Core9X is just stock 9X with possibly a different LCD, and normally people use ER9X as it has SSD1306 and Serial display support built in. OpenTX 9X actually works without modifications if you happen use the same ST7565 based parallel LCD, but they aren't that common. There is an old fork of OpenTX ...

I noticed the new Companion lists a "DIY MEGA2560 radio" as one of the choices, and you can select the LCD driver. Could a version of the 9X & 9X 128 be made this way as well, to be used with the original core9X project ? Another way could be adding the LCD selection to normal 9X branc...

...drone... Do not use that word lightly my friend... Too many people overthink it, and are the reason we might not have fun things in the future . For most people, a Drone is something that flies autonomously, you are able to set waypoints for it to fly to, and could be used by TERRORISTS (!1one) ...

Turnigy micro qBot / HiSky FF120 enables automatic flips when CH5 is at 100% and you give full ELE or AIL. These flips are ridiculously fast, and even if you map the channel to the TRN switch, you can easily flip twice while correcting after the first flip. I modified the simulated arming toggle to ...

The output power of the Magic Cube is 10mW, so the range is tiny. And if that is the Version 1, you don't want it :) "No fail safe for the magic cube. If it shuts off due the battery runs out or if the connection is broke even for a split second the helicopter or quad will take off on its own w...

Will do Hman545. JohnEdwa, what you suggest is possible. Can I ask what sort of signal is on the signal pin of the AnyLink system ? 5v push-pull, open collector, etc. ? Cam. Traner port outputs PPM, and I think it is the same for every manucfacturer. Too tired to explain, have a picture. http://i.i...

I just realized that this could actually be much more useful project than previously thought! The original FlySky FS-TM002 module requires AETR channel order, and fits to a JR module slot. For example, people who use Spectrum radios don't have JR module slots, and even if they connect one through th...

It seems WLtoys is going to drop the FlySky completely, and go with whatever protocol the v202 uses for all of their new quads ("BK2423" and "nRF24L01"). The reason being that FlySky can't make reliable accelerometers... so they are going to release the V949 as v212, and V959 as ...

Micro quads (Vitality H36 is 12cm across motor to motor) don't have disarming of their own, so when you land, you either shut the controller off, or make a software way for disarming. As I had the near crash with the sticky, but also use my radio on a neck strap where bumping both throttle and a swi...

Now this seems like a bunch of people who know what they are doing. I posted about using these transmitter boards with the 9x months back , but this seems like a good place to revisit it. Mainly, the HJ V997 Mini-pet has a board like this and the WLtoys v202 has one like this (the front one). Could ...

Ok, try like this That works like it is supposed to, but it seems we have hit a limit in er9x; the warning beeps are run on a constant 'every 2 seconds' tick instead of when the condition is actually met. So the next best thing is, using your template, to do "SW4 = SW2 and SWA", and beep ...

Try this one.. still working on the alarm.. if you had voice it would be easier ;) CH3 -100% HALF R 100% THR SWA (Just had to invert the situation here ;) Now hopefully the model will start always with the throttle-cut on) Now it is right to arm and left to disarm. You can live with this one, right...

Okay, I seem to have gotten somewhere with my fiddling (Link at the bottom) Please note that this was done by trial and error and is my first self made model, there is probably a better and more efficient way to do this. But at least with this, explaining what I want should be easier :) I have 5 swi...

I'm currently using a sticky throttle cut, but after a very close call when I accidentally bumped the switch mid-flight, I'd like to get a slightly more quad friendly version. Basically, I would like it to work like a disarm, so that accidental bumps of the switch or throttle wouldn't matter while f...

So, while the RTF RC toy world had a nice period of 9X (FlySky) compatible models being produced, it seems to be slowly fading away. Some of models were compatible with the 9X by a magical board called RF-20DBM-002 V11 . This was used by, for example, the WLtoys v911, v929, v939, v949, the Xieda 995...

I actually did this too a while back, but as I quickly moved away from the 3ch IR heli to more advanced stuff, never bothered to actually polish this to release. Might as well link this here for future reference, and while the code 'just works', I am quite proud of the board I made. Don't know if it...
