What version of eepskye are you using? In particular, have you updated to use the version compiled using QT5?
I'm now moving over to using that version only as it supports very high resolution screens better, and also the graphing of log files, which won't compile on the QT4 version.

I've got a change in that may well let eepskye flash firmware using the openTx bootloader.

I know that when I open eepsky - it asks if I want to update it .. I think it says R422 ? I say yes - it downloads but then fails to install saying corrupt.

I will download it from er9x page direct instead of via the app ... and try again.

OK ... load and restore worked ..... via USB

But R422 eepesky still not wanting to talk .. said TX not mounted ... could not find suitable TX in drop down for it ... but it saved to MODELS as you described.

I have to work now .,,, sad fact in life !!

Gone very quiet !!

It would be useful if you could update to the eepskye built using V5 of QTCreator. This is not automated, I've still to get it to also check for updates.
Go to the test versions thread and first download eepskye5.zip from 12-Dec-2020 19:53. To install you just copy the contents of the zip file to a suitable directory, keeping the directory structure.
The file erskyTxR223B1.zip includes an update to the .exe file.
I'll post an update to the eepskye.exe file that supports the TX18S in the next day or two.

OK ... tks Mike .... but might be some time before I get to it .... I have builders start to repair roof etc ... I have 3DE scanners and PC's giving me all sorts of trouble ... plus work !!

I've just posted a new test version (B2). I noticed that openTx uses slightly different settings for the colour display on the TX18S so I've copied them. The display image may now fit better.
Some of the main screens are updated and there is a "HiRes" test feature in the Telemetry popup. This is for a new custom display. Any settings you test are not currently saved on power off, it is experimental.

@MikeB, is the KingRadio TX18S fully supported in the erskyTxR223B5 build? I ask cuz this radio is currently selling for $90 after 40% discount using code QWINOUT-C https://QWinOut.com/collections/super-d ... rc-drone-1

There is a build that supports the TX18S. I don't have such a radio, so it was tested by someone else. As far as I know, it is working OK.

Hi Mike,
I got a TX18S and flash ErskyTX.It works well but has a problem that it has no sound.

No sound at all, or no voice?
What is the volume setting in the RADIO SETUP/AudioHaptic menu?
Set the Beeper to "Norm"
Have you put the voice files on the SD card?

Mike

Hi Mike,
No sound at all, or no voice?

No sound,no beep and no voice

What is the volume setting in the RADIO SETUP/AudioHaptic menu?
Set the Beeper to "Norm"

Yes,Set the Beeper to "Norm"

Have you put the voice files on the SD card?

I download the lastest SDcard.zip from Er9x and ErskyTx Home Page.

What is the volume setting?

On the main display, there is a volume display on the status bar at the bottom. Is the rectangle empty or (part) filled?

I don't have a TX18S. On the RADIO SETUP/AudioHaptic menu, there is a volume setting, 0 is no volume. There may also be a "Hardware volume" setting, if so, is it set to 0?

Mike

Hi Mike,
What is the volume setting?

On the main display, there is a volume display on the status bar at the bottom. Is the rectangle empty or (part) filled?

It is full(max).

I don't have a TX18S. On the RADIO SETUP/AudioHaptic menu, there is a volume setting, 0 is no volume. There may also be a "Hardware volume" setting, if so, is it set to 0?

The volume is the max 23

So I don't know where the problem is and how to adjust.
When I reflash back OpenTX the voice regain.

I'll need to look to see what, if any, differences there are in the openTx code.

Mike

What firmware, openTx and erskyTx, are you flashing (the filenames please)?

Please go to the MODELSETUP|VoiceAudio menu, edit a Voice Alert, go down to the bottom and select the filetype to "name", then go to the Voice file entry and press MENU LONG. This should bring up a list of files. If it says "No Files" then the SD card doesn't have the files on it in the correct place.

The openTX is 2.3.10 build in radio.The erskyTX is R223B5 build of TX18S and the file name is "tx18s_rom.bin".

After my confirmation,all voice files are in the correct place.
By the way,what kind of image file should I use? JPG or PNG? How big are the pixels? Where is the correct place of the files?

I've just posted a test version that may fix the problem.

For model images, currently you need a 24-bit colour image in .BMP format in the IMAGES directory on the SD card. Max. size 192 by 114.

Mike

Hi Mike,
Well done.The sound including voice and beep has come back.Thanks a lot.
