Interesting problem with OpenLRSNG

Post by sgofferj »

Hi,

I got myself a Hobby King OpenLRS kit and flashed OpenLRSNG 3.0. Then I configured OpenTX to output 12CH PPM. OpenLRSNG is also configured for 12CH. On the receiver, I have channel 1-8 output in a PPM stream on pin 6 and pin 2-4 output channel 9-12 as PWM. The PWM channels work smoothly. However, when I feed the PPM signal into my APM, I have the following issue:
If Ch5, 6 or 7 is > 50%, then suddenly all channels are one number off. That means, transmitter channel 5 arrives at the APM as PPM channel 6. Transmitter channel 6 appears on the APM as PPM channel 7, and so forth.

Does anyone have any idea what might be the reason for that problem?

OpenTX chose automatically 30.5ms, 300µs, -
I didn't change that.

sgofferj, you may be experiencing a problem that was found in 3.0. it should be fixed in 3.1.

It is fixed. I updated today and tested and it works. I found a bug in OpenTX, however, but I open a new thread for that.
