Have a look at the Yaapu script. His solution and installation of the script on FrSky radios is well documented. See here: https://github.com/yaapu/FrskyTelemetryScript

Could use two receivers, one with each transmitter using internal for telemetry (opentx). With ersky9x for Taranis you can choose which transmitter you want to use for telemetry, internal or external. But the LRS systems I mentioned allow any serial data through, multiplexed with the rc data, so fu...

Most people use the transmitter antenna that comes with there Taranis. Sometimes range is affected by where you are doing your testing. You may want to look at the external TBS Crossfire (https://alofthobbies.com/tbs-crossfire-diversity-bundle.html). I'm happy with ULRS thanks with full duplex 1920...

Could buy the external XJT module and this could fix all your troubles too (https://alofthobbies.com/frsky-xjt-jr-graupner-type-16ch-duplex-transmitter-telemetry-module.html). I did that also, but initial testing showed range issues with this too, so ended up with a new taranis. I never gave that m...

The ESD protection was not originally there, it was only added at some point after too many people shot their board while adding an SMA pigtail. That is good to know! Wondering how we could identify a board with esd protection - and if those replacement boards from banggood have this feature. Incid...

I just upgraded to OpenTX 2.2.1, and I cannot find the way to display in the screen the lowest cell value. In 2.0 I just have a Cell parameter that showed the minimum value, but in 2.2 cannot figure out how to obtain that value. Is anywhere where the new values/calculations are explained for 2.2? T...

I have a telemetry script running on 2.1 (and 2.2) Taranis, and want to have some variables in the script reset if the user chooses the "reset flight" menu option. Is there any way to detect in the script that "reset flight" has been actioned?

Thanks, Paul

Kilrah, I just tried running through the S6R_Calibrate.lua script, and keep hitting snags running this also. When a calibration takes, it flashes the yellow LED which stays on for a second then goes off, but I have not managed to complete all the calibration steps - when it fails, the yellow LED jus...

No, no module. I will try again tonight.

I have tried dozens of times with no improvement. Getting solid green light, so no disconnection.

Incidentally, the calibration script works fine.

I have this morning been trying to configure a S6R with the s6r.lua script included on the 2.2V0005 SDCard files. I am running 2.2RC10 on a Taranis+. Page 1/2 allows me to select Delta and Horiz, then page 2/2 allows me to select Enable as first field (S6R Functions), but then all the following fiel...

Yes I ended up using the BGMusic option, but this repeats the track over and over - I need it to play just once for a launch script (After its launched I don't need it to play over and over - maybe this could be an option for the BGMusic in a future release?

I don't think this is currently possible, but I would really like to discuss the idea of having a new option added to the "Play Track" Special Function on the Taranis. This new option when enabled, would allow the new track to play, interupting (stopping) any existing tracks that are in th...

You don't need to use LUA to do any of that stuff. You can do it on the Taranis directly without programming. For the 3-pos switch to give specific values, start in the curves screen and create a 3 point curve with your three values (for those 3 positions) on the y axis. These will correspond with 1...

Hi, I have been following a youtube video to setup an autolaunch mix on my Taranis. its basically 3 of the mixer channels replaced when switch SF is flipped towards me (shows SFdown in the mixer page), each of these replacement mix lines has a different up time associated with it - on the Taranis th...

I had this exact same issue last night with my X6R. Mine is using the latest EU LBT firmware. I have had it bound to my taranis plus for over a month on a Bix 3 plane, and about a week ago I transferred it to a new Cloud Surfer model I am building and its been working in my workshop in this model fo...

This issue is just in Companion and not in the 2.1.7 OpenTx f/w for Taranis plus:
The max number of channels you can set is 15, not 16 strangely. Just a validation error it appears based on value of the start ch.

In your case all these MAX lines should go in an Input, and in the mixer you just have 100% [input] and the delay. Kilrah, you are indeed a font of great knowledge! Thanks for this info. I just setup 5 Logical switches each using ANDs based on positions of my 2 switches SD and SG, each to represent...

Delay and slow work on a change of the source value, not on activation/deactivation of a line. If you set your source as the throttle stick and move it the dealy/slow will be applied to it. You use them on source MAX, which never varies so in any case you're not going to get the behavior you expect...

You should only ever have ONE line with a slow on a given channel, not more. I am using 'delay up/dn', rather than 'slow'. Is this comment valid to the delay configuration also? I have just tested putting the up/down delay to 0.3s on only the first mix line for Ch5 (as per my original screenshot in...

I think I have identified a bug in OpenTx 2.1.7 on Taranis Plus. I have the following mixes set up for Ch5 which controls my APM:Plane flight modes thus: Screen Shot 2016-03-27 at 13.45.09.jpg So there are two 3-pos switches controlling 5 different flight modes. With SG in the up position, SD is ful...

Just found this thread and trying to learn lua. I wrote this script based on the info above, but nothing displays at all on the telem screen running this code: local gpsLatLon = {} local function run(event) lcd.clear() gpsLatLon = getValue("GPS") if (type(gpsLatLon) == "table") t...

I see what you mean - I tried this workaround also and it does as you suggested. Nice work! To be honest though, this is a bug as the form shouldn't allow itself to get caught up this way, requiring the workaround to get the sensor row usable again. Do you concur? Should I make a feature request for...

That's a great idea! Many thanks for checking this for me. eepe file attached.

On a separate note - is there a way to easily copy telemetry settings to another existing model?

Best regards, Paul

Hmm if that line previously had a GPS sensor that wasn't deleted on the radio it's possible it still has its unit set to GPS, which hides the fields you don't see. Setting type to something else than custom should reset the other parameters and/or allow you to change them. If I set this line to Cal...

Maybe I'm not explaining myself clearly - apologies. This is what I am seeing (even if no data is entered on line 12 in the sensors table): Screen Shot 2015-10-11 at 12.59.14.jpg Regardless of the settings assigned to that row, it remains like this (as long as its set to 'Custom'). As I suggested, l...

Any idea why the telemetry page in Companion (I'm using 2.1.3 just now) has some of the sensor lines which don't display all the fields - on mine the 12th sensor definition line down (if selected as 'Custom') has the 2nd field (the one where 'Custom' appears) much longer than the same field on all o...

I tried various antenna orientations to get the best possible signal. I didn't know there was a range test mode! I was just simply looking at the telemetry screen where I had RSSI and SWR displayed. I shot a video if it - apologies, Its a bit boring! https://goo.gl/photos/S4s3yQZ6JU9Fw79n6

Ever since I have had my Taranis Plus (about 6 months now), due to being new to RC I have never really flown beyond 150m, I have noticed however that at this sort of distance I have been seeing fairly low signal strength (RSSI) - down to 40db. On my 680Pro hexa its never really caused any issues (ne...

So the program remembers, that the centering spring is disabled, but not, that the throttle is down ... Does not make sense :? I have always thought the same. This should maybe requested as an enhancement? In open Tx 2 the companion shows s3 also but does not work well at all to simulate the 6pos s...
