I've built and posted (first post) a version for the X10 (non Express). I don''t have a X10 so cannot test it.

Re: Special fixes
I haven't built a version for the non-Express X10. I could look into building one! To flash a .bin file you put it in the "firmware" directory on the SD card, then use the bootloader to flash the file. I don't know about making sure luac is included, I don't normally build or use openTx, I...

Re: eePe save model problem
The original 9X running er9x doesn't use trims inwards method to allow access to the EEPROM.
You should be connecting using a USBASP (or smartieParts) programmer.
The "stopped" message is there to allow serial access to a "MegaSound", addon board.

Re: 9XR PRO - better gimbals
It depends on the the electrical output from the Gimbals. If it is an analog voltage, then that will work as long as the mechanical fit is OK.
If it is a PWM output then they will not be supported by the firmware and it is unlikely the firmware could be changed to handle it.

Re: Glitches on my servos (USM)
ACCST V2 certainly removes the known USB bug.
If I understand correctly only Ail is glitching? Are the Ail servos on long cables?
If only Ail is glitching, then I would think it unlikely to be caused by a RF problem.
Do the servo cables run close to the Rx antennae?

Re: Glitches on my servos (USM)
The USM problem only occurred very rarely, I would be very surprised if it happened several times in one flight, and the V2 firmware does fix it. UNI will give you an extra telemetry value, VFR, which will indicate if you are losing a lot of RF packets. What power supply are you using? Digital servo...

Serial.print may work, but the Arduino delay() won't. No quick answer as loop() is always checking 4 timing values to schedule operations. Any long delay will cause problems.

The FlvssCells array is updated when data is received from the sensor, so always holds the last values received.

Re: Reading LiPo sensor FLVSS with Arduino Uno
With the TXHUB_PIN set to 1, this takes over the pin Serial.print would use. Also, the timing for reading the SPort is critical, so the interrupts used for the Serial function will upset this. The code is carefully setup so that the SPort is accessed, then up to 4 bytes are sent to the "HUB&quo...

Re: Reading LiPo sensor FLVSS with Arduino Uno
OK, remove the line with "HUB_SEPARATOR " on it (this is the cause of the '^' in the display.
Change the line:
value = FlvssCells[0] ;
to:
value = FlvssCells[0] / 5 ;
You displayed value is actually 19.15, which is 3.83 * 5.

Re: Reading LiPo sensor FLVSS with Arduino Uno
OK, with a FLVSS connected, the array "FlvssCells" should get filled with the cell voltages. The values are 0-420 representing 0.0 to 4.20 volts. So if you change sendHubPacket() to: void sendHubPacket() { uint16_t value ; HubInIndex = 0 ; value = FlvssCells[0] ; TxHubPacket[HubInIndex++] ...

Re: Trim change with rates
A mix with a weight other than 100% will affect the trim setting.
The "best" way to handle rates is to use the "Expo/D.Rate" menu as this applies the rate setting to the stick input and doesn't affect the trim in a mix.

You may select from 4 themes. Each theme has its own brightness setting, together with text and background colours.
If a theme has not been configured, it will be set using the current values. Just select a theme number (0-3), then change the above settings for it.
