Telemetry settings on Taranis 2.1.8 firmware

I'm having great difficulty getting telemetry using a Craft and Theory cable and SPort on an X8R and Serial4 on the Pixhawk. No sensors can be found. I noticed on one of the forums that somebody mentioned the need to set the mode for telemetry type ( FrSky Sbus), with a screen shot. My telemetry pag...

Re: Frsky DJT and D8R-II Plus Issues

I've just flashed my D8R-ll with the XP firmware, so that I have CPPM and RRSI out put from the receiver. Jumped CH 3&4 and connected CH 1 to the X2 input on the Naza M Lite. Interesting that the flight modes are now on CH 7 for the 3 pos switch and the U(5) channel seems to be free...? I manage...

Re: Frsky DJT and D8R-II Plus Issues

I flew my 550 quad on a wind free day in an area of Cape Town in which there were lots of electric security fences (Paradise?) The machine is normally rock solid in GPS mode (Naza M Lite, D8R-ll, DJT module) but on this occasion the thing kept wanting to yaw in an anticlockwise direction forcing alt...

Re: Frsky DJT and D8R-II Plus Issues

Almost certainly not. If it worked with one receiver it should work with the other. Are you sure you have the switches on the DJT set correctly for a D-mode receiver? By the way...Sorry to come back so late. I found out from some of the more experienced local groups that in Cape Town, the GPS needs...

Re: RPM sensor

Hi All I bought a cheap HK controller with GPS, to fit to an equally cheap quad.....first tried it with EMax 20A ESCs and it worked fine. Then tried it with Hobby-Wing Skywalker 20A ESC, and then a Hobby wing Quatro ESC... Didn't like either. Got incessant fast beeps after start up, as though the th...

Re: Frsky DJT and D8R-II Plus Issues

Thanks for that.... Very informative and just what I needed to know. Now...I have a small quad (550). I had installed a V8FR-II on it with a Naza M lite and everything worked fine, GPS mode , RTH. I then tried the D8R-II and found that the thing squirmed around a circular path in GPS mode and very e...

Re: Frsky DJT and D8R-II Plus Issues

Hi Everybody... I would be very grateful if somebody could explain how to obtain telemetry from the D8R-II plus and the DJT module, and what modifications would be needed to do so, if at all. The function of the side connectors on the D8R-II plus is a mystery, exacerbated by all the acronyms that pe...

Re: Turnigy open9x & Dji naza configuration

The Naza M lite ....
Do the Basic gain settings under 'autopilot' relate only to flying in Manual mode? Or do they affect every mode?
And do the Attitude gains likewise only relate to flying in Attitude/GPS mode?
Any direction would be appreciated...(especially up!)
Thanks. DP

open9x with Frsky DJT module

Can somebody please explain to this stupid person whether the substitution of the original 9X module with the DJT module automatically enables telemetry if the open9x Frsky firmware is flashed to the transmitter? Presumably the jumper has to be fitted to enable the D mode too? Or are other physical ...
