Cool, congrats!

And yes, haven't you seen that 4-year old kid who was flying 3D helis like a pro?

Never too young to start!

pretty baby!

hang your FPV monitor right in front of him when you fly, he will be trained from infancy as FPV pilot.

Rob,

From Site Admin to Nappymeister.

Congrats, dad!

Glad to hear mum and son doing well. He looks to be a spittin' image of his dad, and that's not at all bad.

That is great news Rob.

Are you going into mass production in the future?

Post by **Rob Thomson** » Fri May 18, 2012 2:18 pm

Nope! Limited edition.

Congratulations Rob, to you and your wife and my best wishes for the new born.
It's seem yesterday my one was of that size, but time goes by fast and he is almost tall as me.

congratulations. I remember when mine were that small. and quiet

Congratulations from Finland too.

I do also have couple flying buddies. Now you have a good reason to buy another TH-9X for your flying buddy, so she cannot complain about your acquisitions.

Congratulations Rob! When you can't sleep please start a new sound "Baby" for the Tx. I will help you in one month

Waaaaaa. Waaaaa. Waaaaa!

Congratulations to all you family from my wife and I.

You need to create a lullaby to play in ersky9x, I've put the codes for the 'piano tones' in, just needs them sequenced and timed!

Send me an example of how to do the calls... And I will make one

Hey, what a great idea.. I also have a baby.. but I only have the normal er9x radio.. it would be possible with a sound module, right??

Post by **MikeB** » Sun May 20, 2012 8:30 pm

Rob: The frequencies are in the array PianoTones, You just need to queue the required tones with duration using:
uint32_t queueTone( uint32_t frequency, uint32_t time, uint32_t frequency_increment )
It returns a 1 if it accepted and queued the request, 0 if it is busy with previous requests.
A frequency of 0 causes a pause, the time is in milliseconds, rounded to 5mS.

Mike.

Nice!
