Hello pilots,
I am developing a new FPV application D‑Tracer for Android. It is designed to work with transmitters running EdgeTX/OpenTX firmware and the ELRS protocol.
App functionality includes:
Real‑time telemetry: display of RSSI, voltage, speed, altitude, coordinates, and other...
I was watching a video of engine starts recently and I thought it would be cool to have a scale looking engine start for my Dumod.
I have a Taranis X9D+ and would like to figure out how to program it so that the left motor turns very slowly for a bit, then kicks faster a couple times like each...
I recently picked up a Jumper t18 lite from grayson hobby to replace my aging dx6. I am still learning OpenTX but have a few questions I’m hoping more experienced Jumper owners can help me with. For reference, the t18 lite uses the jumper 4in1.
1. Initially, when flying my umx pt17 that I used...
So how does an enterprising young pilot practice aerobatic pattern sequences when there is nobody around to remind them what comes next? Turn to the power of OpenTX! :D
With this set of OpenTX LUA and WAV files installed, every time the SH switch is pulled the radio calls out the next move in...
Wha?? :unsure:
Lemme break it down:
OpenTX - the software that runs FrSky on and some other radios
Pattern - a series of aerobatic maneuvers performed in a specific order for a competition
Sequence Caller - an assistant who stands near the pilot and calls out the next maneuver in the sequence...
SHARED!
Upgraded to a Taranis, so I no longer need my Turnigy 9x. OpenTX 2.1.7 installed, 10-pin header inside the case (soldered to the board) for firmware updates. White display backlight installed. Includes 8xAA holder and 1500mAh LiFe transmitter battery. 8ch receiver included.

The SxR (S6R & S8R) receivers provide stabilization, level, knife edge and hover flight modes.
Setup instructions and tips for the SxR have been gathered from a number of different sources and put in a blog post.
Check out the blog post and video.

In RF D16 mode 16 channels are transmitted if the channel range is set to 1-16. The bind option determines if the servo pins are mapped to the first 8 channels or the second 8 channels. Further it also determines if telemetry from the receiver is turned on or off.
This is useful when using two...
This script mimics the start sequence for quad racing. Pilots get their quads ready on the start line. They then return to their seats and get ready to race. The race official tells them to arm their quads and then after a random delay sounds a start buzzer.
To use the script:
The pilot...
I have published an OpenTX Manual with help from the developers and community members. The manual is accessible by going to RCdiy.ca and clicking the OpenTX Manual link on the top menu bar. http://rcdiy.ca
There are a number of ways to use this manual using the OpenTX Manual links on the right...
I have published two new videos and documentation on setting up OpenTX to display Head Speed.

Hello there!
This is like 7th place I post this in. I have read every single google link with related keywords. No answer. At this point im exhausted, and have'nt even tasted RC hobby yet.
So two weeks ago I received my QX7 Taranis. I had also ordered a XSR-E receiver for it.
As soon as I got...
I have published a new video and documentation on setting up the FrSKY RPM sensor in OpenTX. This is a precursor to the video on a lua script that calculates head speed. The script has been contributed by Attitude RC.

This GPS script was published last year. A viewer requested that the script be updated to use an optional second GPS sensors. One on the aircraft and another in the transmitter. This allows a pilot who does cross...

OpenTX allows the use of two GPS sensors. So by adding a GPS to the transmitter’s module bay one can track both the pilot’s and the model’s position.
This video and post will be followed by videos and post on...
