Re: HELP PLEASE! Possible encoder issue, don't want to fry the new board...

If you want to make something small just for the trims, you can use something similar to this:

Re: Did I erase my radio/chip? Or just fry a regulator?

If you have somebody that repairs mobile phones nearby, he will be able to rework and solder a new CPU for you.
With the right equipment it is not that complicated.

Good luck,

Re: Did I erase my radio/chip? Or just fry a regulator?

if your 5v line is working, and you have a (well) regulated power supply, try to feed the 3.3v line with it and see what happens.

Maybe you can power the gauge circuit on RF-POWER_ON, with the ground permanently connected. You will get a functional voltage gauge and adjust with a simple two resistors voltage divider.
This will not work while charging though.

Re: Switch feedback and power wiring issues in 9XR-P case mod project

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do. As far as I understand, you are capable of using the switch on the old Futaba radio to power the Pro board, and everything seems to work. So far, so good. Also you want to have a functional analog voltmeter, (for cosmetic reasons?) that works when...

Nice upgrade on a classical radio. I love it. I suppose you are familiar with this schematics: If not it can be very helpful. See the post sent by SkyNoth with the atachements. (edited to change non working link) : https://openrcforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=122&t=10946&hilit=schematic#p1...

Hi Mike, and all,

Knowing that you have a lot on your plate with new developments, this is intended to be just a remainder on this matter.
If you find the time and motivation to advance on this matter, great. In any case, thanks for your job on this firmware.

found that nine point curves are presented and edited (stored ?) as five point. That is also true for the previous release.

Re: Ersky9x Bug Reporting

HI,

Found a couple of lines missing at the right and bottom of the edit curve screen.

Version is 222 19.05.2019 and radio is 9XR.Pro but on a different box, with the inverted screen option checked, so maybe it is only just my radio.

Hi,
pins are diam 1.5mm and 8.0mm long, measured with a caliper.

You can replace with 1.5mm piano wire if you have some lying around.

Re: Throttle scaling/limit

Food for thought in every mixer line. Thanks for the class.

I also never thought about the non linearity of asymmetric dual rates and limits. Anyway, maybe not that noticeable for a throttle channel.(?).

I'm afraid this will not allow to get to -100 to cut throttle.

Re: Throttle scaling/limit

If you use a switch, Dual rates is all you need.

Configure one side of the chosen switch from -100 to +100 and the other from -100 to +80. Done.

Yes, that is what I use.

Works perfect, except on the bootloader screen. The "problem" only appears if my eeprom is exported and read by a stock 9xr-pro.
