Nevermind turns out to be an issue with 2.3.3. Issue solved now.

Hey guys i just discovered an issue which i though was module related isn’t. I am running 2.3.3 on both radios. Both radios when using the internal module have this pulse across all channels. Its random but frequent. Its a 1500us pulse. Its does not happen is using a crossfire module. Ideas here?

ok thank you

is there any reason to use the flex if you live in the US

Hey so I have both the R9M and the R9M lite. I have not flashed the Flex firmware because I have been told since I live in the USA I do not need the Flex firmware. So I updated both my X-Lite and the X9D+ to OpenTX 2.2.3 reloaded all my models and settings. In the screen where you select what you wa...

Awesome thank you!

Hey guys I am trying to look at some ones settings file and what he sent me has a *.otx file. For some reason when I go to open it Companion only gives me the option for *bin, *hex, *eepe. What am I missing here?

Ahh i found it, in the inputs tab you select the input and change trim to off! thanks guys

Yeah I see that but will assigning it to a mix automatically keep it from being used a trim as well. So if I assign my rudder trim to channel 9 to change tail gain, i dont want it also giving rudder trim.

Hmm where is the include trim box? Cannot find it in model settings or the radio settings. Is this something I need to do in companion

let me try it thanks good sir!

Hey guys so I was browsing the net today and came across and interesting webpage http://rc-soar.com/opentx/setups/adjuster/adjuster.htm It describe the process of changing what the trims do. I don't use trims right now on my taranis and would be great to have them to adjust parameters in my flybarle...

Aynthing available that would allow you to see vibration levels on your aircraft?

Thank you for this. Have been reading alot!

I have been looking into OpenXsensor, but you are saying that it wouldnt work but it is not because of the downlink speed but rather filtering? I was thinking about adding an accelerometer/gyro with the baro as recommended in the openxsensor config description. Here is an example of what I am wantin...

Ahh ok totally makes sense. I was unaware of this thank you very much for clearing it up!

Alrighty then Thank you for the clarification

OK so I was talking about setting up hard deck and triggering rescue. Lets say I am practicing a new maneuver and I dont want to drop below 10ft So do the programming in the Taranis to trigger my rescue channel when Vario says I am below 10ft. That is what that comment it towards. He is saying that ...

I have a guy telling me this "There is not much benefit to using a 2 sensor baro setup with the FrSky telem system. Doesn’t matter if it is FrSky or OpenX etc. There are a few problems- - The lag with the sensor doesn’t change with multiple sensors. Whatever lag there is internally at the senso...

Hey guys So I am trying to view a log file with open tx companion 2.1.9 and it is saying there are invalids lines of code.

I was able to view it fine then I did a flight with altitude logging enabled and now it is saying this. Any ideas?

Ive included the log file incase it is needed.

Hey guys been trying to find an answer to this through google but I cant get anything to come up. When you select a sensor and go in to edit it at the bottom you have some options Filter is there and I was wondering what exactly it does. I have most of my stuff setup to log in .1sec intervals when I...

hey guys so I have been looking into building a sensor or three and was wondering about options for a current sensor that will do 200a? What is being used that is accurate and reliable?

I want to learn it. I got people I could help with it once I learn plus I am going to need for other models. That being said I have built arduino things before. Not familiar with coding though. I build then upload code that is already done. But github is like french to me. I dont know how it works.

Carbo! Thank you for that. Although I get so confused when it comes to github I am not sure how to use it. I need a tutorial. Also I would not be sure how to do what your post is describing with the frsky sensor. What your post is talking about is DIY arduino sensors correct?

Hey guys so I installed this sensor about 3 weeks ago in my heli and I have an issue with it where the altitude slowly increases. This happens while the heli is just sitting. Rotor isn't spinning nothing just sitting there. It will start around 0 and just slowly drift upwards. For instance right now...

Awesome thank you. Can you explain how the calculation works. I am a bit confused on it? Is it basically dividing the RPM by 933 and then multiplying it by 100. That works out correct as far as max headspeed is concerned. I just want to make sure I am understanding it totally.

OK so I have been trying to get this working it is making me feel stupid. My Gear ratio is 9.33 Obviously i cannot put in 9.33 under blades and if I just put in 9 the head speed is not correct. What in the world am I doing wrong.....

ahh ok then thank you

OK I am running 2.1.9 this is what I have when I edit the sensor NAME - RPM TYPE - Custom ID - 0500 5 UNIT - rpm PRECISION - 0.-- BLADES - 1 MULTIPLIER - 1 and there are some check boxes below that I dont ever see divider not even if I change the TYPE. What am I missing here

I was looking for it cause I thought that it was capable of doing it but couldnt find it. Can you give me a small walkthrough or direct me to a page that describe how to get it set up? thanks!
