Hi mstrens,

Just checked the manual of my TX and I would revise priority. VARIO protocol and GPS would be perfect for my purposes. Then I could build pure a pure vario or a pure GPS sensor which could be combined with a GAM attached to the ESC.

Best regards,

Hi mstrens, For me the most important protocol would be the ESC. The idea behind is to build a “telemetry ESC” by attaching an openXsensor to a normal ESC as standard equipment of my planes and attach a separate GAM openXsensor with additional functionality (like vario or GPS) The ESC protocol shoul...

Hi, I’m using several openXsensors in various planes and I’m very happy and satisfied. Unfortunately the Graupner HoTT TXs are not so flexible regarding the display of the telemetry values as others like Open TX. The display screens depend on the type of sensor (GAM EAM, ESC, GPS and so on) Therefor...

Hi Roland,

Thanks for this link. Meanwhile I tried to use the orange RPM sensor from Hobbyking. Actually it is working very well and the price is so low the DIY makes not really sense for me.

I just tested the new functionality and it works perfect! Temperature is visible in the HOTT temperature field.
Many thanks for that fantastic support and sorry for the late feedback but I killed my Uno a week ago and had to wait for the new one to test.

Best regards

Wow that was really fast!
I'm at the moment on a business trip but will try next weekend when I'm back home.

Thanks mstrens!

Hello, I built a OpenXSensor with an voltage and current sensor which works perfectly on my HOTT GR-12L receiver. I would like to add a temperature sensor for my ESC as well. To connect the sensor to an analog input is no issue but in the HOTT section of the config.h I cannot assign one of the field...

I'm very interessted in a RPM sensor for the oXs but it is quite hard to find information on that. Is the rpm sensor above working? It would be perfect to have a wiring diagram which is working as a summary of all the trials and a short description how to connect and setup the oXs.

Thanks,
Thomas

Hi Roland,
I would like to use a RPM sensor for brushless motors with my OXS for Hott, too. Could you give me some Information which sensor you used and how you connected it to the motor and the sensor?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas
