Thanks for the information !!! I have my current sensor on a2 on the arduino .. My current reading on the radio is dead on in telemetry . Even in fuel I now get total mah cunsumed but it reads the same as mah ..I guess what I was looking for is a percentage of the total mah used from the battery (wh...

Carbo I love your videos !!! I've got everything working , i was just wondering in extra items to display, what is the meaning of volt 1, volt 2 adsvolt 1 etc. . And if i wanted to display fuel in mah how would I get it to work . I've read the description file many times..maybe I missed it..Wouldn't...

This will be a very newb question.. In config basic you have Data to transmit ..on each item you can choose volt 1, volt 2 etc. Exactly what do the volt 1 volt 2 , ads volt1 etc. represent ?..I have fumbled my way thru to have a ms5611 , mpu6050 , GPS , current sensor , voltage sensor all working gr...

So the FBVS01 voltage sensor works fantastic.. It is exact on the radio measured against a watt meter and multimeter .It's actually a little more accurate then the Frsky SP-FLVS sensor .. Took me a bit to configure it , but it is dialed in..Also have the current sensor and the GPS along with the ms5...

On mine I had to choose external, Multi , dsm , dsmx 11ms..I think also you need to go into telemetry and set to dsm and inverted

Carbo...The video helped me !! I was able to get calibration done and it works great !! Between yours and jhsa videos I have been able to get stuff working
Thanks again
Allen

I just figured it out ..I wasn't using capitol letters to answer yes and no ....#define A_MPU6050_IS_CONNECTED YES . I will watch your videos tho

Thank you so much for your help

Allen

I'm sorry that I was clear as mud ...LOl..I want to calibrate my mpu6050.. With DISPLAY_ACC_OFFSET uncommented and uploaded , when I press CTRL + SHIFT + M simultaniously the window pops up but nothing happens set the baud rate to (115200) . So do I need to go into advanced and define a fill test fo...

Yes that is what I am doing. I just need to know what lines I need to uncomment to get Test fields to display values for azzx,accy,accz.. Anyway thank you so much for helping me

Thanks as always
Allen

I installed a mpu6050 on one of my vario's ...I can run a sketch for 12c and get addresses 77 and 68..When i go into advanced config and set #define DISPLAY_ACC_OFFSET . when I try to get the values I get nothing displayed .On my radio vario altitude is working..A4 and A5 ..sda scl ..INT to pin 2 of...

I will leave ground unhooked...Thank you so much for your help

Thanks so much
Allen

Thanks for the reply...So I connect V+ to A0 but do I hook ground to ground or leave it unhooked .

Thanks
Allen

So somehow going thru my stuff I found 6 of the FBVS01 voltage sensors .. Looks to me to be a voltage divider (probably wrong ) :lol: ...Can i use these to measure voltage with my vario's that I have built ? . I have Ms5611 and gps on my vario's , would like to measure total bat. voltage Thanks agai...

So I have a orange module that uses the internal antenna and is for the 9xpro only . It never received telemetry so bangood sent me a new one. I flashed the bootloader to it and used update multi and now it binds and has telemetry ..It will also bind to my convergence which it wouldn't before Thanks...

I found it in another thread .Second MS5611 must have the MS5611 CE (chip enable) pin connected to VDD. So it gets automatically an I2C address 0x76..I'm just going to run singles as that's all I need .

Thanks again
Allen

So I ran 2 different pro mini with each ms5611 showing 0x77 as address.. I then combined the 2 with only one sensor showing connected ( I think I needed to add a wire to one of them) but anyway I then connected back to pro mini and the first one I tried worked fine..Must have been a bad wire somewhe...

Thanks so much ! I will download the sketch and see what is happening .

Allen

I had a vario built with 2 ms5611 and everything worked great . I decided I would split the ms5611 up and make 2 vario's ..Neither ms5611 would work by themselves . I did go into the config a set them for individual . green light would come on each of them and nothing .I built a different one with a...

I am building sensors right now and I always have questions and they always get answered ...100% of the time .

Allen

Yes I did . And I am pretty sure That I can install it without added resistors ...But being pretty sure usually gets me in trouble .

Thanks
Allen

So I have searched and I have read a bunch but I still have a question . I have built 6 vario's with pro mini's 5v 16mhz and ms5611 with gps . I have 5 mpu6050 boards (gy-86 would have been better ). Can and I use these with my setup and if I can what is the correct way to hookup and do I have to us...

No way to use those together . You can get a multimodule or a dsm2/dsmx compatible rx . I use those orx modules with orange and lemon rx's and they work great

Allen

Thanks so much . I have FT232RL FTDI USB 3.3V 5.5V to TTL Serial Adapter Module that I use to program the pro mini .
As usual I'm sure I will have other questions..

Thanks again
Allen

Stupid question .but want to make sure . I have built 6 of Mikes SBUS decoders and I used a store bought inverters . They all work fantastic and are hooked up to x8r and s8r receivers . Is this the same decoder that I can use for eepsky to simulate models (I believe they are) just want to make sure ...

The Rmilec works great with the x8r rx . I have not tried it with eepskye . The ones I built I used Mikes sketch I just didn't build the inverter . I bought them for a few dollars ..lazy I guess

Allen

I use 5 of the RMILEC that you reference and I also built several of Mikes . They both work great . On the ones I built U have to invert the sbus signal so I bought inverters for them . Mike has the inverter diagram with his schematic

Allen

Thanks so much . I bet all 3 of my pro's are set to master . Live and learn
Thanks again
Allen

Mike is that normal for the Taranis ?

Ok It's fixed . In radio setup trainer was set to slave .I moved it to sbus and now the module comes on at powerup . I dont know why but it worked . It does bind and control model just fine

Thanks Mike
