Slider adjustable timer

[Oldbuzzard]

Ive been playing about for a couple of weeks trying to figure out how to do this but it has me stumped.

I already can pulse a channel (to operate a shutter) but would like to have the delay between shots adjustable on a slider or pot.
The logical switches seems to only allow fixed on/off times. Any ideas on how to put this on a pot would be very appreciated.

Thanks

If no better solution is presented I could write you a lua script.

Thanks for offer. All my RC activities were on freeze due to divorce now on my return there is LUA, which I haven't had a chance to figure out yet.

It is easy.
On companion select firmware version with lua. Flash Tx.
Visit my website and contact me through there so that I can track my script requests.
What you want however may be possible without a script but I'm traveling at the moment so don't have access to companion to try.

Use a channel mix with SLOW active. Hold the channel at -100%, then, when you fire the shutter, switch the channel to +100%. The channel will rise at the slow rate. Use a logical switch to compare the channel value to the slider value. This logical switch will then turn on at a time controlled by the slider position.

Thanks for answer. Will try it next time I have a few minutes free.

Based on Mike's post above I have just took the challenge and came up with something that I think it is what you need?
If I well understood (or maybe not ) your request, you want an automatic adjustable timer that keeps taking pictures at a certain interval of time set by a pot or slider, while a switch is kept ON??

This was done in Eepskye which is an editor and simulator for Ersky9x. I don't use OpenTX. But you will get the idea. Inside the attached zip file there is a video I have made, and you can see all the settings. The logical switch to be used to control the camera is "L5", on this example. You will just have to translate the settings to OpenTX.. I'm sure it is possible
