There is at least one situation when the fonts for one of the widgets (in my case representing Timer two, renamed as Log), show shaded, regardless of the "shade setting" I choose. All settings with a default name (including my timer, if I do not assign it a name, do not show any issue. scr...

Re: Head tracking and buddy box configuration?
Nich, you hit the nail. There is an issue with the jack connector. First, it uses tip and body for signal and ground, but there is something wrong most probably with the elastic tong that contacts the tip, and it looks that requires that the groove in the plug to be of a bigger diameter than what is...

Re: Head tracking and buddy box configuration?
Thanks for your response nich. I didn't think about the length of the plug, but something has to be wrong there. Checking continuity is a great idea. That can very well define if this is a hardware problem. Because I plan to buddy box with other TX brands, I advanced and bought the external JP4in4 S...

Re: Head tracking and buddy box configuration?
Gents, I think I have the same problem as nicholgd, although it seems that nich is a step ahead of me. Here is the background: My head tracker (HT) has a mono audio plug, and it works perfectly with the Taranis X9D. I tried to make it work with the Jumper T18 to no avail. Therefore, I want back to s...

Configuring a channel using one Telemetry as its input
Gents, I know that we can define a channel using telemetry data as an input. My target is to use GSpeed or ASpeed as input to make a "dynamic knob" to adjust the gyros' general gain. All I was able to achieve is to have the channel going from 0 to -100% or 0 to 100%, but I was not able to ...

Re: OpenXSensor GPS project 101
Good news mstrens. When I connected the Neo8 back to the Ucenter, I found out that it had not changed the baud rate, therefore, I changed it back to 9600, saved, disconnected everything, connected back again to verify that it was still in 9600, and voila, it was. Connected to Arduino and now, it was...

That sounds outstanding. I was able to change the baud rate, but still I have no comms. However, I'll do some more tests because I know that the s port will not discover the GPS until the are several satellites fixed, and the initial test was indoors. Will let you know later what happens when I got ...

Thanks a lot for your response mstrens. I noticed the ucenter has a config tab, where to set the speed, but I think I will have to do some further research before I risk to mess up the GPS.

Re: OpenXSensor GPS project 101
mstrens, I ckecked out the Neo8 with the U-center. The only thing I found and that can be the reason why I don't have comm with the Arduino, is that the GPS is running at 38,400bps. Neo7 in the U-center connects at 9600. Therefore, I have a couple of questions: Is the Arduino running at 9600? and If...

Re: OpenXSensor GPS project 101
An arduino nano has already a converter usb/serial. So there is no need for a FTDI. With openXsensor (oXs) there is no need to configure the neo7M (or the neo6 or neo8) because at every startup oXs assume that the gps uses the default configuration from Ublox and send some code to the gps to upload...

Re: Frsky RB 10 telemetry slots error
I suggest you go to Delete all sensors and discover sensors. I have been using 2.1.9 for quite a while but did not have that problem. It happens that if you discover, and then make any change with the sensors, they may assume a different ID, and if you don't delete the previous you will have duplica...

Re: Flight Modes frustradtiomr
Well, I am not familiar with Pixhalk, but regardless, the important part is that you are defining flight modes in the Pixh through Taranis CH5. I am not sure about CH5 PWM (which should be CH5 in your RX), appears as CH7 on SBUS. I am using SBus too, but I have not such a mismatch between PWM and SB...

If you can fit that in your UAV is a good idea. Check range to determine if you will have you TX antenna in an horizontal plane or in a vertical plane to obtain max RSSI.
