bec...
