Cool !

What processor is in that transmitter?

Mike

Mike, found this thread that seems to answer your question. actually, it seems you already had a look into it in the past.

Processor -MKL16z64 64kb flash 64pin.
I use Kinetis Disign Studio for porting.
Now I'm working on PPM-OUT, I need to check everything in the AeroFly simulator.
Then I will activate the radio module

Mike, can I ask you questions?
I do not yet understand the organization of the menu, I need to remove the items that are unnecessary for the FS-I6 and add the ones I need.

(I use Google translator, I don’t know English very well)

I continue to work.
PiSpkr activated.
The PPM output is activated.

Testing the PPM output and exponent on the simulator https://youtu.be/h-IRp01bjrE - look!

The RF-module is working https://youtu.be/6DephUlm9Xw

SInce the Git updates of 2019-07-30 the status of the IDx switch is shown on the system page that shows the status of hardware and logic switches. That shifted all the following LSx switches one position to the end, thereby loosing the last logic switch LI from the last subview.
The TRN switch display can be left out, as its status is shown with the color of the IDx switch, freeing one position in the chain of switches and allowing the LI switch to be shown again as the last switch

Reinhard

Around line 8140 of menus.cpp, change + 3 to + 4: and you will remove TRN and get LI back.

Mike

Thanks Mike

Reinhard

It looks like I've found a way to save 28 bytes of RAM, at a cost of around 50 bytes of flash.

Mike

Mike, isn't that bad for the m64?

João

I saved several hundred bytes of flash on the M64 in the middle of last year, so using up 50 or so is OK. Saving 28 bytes of RAM is more useful, particularly on the M128 as that only has the same 4K of RAM as the M64, and it uses more.
I'm not sure what use I shall make of the RAM yet!

Mike

Could you take it for improved telemetry handling maybe?
Hubert

I would think about that carefully For example, what features are currently limited due to RAM compared to the other processors?

That is really great news!

It can use the internal RF module via SPI?
Is it possible to do AFHDS and AFHDS 2A? I just was about to buy this radio and just hesitated because there is no free software for it, in case the factory software is useless.

Thanks alot!

By the way... Is the source available somewhere?

Yes, using an internal RF module, implemented by AFHDS2A. AFHDS is not available yet.
The firmware has been working for a long time, I have not looked here for a long time.
At the moment, a project is being prepared for 2 transmitters I6 and I6X at once. This project will be published on GITHub.
The working version can be downloaded here - https://alnado.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?p=11305#p11305 (Russian forum).

Sorry, I use google translate

That sounds very interesting and don't worry about the language, my russian is pretty bad

Just read a couple of pages of the russian forum (thanks google), very interesting seems you really plan to squeeze out the optimum of the kinetis for V2.

I saw that the receivers like IA6B and X6B both have the same RF module as the TX, so I was thinking about using an RX as a TX module, but that's still just an idea, as I'm still stuck with my dumb 5ch flysky AFHDS system.

Thanks for your efforts

Indeed, a TX module can be made from the FS-IA6B receiver. I already did this for SANWA-SD6G (built-in was broken).
It is enough to flash the receiver, all the necessary contacts for connection are brought out.
The code was written based on - https://github.com/pascallanger/DIY-Mul ... -TX-Module

Thank you for your interest in my work

I was thinking of adapting the multi module code for the receiver too. Do you have the schematics or the key pinouts of the receiver?(I'm lazy, so hoping I could do without tracking the pinout )

There is no circuit and code ...
HDD,containing the project - went to heaven.
All over again....

Oh how great!
Happens from time to time. always those hd which you think i should back up but well nothing will happen, i will secure it soon

FlySky I6X

I try to backup most of my data in more than just 1 drive.. And even store them separately.

Great! Could you (or somebody else...) explain how to load the hex file onto the I6? Can I use the programmer and software from Flysky?

No, you need a J-Link programmer, the same or similar https://aliexpress.ru/item/400014306829 ... 0433160714

Thanks, I found the instructions in the Russian thread you linked and translated them to English with the help of Google. If there are no obvious mistakes, I'll clean it up a bit...

From the above manual it looks like a Cortex M0...

Thanks for the translation, did you try to reflash the transmitter?
