New WLToys Protocol V977

Is there a hover debugging function, in deviation, for V977 6g mode like the original stock Tx has?

If i understand it properly, yes.

Hover debugging is ability to trim in 6 axis.

I believe there are a couple of errors in 11ch ini at link in my previous post.
Ch7 source should be "none".

Thanks Birdman.

I have another question. I want to order an NRF24l01 module to install in my Devo7e.

I have seen two types; one with an antenna and one without, here are the links;

or

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10x-NRF24L01-2-4GHz-A...2:g:XbgAAOSwv-NWVjfw

Will they both work? If yes, then which one is better?

Hi Denis,

Looks like they would both work.
Both have antenna.
First one has an amp and will give you more range.
Last one has antenna on pcb, no amp, less range.

I have posted my own ini in config thread.

edit: i use this one

Thanks Birdman, I have ordered the one from Banggood.

I installed the NRF24L01 module. Problem is when I turn on the devo7e, it says cyrf6936 module not found. When I press enter the message goes away and it boots fine. Can it work without this module or have I damaged the Tx?

Also, I installed the V977 model file. I can load it but there is no bind option next to Kn protocal bind page. How do I bind the V977? Sorry I am a newbie?

did you enable nrf module?

Bm

edit: and you might need latest nightly

are you using multimodule?

it would not work for me, i got same message

i added nrf without multimodule and it worked fine with latest nightly

make sure multimodule is "not" enabled, and cyrf6936 and nrf module "is" enabled

Bm

I only have the nrf module installed, I have enabled it. I believe the cyrf6936 module is the walkera module that comes already in the tx.

Before I installed the back cover, I connected the battery plug & turned it on & it turned on ok without any messages. After I screwed the back cover in is when the message started. So I don't know if the back cover pressed something and therefore short circuiting the stock cyrf6936 module?

Does v977 bind automatically or do I have to select a bind option? I have the latest nightly installed.

Hello i use a v977 on my devo10 without issue

The CYR6936 is the stock tuner of walkera transmitter unless you changed his wiring you are not suppose to activate it in hardware.ini (in stock configuration it's automatic)
For the binding KN protocol bind on each startup of the heli that why it's not a bind button but an init one, i can suggest you to specify an ident like 4001 for your transmitter in auto mode some time it do not bind without this parameter.

CYR6936 is enabled automatically if in original position, but it must still be "enabled".

I have "bind" option on my 8s

bind first time, then its automatic

Bm

my settings for devo8s

V931 binds without fixed id

[modules]
; there is no need to enable the cyrf6936 module unless
; it is wired to an alternate port. It is Enabled automatically otherwise
enable-cyrf6936=B12
has_pa-cyrf6936=1
enable-a7105=A14
has_pa-a7105=1
; enable-cc2500=None
; has_pa-cc2500=0
enable-nrf24l01=A13
has_pa-nrf24l01=1

Thanks Birdman and Sp@r0, I will try your suggestions.
I will get a magnifying glass and check if the solder points where I soldered the nrf24l01 module are shorting each other and causing the unable to detect the CYR6936 module message . When I was younger, in my twenties, I had very good eyesight and had no problem soldering in tiny spaces. Now at 41 it is a challenge to see very close. I will buy a soldering iron with a fine tip as my soldering iron isn't that good, it has a rather large tip which makes it a pain to solder small points.

Earlier on the devo7e had been saying it couldn't detect the NRF24l01 module. I had a loose connection which I soldered and the message went away so it must be detecting the NRF24l01 module but just not binding to the V977. Could it be because I don't have the Bind option? I only have the Init option which is strange.

I have ordered another NRF24l01 module and another Devo7e as a backup just in case.

did you select WLToys format?

No, I only selected the KN protocol. Do I need to select WLToys format? Also how do I get it to it?

tap on kn, it will bring up options

Thanks I will try it tomorrow as I will be back home tomorrow. I think there is some hope to get this working.

I stayed awake the whole of last night trying to get this working lol.

make sure "hardware.ini" and "tx.ini" are correct
if no hardware.ini, create it

Additional modules are listed in the modules section. In hardware.ini, it should already be there, with everything commented out. In tx.ini, you will have to add it. To do so, add the following text above the line that reads [calibrate1]:
[modules]
; there is no need to enable the cyrf6936 module unless
; it is wired to an alternate port. It is Enabled automatically otherwise
; enable-a7105 = A13
; has_pa-a7105 = 1
; enable-cc2500 = A14
; has_pa-cc2500 = 1
; enable-nrf24l01 = A14
; has_pa-nrf24l01 = 1
; enable-multimod = A13
Enabling modules
For each module you have added, find the line that says enable-???? where ???? is your module type, and uncomment it by removing the ; at the start of the line. Check the value on that line. If you connected the module CSN signal to TMS pin in your transmitter, the value should be A13. If you instead connected it to the TCK pin, the value should be set to A14.
If the module is being plugged into a multimodule, then the values are S1 for the A7105, S3 for the CC2500 and S402 for the NRF24L01.
If the module has a power amplifier, then you should also uncomment the has_pa-???? line for that module. The value will always be 1.
Note that your Devo transmitter comes with a CYRF6936 module built in. That one will be enabled automatically, and you don't want to enable the module here.

i did a couple of tests with my 8s

it did not seem to matter if cyrf module is enabled or not

same with wltoys format

Bm

I looked at my tx.ini and there is no module stuff in there, it is only in hardware.ini

and reads as follows:

[modules]
; there is no need to enable the cyrf6936 module unless
; it is wired to an alternate port. It is Enabled automatically otherwise
;enable-cyrf6936=B12
;has_pa-cyrf6936=1
enable-a7105=A14
has_pa-a7105=1
; enable-cc2500=None
; has_pa-cc2500=0
enable-nrf24l01=A13
has_pa-nrf24l01=1

so i have:
nrf on tms a13
7105 on tck a14
