I just loaded an eeprom from my Taranis and still the same problem with the re-compiled version.

Paul

I just tried it with a sky9x eeprom previously saved with an earlier eepskye version and identical problem.

Paul

Mike. Latest test version of eepskye Jun 23 2014 has problems. Model 01 looks ok but all other models lose their settings completely. The names of the models show correctly in the initial menu but when a model is selected for editing then all settings are missing except for the model in 01. This pro...

It's too high for me as well, but I would like a reasonably priced sensor.

That sounds like a good idea. I have both Taranis and Sky9x so it will make it much easier to program and move models to the other transmitter.

Paul

I just tried the June 10 version of eepskye and have the same issues with safety and voice switches.

Paul

Could the beeps be a problem caused by eepskye? I originally loaded the new test version straight on to the Taranis transmitter with the bootloader. I had no beeps after the countdown to zero. Then I did some extensive programming of a model with eepskye (June 6, 2014 ver.) and reloaded the eeprom w...

Changes to the timers work perfectly. Thanks for your usual excellent work.

Paul

I prefer no beeps after the timer has reached zero but do keep the negative display. I would prefer this for both timers. We are getting too many beeps from the radio for different things. e.g. Pot/stick centring, D type module warnings. My usual solution with a questionable beep is to land and try ...

Mike, I have been using the test versions with the menu improvements and find them much more user friendly. I am looking forward to the same type of improvements in the model setup.

Paul

Flaps 30, have you tested these: http://www.alofthobbies.com/40cm-receiver-antenna.html. Also available in 25cm and 60cm lengths. They appear to be sleeve dipole. I have a set but haven't installed them yet. The pcb antennas that come with the Taranis X series receivers are supposed to be better tha...

I have been using both timer voice countdowns on OpenTX and find them very useful. Timer1 is set for 30 seconds for the motor run time and Timer2 is set for 10 minutes or the specified total flight time for ALES. Both timers start at the same time. There are no conflicts is this case. A selection bo...

I setup some timers on a previously programmed model on my sky9x transmitter and the reset worked properly. The Timer2 has the same problem with countdown as the Taranis. I tried to duplicate João's problem above with a new model and my timers worked properly.

Paul

I tried the test version on my Taranis and it works correctly with SW2m. I will try later on my Sky9x transmitter. I don't anticipate any problems with the Sky9x. I did notice that Timer1 gives audible minute and second verbal countdown but Timer2 doesn't give any audible voice or beep countdown. Paul

Setting for SF1 and SF2 is simply L2. L2t is not available as a selection. It looks like L2 only triggers the reset. If I reduce the throttle below the a>x THR 85 setting and then increase it again then it triggers another reset.

Paul

I am not sure of what you mean by the timer operation. The reset I am talking about is part of the Special Functions menu in OpenTx. The reset feature also allows resets of the telemetry or rotary encoder. It works the same as a long press of the Exit button on the transmitter but is triggered by th...

Thanks Mike. I had thought the volume in RADIO SETUP was the full volume setting and the volume adjustment with a pot changed the relative strength of the RADIO SETUP setting. I don't have pot scroll enabled.

Paul

I have one sky9x transmitter on OpenTX 2.0.0 and Ersky9x on the other two. I am not happy with the OpenTX and have decided to simplify by switching it to Ersky9x as well. The one problem I have and the reason I have not yet switched is my electric gliders are on the OpenTX. I have the timers reset b...

Confusing? FIRMWARES? My Sky9x bootloader with OpenTX 2.0.0 only reads .bin files from the Firmware directory.

Paul

My Sky9x transmitter is not recognized by Companion 2.0.0. When I try to read models or write firmware to the transmitter I get a warning window saying "No Taranis radio found". I have tried selecting both versions of OpenTX for Sky9x board/ 9x that are available in the Edit Settings menus...

A1 is showing the receiver voltage correctly now with the new test version. RxV is showing 0 at all times.

Paul

Your charger will always show more mah back into the battery then the telemetry showed that you used. This is due to the inefficiencies in the charging process. Some of the current put into the battery is given off as heat. You can notice this most when you use a high C charge rate. Some batteries a...

I am using a Taranis with your latest test version of ersky9x, X8R receiver, and the FAS100 into a FVAS-02H high precision vario connected to the SPort. I had the same problem with earlier versions of erSkye. The SP-40A amp sensor straight into the SPort does not have a problem.

Paul

Both bugs are fixed. Thanks Mike

Paul

I change my custom screen to read A1, FasV, and RxV. The original problem was A1 on the custom screen. It rapidly fluctuates between .3 and .4. When I disconnect the battery on the aircraft it then shows 5.7V which is the BEC output. The 5.7V was probably the last voltage it read before the disconne...

Hi Mike. I was in a rush when I wrote about the problem with custom switches and I knew you would want more info if you were not aware of a problem. I have a set of mixes and custom switches which do a nice job of simulating aircraft strobe lights when attached high power led's are attached to an el...

When I use my FAS-100 on erskye for Taranis with X8D receiver and FVAS-02H the voltage on A1 fluctuates between a reading of .4 and the receiver voltage.
The log file shows the same problem. It is either 0.4V or what looks like the receiver voltage 5.6V.

Paul

I am flying ersky9x for Taranis with a GPS but without haptic. It works OK. Altitude is not very accurate, but then it is not very accurate on any GPS due to the way it is calculated. My understanding of GPS altitude calculations is that GPS triangulates the position of all satellites in view and th...

If you don't need more pots then it is just a matter of relocating 2 of the pots at the top of the radio to the sides. The holes where the pots were could be covered over or a new switch installed.
