This is my DEVO 7E with...

STM32F103RET6 512kB Flash, 64kB RAM 64pin package
SST25VF032B 4MB SPI NOR Flash

I am going to add a 915Mhz 3DR radio inside the devo7e and trying to add the mavlink protocol to talk it and show some useful informations on the LCD.

I am interested and happy to do same with my devo 7e.....

Could you explain the benefits of the new mcu and what firmware should we run will it stay compatible? Will there be builds for it to use the CPU?
Can you also hook up the 2 extra analog pots ? See here: www.deviationtx.com/forum/6-general-disc...evo7e?start=40#34661

Instead of 3dm link, have you seen; UltraLRS link, also quite interesting, very good range is cheap, low frequency uhf for better penetration objects and can transmit control and telemetry signal.

Wow, the integrated 3DR w/ mavlink sounds amazing.

I am in no way trying to downplay your existing goals, they sound awesome and are definitely already very ambitious; but just imagine if you could work in a USB output to display the received mavlink data on a USB-OTG phone /tablet (think dji style). The HW already exists...

Edit: or skip the USB output and do it via BT!!

Cool, but why FreeRTOS? After evaluating them, I settled on ChibiOS, as I like that it has three flavors (full-blown RTOS, minimal RTOS, and no RTOS) that run on top of the same hardware abstraction layer.

And more importantly, are you planning on trying to port the devo code to FreeRTOS? I've thought about that, but figure it probably won't fit on a stock 7E, so won't make it into Deviation. But that would just add fuel to the "we should fork Deviation to 7e and non-7e forks" fire.

Do not ask me questions via PM. Ask in the forums, where I'll answer if I can.
