I would call it "rainer dance stuff"

No hardware needed from your side, thanks. I would like to go with an Arduino mini board like C4Vette does. I found these links about S026 code, maybe some helpful stuff in there for your hack. S026 (1) S026 (2) Yes, I think stick trim will work fine. But what about yaw gyro trim ? On S026 there is ...

Maybe someone out there is interested in flying the S026G from a 9x. ?? 20130408_132614.jpg Yeah, here I am !!! :) Watching this thread from the beginning and was hoping this will become true for 9x. I love the very special and great sound of the S026G while flying. ....... Well, I`m your man :D

No, I don`t think so. They are too big and don`t ask for the price. I`ll bet for each of them you can buy a complete radio. Then you will have at least 16 stock pots for spare :D I was searching for those hall pots at a reasonable price for a while, but without luck. IMHO the best way is to make it ...

No, I was nerdy enough to find the only one fixed point.
Well,...after that I was pooped and unable to hold a cup of coffee steady
So I would`d do that for all the remaining 7 pots ....

EDIT
I have 2 radios ....

No, you really need the full voltage range. Anything less will reduce the ADC resolution instantly. You can`t compensate this by standard calibration, it only expand or reduce whatever range is present at the ADC port with the cost of resolution or resulting in dead band.

The sensitivity is not critical. These little magnets are strong enough anyway. I played allot with distance and position to learn how it works best. No doubt that the Allegro device may do the job like the Honey one. But whichever device will win the cup at the end it needs an opamp circuit for fin...

@Joao Yeah, shame on me. I think I`m getting old ............ :shock: :lol: Anyway, here are some details about my podmod. I use the Honeywell hall sensor device SS495B http://sccatalog.honeywell.com/imc/printfriendly.asp?FAM=solidstate&PN=SS495B The advantage is that it works directly with 5V with ...

hehe. That`s a funny thing ! :D I just come across this thread and I remember that I have done a working pod mod with hall sensor to one of my 9x. It was designated as a temporary prototype for test. But it works so nice for more than six month now, so I forgot it completely :shock: :lol: I am prett...

Yeah !!
Great, it works absolutely perfect now.

Gohst, thank you very much !

Just to make sure that no more packets are detected. Maybe 1-2 sec.

Ohhh, now this makes sense. IO_A is just pulling low at each packet ! Ok, it seems to be my mistake that I didn`t explain correctly what I am expecting to see at IO_A pin :oops: ( Sorry, could be my rubbish English :roll: :) ) So, what I need is pulling low if the first packet is received and keepin...

Hi Gohst,
I realized already the missing pullup, but still need your support
With your new hex file the external pullup is still needed and at pin A there is a puls train instead of a steady ground. I got high impedance if no packets are send.

Gohst, could you please post here again the Tez FW version with IO_A pulling low but now with the actual v75 ? Thanks a lot Here is a version that will pull IO_A low, when the Frsky module is sending packets. It turns high impedance otherwise. telemetrEZ.hex -Gohst Gohst, could you please check thi...

Thanks

What do you want to know exactly? If the Frsky module is sending data? Otherwise the 9x doesn't really send anything aside from a few setup packets, when it turns on, or you switch models. -Gohst Edit: Here is a version that will pull IO_A low, when the Frsky module is sending packets. It turns hig...

Yes, it sounds exactly like the Donkey Kong machine from Joao

Hi Promix, I've been discussing this with Bertrand and he mentioned that you have to make sure to select the you have to select the AUDIO option in c9x though but not the VOICE! If you could get the tone working, that would help in finding a solution for the audio problems from Joao as well. so ple...

Yes I have set all fields to the correct data and the vario is actually sending these data.

That`s all ?? I did it like this but still no sound.
I was wondering if I have to assign a custom switch to enable "play sound".

Anyway, parameters are max sink range, lower and higher end of the "silent" zone, and max. climb range. Units are dm/s. Is this true for openXvario type ? Or is it for WS vario ? I am looking for oXv settings. In custom switches menu I can`t select Vspd as source. Do I missed something ? I am lost....

Hmm don't see where you said it! ok, maybe my fault. I was assuming that the variant number tells you something about the options being selected..... so, maybe not :| As I have selected audio for compile option I can´t find these parameters you are mentioned :( Maybe c9x does`t compiled it correctl...

As I said I have audio option

Thanks Kilrah.
I know that I am very limited with the beeper frequency.

But I stuck with the set up of these parameters ....

Hmmm, I am trying to follow this thread but I can`t get any telemetry sound out of my TX.
What is the model set up to have the beeper beeping with oXv ?

I have stock board with stock beeper and open9x with r1947, variant 212-3
(No audio mod)

Flaps30 is right. It is a rain dance.....
I love pot setting method.

Hell yeah !! I really have the best audio mod ever !
My son stands beside me and parrots the display readings all the time .....

no time for coding - too much flying

Just returned from the field. several test flights done with my Hype Fox.
No issue here with vario.

Climb rate up to 8m/s
Max hight 300m
Vspd on glide ~ -1,7m/s

Alt always 0 on ground

NICE !!!

+1

For the Rpm issue, If you have enabled the pot cal method you don`t need to do any further entry to the sketch. In 0pen9x just add a 100% pod mix to the dedicated vario channel, thats it. Then you can turn the pot to vary the gain for Vspd sensitivity. Ohh! Is that all of that stuff I'm trying to k...
