Thank's,
Just installed OpenTx 2.2 to my HORUS.
It's so nice, maybe I'll never go back to the original Frsky OS.

Great work by the team:)
Will this version give us the option to easily to a range check by using special functions and switches?
I like how quick and easy it is to do a range check on my Dx5e.

Thx kilrah. I just didn see the link omg.

Now im able to compile it for my self.

Just one thing pico2wave seems not to be available for Fedora 24. The Sound files are created under Ubuntu? Thats the only Distribution which has packets for pico2wav.

@Benjamin Boy.
The 64bit deb package OpenTX 2.2.0 RC6 (N358) is available here http://www.open-tx.org/2016/09/21/opentx-2.2.0RC6
Converted that deb package to rpm using alien. Installed under PCLinuxOS. No sweat ;)

Hi Kalle,
i can compile companion my self that is not my problem.
Im currently working at the german sound system. There is a bash script which creates the files for the sdcard. In this bash script python is used to create the csv sound file and the Sound files itself with pico2wav.
But under fedora i cannot find a package or the source code which gives me the command pico2wav.

Hi João,
i know this tool and i also use it under Windows. But i want to test the automatic creation process from the OpenTX Server. I need to check if the process which they use generates correct spoken files. Because of this i need the same tool 8-).

Im currently trying to build OpenTX 2.2 under Windows 10. I have installed Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition and followed this guidelines (https://github.com/opentx/opentx/wiki/O ... structions) to install the other needed software.
If i checkout next and use this command like described here (https://github.com/opentx/opentx/wiki/O ... structions):
cmake -G "Visual Studio 10" ../ -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=C:\Qt\Qt5.7.0\5.7\msvc2015
i get:

Code: Select all

-- The C compiler identification is unknown
-- The CXX compiler identification is unknown
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:1 (project):
  No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be found.

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "C:/Programs/opentx/companion/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
See also "C:/Programs/opentx/companion/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".
I then used this command:
cmake -G "Visual Studio 14" ../ -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=C:\Qt\Qt5.7.0\5.7\msvc2015
What should i do with these errors? "Could not find FOX", "Looking for pthread.h - not found"

So far i can open it in Visual Studio and compile it but that gives me tons of errors with:

Seems files under C:\Programs\msinttypes are not included especially "stdint.h". Firmware can be created without any problems!
Any help would be very nice.

To build 2.2 on windows 10 you need Visual Studio 2010 with C++ installed. I got the CMake running but building in Visual Studio still fails. I think the Wiki is wrong. For the firmware it is working perfect.

2.2 needs Visual Studio 15, VS10 is for previous versions. Forgot to separate the cases in the build instructions.

In preferences / application settings, you have to check the option to use nightly builds. Opentx 2.2 it is still experimental.

Hello,

maybe I found a little bug - or there is a problem within my Horus.
If I set the telemetry to "FrSky D(cable)" and reboot again, OpenTX stops with the message "emergency stop" (or something like this). Than it reboots and shows the same again and reboots and so on.
If there is a throttle- or switch-warning, this appears first without any problem, but when I fix it, it runs again in "emergency stop" - I beleve after fixing the warnings the serial port goes to be activated. Than I have to delete the model on SD card to make it boot again.

Maybe someone could test this in order to see if it is a problem of my Horus mainboard or a little bug on OpenTX. In case of a bug - nerver mind. I do not expect that it will be fixed as soon as possible, take your time. But otherwhise I have to send my Horus back...

This option doesn't apply to Horus, shouldn't be selectable.

It is a leftover, will be removed. This choice relates to connecting telemetry to the Futaba trainer port of the 9XR-Pro, this can only be done on this radio.

But the option exists in Taranis, too. How should I connect my Mlink-telemetry?! Is there any way to implement it?
