I am powering 5 Volts of power to a MultiWii Pro Flight Control Board, an 8 channel Receiver, LED's, GPS, many Telemetry Sensors, Servos, 3DR Radio Telem...

Re: Direct Frsky telemtry data from MW FC

Hi izeman,
With the values changing so quickly, maybe they are not real data values.
It maybe the sensor data is not getting through.
You may find help on the OpenRCforums being you are using er9x on your Turnigy9x.
