bump... can anyone help me out with this?

I need help figuring out how to setup the following... I just installed a 6-position switch in my taranis for controlling APM/pixhawk flight modes. What I'd like to do is setup the 6-pos switch so that there's a 1-2 second delay before the final channel value is sent to the output mix. So, I want to...

@s_mack,
so, what's the status on getting a batch of upgraded 9xt boards made?
I'd be willing to order two for my two old 9x's.

Maybe not for the Atmega128, but for the atmega8, 88, 328,168, etc ;) :) The same that USBASP uses. I think you already know it :) João So, could this be a real possibility, or is it just too complicated & resource-heavy to implement on the '128? The confusion of the SPI pins is due to the 'nor...

reviving this thread. I've been out of the loop for a while. I've got a couple of modded 9x's with M128 chips. I like the idea of loading a bootloader & flashing over USB via an FTDI adapter. I've got a few questions... - where can I find more info on loading the latest version of the bootloader...

hi, I'm about to attempt the gimbal upgrade on a stock T9x. quick questions... I ordered my taranis gimbals from alofthobbies a couple months ago, just opened them up, and it appears that I got the no-amp versions. So, since my gimbals don't have amps, is the recommendation to simply solder the pot ...

you were spot-on Mike, the 1K resistor on the PPM signal line fixed it! I got rid of the cap as well, and tried plugging&unplugging multiple times while the radio was on and it didn't crash. While I was in there, I went ahead and did the digital/analog ground fix for the H-trims (not sure if thi...

Thanks Mike. Ok, I'll try that out as soon as I get a chance. So, a couple of quick questions: - could this issue be similar in nature to the trim freeze problem caused by the incorrect (analog) grounding of the trim switches? IOW, am I using the wrong ground connection for the HT connection? - shou...

I dont have the exact version number right now, but it was the latest test version for the 128 as of Dec 15, 2014.

I'm not using the jack. I have a servo extension plug that's wired to the back PCB in the 9x, just as in that photo that I posted. Here's a picture of my setup: 20150128_015106.jpg In that pic, I added a cap thinking that the ATMega was browning out due to the voltage drop from the HT tracker cable....

I just setup a DIY Headtracker per this article: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1677559 I've got the HT setup & working with er9x for the most part. The only problem I'm experiencing is that plugging&unplugging the HT cable while the radio is powered on will cause it to cras...

A few of the case screws on my 9x are pretty much stripped and failing to hold. I've tried a few different things in order to get them to stick & hold the screws, such as melting some hotglue into the screw holes, and trying to shove some liquid tape in there as well. These quick-fixes haven't w...

is this the right place to make feature requests (vs. opening up new threads)??? I have a feature request for some kind of 'quick calibration' feature... - On my 9x, the sticks tend to drift a slight bit at the center with usage, even after running a full calibration. I'm thinking that it would be c...

ok, sorry about that, now I understand...
thanks

here's a video showing the problem.

Could it be that there's a bug in the latest M128 version?

Thanks Mike, FYI, I ended up loading the latest version available for the 128 via eePe, and I'm seeing the same mixing behavior in that version. I tried implementing the same simple mix that I posted above, and it didn't work; the channel values would go to zero whenever the switched 'replace' mix w...

I just loaded the latest 128 FrSKY version via eePe, er9x-r814 V1.395-Mike 16.11.2014 23:20:23 FRKSY 128 ..and beep center, "Beep Cnt", appears to be broken. I can only enable it for the first three sticks on the list, "RET," but "A123" are unavailable. I can't scroll o...

Hey mike, A while back, I installed the dev/test version that you mentioned above on a separate test radio. er9x-r814 V1.118-Mike 21.10.2014 16:22:30 FRSKY 128 I was going to use this setup in conjunction with some progressive mixes that you had recommended for controlling a pan-tilt gimbal via the ...

In er9x you have 5 point and 9 point curves. where did you get the 4 point from?? ;) :) João I'd guess 4 points either side of 0. The biggest problem is finding the space in the mix data structure to store the parameter(s) needed for an expo function, I'll give it some thought! Mike. yeah, sorry, m...

Ok, so is there a way to setup a separate expo curve from the global expo settings? I tried messing eith thr custom curves, but they only allow for rough, four-point linear "curves". Would it require too many resources to allow for a real expo function for the custom curves?

I've just added an option in the mixes of er9x to ignore any expo or dual rates that is set. Test version posted here: http://openrcforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4598 . I made space by removing a redundant option of FmodeTrim. This was put in a long time ago and since then flight modes h...

First of all it would be helpful to tell us which TX and firmware you use. (Sorry, saw too late that u use er9x ;) ) EXPO/DR is related to the sticks; just before the mixer. I would skip the global EXPO/DR. In ersky9x and er9x e.g. you can either select a curve or differential in every single line ...

I'm not sure why you are using CH1 as the input to CH9, rather than the AIL stick directly. What I can do (probably), is add an option to disable the use of EXPO and DR on a particular mix, so you would use the RAW stick value. Mike. oops, my mistake... that's what I should of mentioned; I'm using ...

I'm playing with setting up pan/tilt control of an FPV gimbal via a switch and the AIL/ELE stick. I've got mixes setup to copy the AIL and ELE channel values over to the output channels for the gimbal pan & tilt servos. I have around 30% expo on the AIL and ELE channels, which I'm assuming gets ...

Thanks Mike, so, technically, how does that work? Will the 'redundant' replace mixes grab the last values and make it stick before the toggle kicks in and shifts the input to the channel(s)? the progressive panning thing sounds cool. any idea where on the forum I might be able to find that? what sho...

I need help with following... I'm currently controlling the pan&tilt servos for the FPV cam on my Bixler1 (on channels 7&8 respectively) via the AIL & ELE sticks + TRN switch... i.e., holding down &activating the TRN toggle switch causes the outputs from those sticks to be sent to CH...

I'm wondering if anyone has ever tried to replace the plastic screen on the 9x? not the LCD, the actual plastic screen that's adhered to the front of the 9x and which protects the LCD itself. Are these screens available from some source, or can they be easily DIY fabricated somehow?

I'm trying to figure out if the following is possible: I'd like to find a simple way to create custom multi-channel mixes that are tied to specific switches or switch combos and that produce specific output values for each channel. Basically, I'd like to get a full range of options for controlling t...

I think I may have found a bug/hardware incompatibility... I have one of the 'newer' 9x radios, with the darker grey/black shell color. I purchased it a few months back, with the 'no tx module/black rubber cap on the antenna hole' option. On this version, the P3 / 'AUX2' pot is 'reversed' in the sen...

OK, a small bug in er9x. The telemetry screen that shows the RSSI values in double size uses the wrong value to display the Tx RSSI. If you look on the other telemetry displays (RIGHT/LEFT) you will see the Tx RSSI value does go to 0 on loss of telemetry. A custom switch: v<ofs TSSI 10 does get set...
