What does "AHI" stand for ? A google showed no obvious answer, so I suggest possibly expanding this definition in Config.h

Code: Select all

//#define FULLAHI                   // Enable to display a slightly longer AHI line

I just updated to the latest Cleanflight firmware and now it keeps disarming after 5 sec when the throttle is at the lowest position. Is this a new feature?? It is !

i picked 5 positions because the usual range of 1000 to 2000 divides nicely into 5 equal bands with a center.

I don't think he proposed any. I suggested the same be done in BF, however. TC appeared to say "sounds good, as long as someone else codes it". So it looks to me like everyone thinks is a great idea but no one has time time/capability to implement it. But maybe I misread something… -=dave

What is the need exactly - I ask because I don't really have the need for this functionality and I'm programming and messing with OSD and FC all the time!

Is the current thinking that we resume OSD functionality with a power-cycle, or will the OSD continue to monitor the UART stream for it's "enable" bit, but otherwise just staying out of the way ?

Conclusion: Do NOT try autotune on this setup. I am now three expensive engines poorer because of it... An FC should not be able to fry a motor if esc/motors are dimensioned correctly. I agree. If the signals going to the ESC are causing the motors to fry, then the ESC is at fault; it shouldn't all...

Agreed, but somewhat idealistic. And we like it that way But seriously. I've already witnessed two instances where outdated documentation caused grief for configuring CF (I was one of them).

Dominic- Have you tried any OSD that supports virtual amp gauge while running on your implementation of softserial ?

I'm considering running MWOSD off a softserial connection to the Flip32 (available in Cleanflight to a minimum of 9600, and currently up to a maximum of 19200, but I'm unsure of how stable the 19200 rate might be). How greatly could this hamper the performance of MWOSD ? 9600, while quite slow from ...
