The sounds are exactly the same on sky9x and Taranis yes!

maths.cpp contains gps routines like 'extractLatitudeLongitude()', getGpsDistance()' ...
should they also use the nogps compile switch or is this already covered by the 'FRSKY_HUB' compile switch?

You are right, but as these functions should never be called, they should be removed automatically by the linker. If I am wrong, please tell-me!

I'll never be able to tell you something like that :P
I just recognized that (gps) while I'm searching for the place where the xVario sounds (for the beeper) are selected and created

I'm fighting with (against) C++ and most of what I can do is copy and past. :(

Just try to surround the function with #if 0 ... #endif to check!

I've updated my Turnigy 9XR with this version. When I move the stick flashes the LCD screen is a normal thing? Before he did not, I have to change some settings to avoid this annoying flash? Seems to do especially when the sticks through the center.
thanks for your help

I do not know where it is but I have this setting configured with the backligth:
Mode = ON
Duration = 0s
Alarm = Yes

If Alarm is No everything works fine and the backlight does not blink when the stick through the center.
thanks

Center beep is in the model settings.
It is treated as an "alarm" so if you have Alarm=Yes then when a control that has center beep enabled goes through center the backlight will flash.

OK, I think I have understand. In the Model Settings I selected S-warning (0TREAG) and CTR Beep RETA123 I leave and I have to put selected Alarm = NO? is that correct?

It depends if you actually want center beep or not :)

If you don't care about center beep then just disable it (unselect all of the RETA123).

uncheck the "Alarm" to switch off that an alarm (like Center Beep) flashes the backlight

Hey Guys,

How do I get MavLink working? I want to get telemetry data from my APM. Already setup with 3dr radio inside 9x and THR and AIL rerouted. I can get the switches working with frsky/ardupilot builds.

The "ardupilot" build seems to be the non-mavlink deprecated one.

Can someone point me in the correct direction :)
