So Rob, What you want is the RSSI value displayed through some kind of OSD. You are using the receiver in normal mode PWM outputs on all channels, not the PPMsum and RSSI output. What you want is to transmit the RSSI value from the Tx to the Rx on an unused channel. My first thought for doing this w...

The nano QX uses a momentary switch to select between safe and acro modes. So I put mine on the trainer switch.

Sure, just save your settings to a file. And then you can upload it here. There is a section specifically just for templates, it would be best to put it in there.

There is a helicopter section in the templates forum here. There are plenty of setups there for whatever you need. Flybarless basically sets up like an airplane. What do you find so difficult when setting it up on er9x? I fly helis the most, so Mike if you have any questions you can shoot them my wa...

On a side note about fail safe: the best setup for a helicopter is to cut the motor, stop piroing, and go to zero pitch. Zero pitch because you don't know what orientation it will be in when the link loss occurs, so it will at least stop pushing the heli around.

The attiny45 and 85 lack a hardware input capture that the code is using. So it seems that is out as an option .

Is the mod for the 9XR on the wiki somewhere? This is the kind of thing the wiki was meant for.

Mike b had set up a mix once, which was then used to turn on a timer. This have the person a timer that counted down with a rate proportional to the throttle stick position. I'm only on my phone, so I can't do the search. It should be in here somewhere.

MikeB wrote: The '128 version of er9x does include some small additions, like when you are editing a field that wants a switch set, you can just move the required switch to set it.

When did you add that?!

Ok just point me to what a packet looks like, I should be able to put it in. Will the module transmit both Normal packets and S.Port packets at the same time? Or does it do one or the other?

Put the 1k resistors on the trim switch board. Flaps30 explains it in a post on that thread.

Showmaster,
You do have custom switches that you could set to activate above or below a point on the slider. Then just use the custom switch in the trainer menu.

It is still possible that reboots occur with the m64 chip. Really they should occur the same as with other processors. Testing just shows that it doesn't happen, at least not as much. Still a good idea to do the mod anyway, then you know the possibility is gone.

If I remember correctly the trim is only changed when the switch it turned on. So you don't need a momentary switch. So you can use the THR switch instead if you like. I just simulated this through companion, and it works like I said. Trim changes when the switch is turned on, insta trim is not reac...

Yes, the Rudder and aileron trims. And I actually meant the antenna in the plane. How that is oriented. So I know we are talking about the same receiver. It is the kind with a red shrink wrapped end?
-Gohst

Software wise I know the trims are solid and cause no noticable delay. At one point it did, but has since been fixed. Would more likely be the horizontal trim issue that Jhsa mentioned. The fix for that is covered in another thread on this forum. I still want to know about the antenna installation, ...

How is your antenna installed in your plane? It's it away from everything it possibly can be? Also like jhsa I'm interested in your range check. There is no range check mode in the stock module so you would have to walk quite a distance.

As you are reading the posts, you will see a "thumbs up" pic next to the quote button. Clicking that is how you thank a person for the post. That is what gets counted towards you total.

The 9x I use as a trainer works just fine, plugging in to a sky9x v3. -Gohst Specs of that radio: 9x with m128 processor Piezo speaker mod w/haptic (http://openrcforums.com/wiki/index.php/Speaker_Mod_with_Haptic_Feedback) Frsky DHT with switch to select internal or external module Smartieparts progr...

Bryan, go back to post #86 of this thread. Mike B points out that there is no digital ground for the horizontal trims. When one is switched this causes the voltage to ring from very high to very low. This seems to cause the reset. For unknown reasons the m64 is unaffected.

I have my pitch channel setup like this: +55% THR Switch(ID0) Curve(C4) +55% THR Switch(!ID0) The percent will depend on your particular setup, adjust it until you get the pitch that you want. I use curve C4 for the normal mode pitch. This one doesn't go to full negative pitch, only a couple of degr...

You didn't mention what tx/rx module you are using?? What you would need is a way to get the telemetry data to the computer. There are projects like this one which use bluetooth to get the telemetry data from an Frsky module into an Android phone. Maybe that will give you some ideas.
-Gohst

Showmaster, He installed a DHT, so that is the internal module. No dip switches, he simply has a toggle switch. Your DHT is working fine. In 1-way mode, binding, the module doesn't beep. In 2-way mode it does beep, about once per second. You will also notice that at power on, non-binding, in 2-way m...

Ok so see number 12 under the model setup screen. http://openrcforums.com/wiki/index.php/ ... tup_1.2F12 Do you have more than 8 channels outputting? The default is to output the first 8 channels.

Have you started by reading the manual? Available in a link to the right -->

-Gohst

second point should be -34. Other than that yes.
-Gohst

I don't have mine in front of me, but I think I see the problem.
In the volt ratio, that isn't 4:1 that is 4:1 for A1; and 1:1 for A2. Try setting the second number also to 4 and see if that works.

As the CPx is a flybarless helicopter make sure you don't use the heli mixers (CYCx). For a flybarless system you should use straight AIL, ELE, RUD.

Take the point on you 0-100 curve, multiply the value by 2, then subtract 100. For example 50 is the point on your 0-100 curve, you know this will end up at 0. So 50*2=100; 100-100 = 0.
-Gohst

blade / spektrum stuff uses about 80% of the range in er9x. So change all of your limits to +-80. Also in the PPM settings change the ppm delay to 400us, some people have found this helps with the channel centering.
