Re: OpenLRSng won't bind - Flashing blue light instead of re

I think it actually should flash blue light.

Did you use auto update or select board types manually. Bind problems are likely if you flashed wrong HW type.

Been there for ever, just select Sxx (S for switch) in the rx pin configuration.

Re: [SUPPORT] OpenLRSng support thread

Broken antenna pigtail is a common problem with OrangeRX units and the 1W module is likely damaged by reflected RF. You can swap the RFM23BP (433MHz) on it though. This also explains some of the binding trouble, the reflected RF can freeze the module and there is a bit less checks during binding tha...

Re: [SUPPORT] OpenLRSng support thread

I need a little help. First problem: I just bought an OrangeRX LRS, and updated the firmware on both the TX and RX, however I can't get the RX to bind to the TX when the TX is connected to the configurator. Therefore I can't access the RX in the configurator, which I think is causing my second prob...

Re: [SUPPORT] OpenLRSng support thread

Just wondering, Does OpenLRSng support SBUS INPUT ? If not how hard would it be to add it? (I haven't played with OpenLRSng for over a year so I'm a bit out of date) I'm mainly interested in it from a latency standpoint for flying mini quads. With PPM it seems to be a minimum of around 45ms - 22.5 ...

When you speak about "serial interface", is the Arduino terminal inside IDE ? (I'm using Windows 7 64bits) You can use arduino serial monitor but teraterm or putty will work better. If you want to hack code then you can enable ppm by modifying binding.h:RxInitDefaults() however that is no...

Re: openlrs and taranis (telemetry)

Taranis smartport is on the pin marked ant on the adapter. You need to connect the serial tx onto that via a invertter to make it work.

As openlrsng does not need the ppm invertter you could reuse that :-D

Taranis telemetry instructions

To get telemetry workking with FrSky taranis following modification should be performed on the TX moduule.

HawkEye 1W TX modification

DTFUHF deluxeTX modification

OrangeRX UHF TX

It should be noted that the "internal module" must be switched OFF to make the telemetry work.

Many have modified their FrSky DJT to use the same pinout, with the telemetry Tx and Rx on pins 2 and 5 (TX on pin 5 is data From the module).
