Re: Is anyone still DIYing Radios?

Are you still around guys? :lol: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Uops, I have just seen this post. Yeah, I am still here. I come weekly for checking if there is a newer ersky test version, lol.

Re: ErskyTx Test Versions

Hello Mike, I have downloaded the latest eepesky version and I have flashed the r224 20.01.2024 9xt version on my 9xtreme radio. It might just me, but since I did it, all the previous models I have programed dont work propperly anymore. I do not have time to deep check it because I am leaving in 5 m...

Re: Adjust or trim FasV

Hey guys! As Mr. Kilrah pointed, there was an error in the code. I corrected it with a friend's help, and now it works as expected.
Of course it is always great to be able to trim it with Ersky, but it is better if it works good from factory.

Yet again, thanks for your help, Mike!

Hi, I am not sure if it is possible to do it, but I have an isue with the battery telemetry. The FasV is like 2 volts too high and I wonder if it is possible to trim or to adjust it, somehow.

Re: ErskyTx Test Versions

Hi, non important question, just curiosity:

I flashed the last Ersky test version for checking the new Num Sats function, and, even when I do get the GPS coordenates, the num sat is always 0.
Is it a bug in the software or might it be related with my telemetry multi sensor?

Re: New gimbals for old 9x

Mechanically, I don't know if they will fit. Hall sensor gimbals have usually one of two types of output, analog or PWM. Electrically, the gimbals connect to analog inputs on the 9Xtreme board. The particular inputs used cannot be set up for PWM signals as they cannot be configured as timer inputs,...

Re: Need some guidance with telemetry.

He saw it, fixed it and everything works as expected.

Re: Need some guidance with telemetry.

Discover sensors is only for openTx. Is this an openX sensor you have built or the one from the YouTube video? In erskyTx, if you go to ModelSetup|Telemetry|logging, there is a tick at the right of the screen beside any telemetry item that is being received. Some items (like Tx battery and GVARS) a...

Re: Add push buttons to the 9XR Pro.

Perfect, 2 push switches are better than none. :D
I opened my 9x radio one trillion times, but the 9xr pro only once like 6 years ago. Is something written in the PCB or is there something I have to look for?

I guess positive will go to the board and negative somewhere else.
