Re: Another two modules thread. 2.0

Yes, I bind using the bind option in the Protocol / Multi menu in Ersky9x. No need for the module's bind button. I also don't need the rotary switch or the USB connector as I flash the module using the radio. The LED was moved from the multi PCB to the back of the radio.. João Thanks for your answe...

Re: Another two modules thread. 2.0

I finally got some time to try it again to flash the module. What I did was I flashed the firmware direct to the module. I couldn't get the flashing from the tx to work. I bound the radio to my whoop and I'm a happy flying indoors..:-) I have another question: I know that you ,João, use the module a...

Re: Another two modules thread. 2.0

Hay Mike, I have set it to 'Flash from tx'. I followed the steps again, to see what I could have missed but I think I did everyting right. Still the same error on the tx. After that I selected the option 'Upload via serial', so I uploaded the firmware via the FTDI adapter to the module. So the modul...

Re: Another two modules thread. 2.0

The bootloader is a different piece of firmware. Go here: https://github.com/pascallanger/DIY-Multiprotocol-TX-Module/blob/master/docs/Compiling_STM32.md#preparing-to-upload-the-firmware , then follow the instruction for "Burn the bootloader". Mike Thanks Mike! Somehow I skipped that step...

Re: Another two modules thread. 2.0

What bootloader did you flash to the module? The STMduino bootloader is for flashing from the USB, not the radio. In the Arduino IDE, have you used the "boards manager" and installed "Multi 4-in-1 STM32 Board"? Hay Mike, I'm a bit confused. Is it correct if I say that I first ha...

Re: Another two modules thread. 2.0

Well, I tried to flash the module from my tx but I only get the message 'Failed'...[emoji849] When I was flashing the bootloader to the module via the FTDI adaptor, the FTDI voltage was set to 5V. Is it possible I fried the module? When the module is in my tx and I turn the tx on, the red light on t...

Re: 9X (and possibly 9XR/PRO) Switch Board Design

It shows that theory and real life sometimes not the same!
Good thing you have tested this thoroughly!!

I like the two Mosfet solution :)

Is this board ready to make? Or do you still want to test something on the two-Mosfet board?

Re: 9X (and possibly 9XR/PRO) Switch Board Design

Nice demonstration João!

Can't wait untill you had the time to test this with the charging port b/c after that I would very much like to make the PCB you made and put it in my radio.. :D

Incredible how fast you made this!! (you just never sleep, right?!) :shock:

Looks nice and I hope you will not frie the 9x board...! I have my fingers crossed... :D

I assume you have a 9X board to test it on? Otherwise I can also test it of cource.

Re: 9X (and possibly 9XR/PRO) Switch Board Design

You have don a lot of work again João! It keeps better and better..:-)

I will have a look for a program, the one I used in the past, to see if it is still free to use.

I have a question: is the 6 pin connector missing from the PCB? Or do you have a other way of connecting the board to the radio?

Re: 9X (and possibly 9XR/PRO) Switch Board Design

Wow João! The speed you come up with designs is amazing... :o

The number of parts is indeed kept as low possible. Nice!

You will test this on the breadboard, but do you also test circuits with a computer program?

Single sided PCB would be nice... ;)

Re: 9X (and possibly 9XR/PRO) Switch Board Design

Super that it connects to the 6 pin connector! Right, I understand the ON/OFF switching of the radio and charging circuit. I think I have an idea of what to do, I think i will go back to one of my original ideas for the charging circuit, and it will use the original positive switching but controlled...

Re: 9X (and possibly 9XR/PRO) Switch Board Design

Hello João,

I'm wondering how this project is going. Have you been able to test this project lately?
I sure would like to help with the testing if that is what still needs to be done.

This redesign of the switch board is a important mod I thinks!

Best regards,
Maarten

Thanks all of you for the reply's! I reversed my sticks, now it's all ok.

I love the feel of the M9's and the precision! Nice mod... :P

P.S. I reversed the sticks on the radio (not via eepskye)

Re: FrSky M9 gimbals in a 9x - photos (traffic!)

I also got a couple of M9 gimbals for my 9Xtreme (after 9 weeks of waiting for HorusRC to have stock again).

Thanks for the posts andrewju!! This will make the mod go so much easier! Knowing where to look for and what I can expect.

When I got them in I will report if aything when different.
