Frsky compatibility

Mine in the rx setup screen has a button re init. and not Bind next to the fixed id.
I cleared the fixed id and still nothing. I wondering if I have a bad tx module.

Strange! Which transmitter are you using? Here is what it looks like on my Devo 7e screen. You can clearly see the BIND button there.

oops should have said that first:
I am using a Devo 8s

I bought 2 modules I will try the other one
Just a pita to solder

oh and tx power is stuck on default
thanks

You have to manualy delete fix ID (all numbers) to disable it. You should see BIND "button" then.

I was trying to range test earlier today. With distance of 300m, I set my Devo 7e tx power to 150mW. As expected, I got a solid connection. I turned down the tx power to lowest 100uW. To my surprise, I still have a connection at 300m. I understand Frsky receivers are known for good range, but I didn't expect 100uW power to cover 300m range. Next time, I'll try to range test at a much farther distance.

So this is 100% functional protocol?
Worth buying a cc2500 module and setting it up for my devo 7e to link with FrSky Receiver D4R-II

Which version did you use?

I should receive tmr a FrSky V8R7-II receiver ... Hope it will work too ...

I'm using D4R-II receiver.

Ok changed out the module and still nothing. I am getting power to module but it doesn't initialize.

Did you connect the reset pin to the TCK pin?

If you're talking about the Multi-Module connection, then yes. I've connected the MM's Reset pin to TCK pin on the Devo. For the MM, I've connected all pins except the 5V (pin 1) one.

[EDIT]
I'm using Devo 7e and have no problem with CC2500. However, I read that btoschi also has problem with CC2500 with Devo8s. Maybe it's a bug specific to that combination.

Hi

I managed to bind perfectly my devo 10 w/ MM with the FrSky V8R7-II receiver. I am uploading a video as tutorial. It can help someone in the future.

EDIT : with the video

In fact, it's working for both V8 (w/o telemetry) (FrSky-V8) or D (w/ telemetry) (FrSky)

I am uploading another video showing both procédures


EDIT :

So is the cc2500 module working ok with Devo 10 running nightly?

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for connecting the module to the Devo 10?

Is the telemetry working with this module?

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

I just reeived my D4R-II module. It's binding perfectly in D mode but the I got only 2 voltages in the telemetry channel. Is it normal ? No RRSI information for example ?

On the Devo8, Frsky uses the Devo display rather than the DSM one.
I only implemented:
Temp1,2
Volt1,2,3
RPM1
GPS

I'm not sure if I have the info on RSSI to be able to decode it. I'll take a look.

I don't know if it's related, but a Hobbyking user of the D4R-II wrote
"Great little receiver.
4 channel output, and if the jumper is used on CH3&CH4 it does output a 8 channel PPM stream plus a RSSI voltage signal on channel 2. RSSI voltage goes from 3,16V (full signal) to 0,18V (no signal).
Perfect for multi copters and for FPV copters.
This telemetry receiver uses A1 for internal receiver voltage and has an external A2 input for your own voltage sensor. "

Hi,

There is a new nice FrSky receiver "L9R" working in the "LR12" mode of the taranis ? Do you think it's possible to also implement it ?
Maybe you don't have such RX ?

Any news for the RSSI in the telemetry information ? (for my devo 10 at least)

Has anyone gotten the 8s to properly bind FrSky?? I see mostly 10 and 7 stuff.

I've connected my CC2500 through a multimodule as well as a direct connect (made a little adapter so I can switch back and forth just in case) but for whatever reason I cannot get the thing to bind to a brand new D4R-II.

Im getting no errors, the cc2500 is properly recognized, it just won't talk to the rx. Sadly I dont have a second frsky rx to test it on... or any other rc toy that uses the cc2500..

I've removed the fixed ID, tried both v8 and normal... my rx just never seems to receive a signal from the tx.. just stays in that constant both LEDs on mode that it starts in when you hold the button down.

Im on 4.0.1-92e1705

I checked actually code

And finally RSSI informartion is not retrived ((u32)pkt[5] ?) It's not completly sure that the sixth byte is the RSSI ?
