you use the gui and assign tasks to the aux ports you want, for instance if you want to engage the barometer with aux 4 you would place a check in aux4 box for baro in the gui, and then save changes.

you also have to obviously have aux 3 and 4 plugged into the FC board from your RX (and also obviously your TX/RX has to have aux3 and 4 capability)

when watching the gui, can you see your aux3 and aux4 values move when you change settings?

then you either do not have them connected correctly, or your TX/RX is not compatible. its very easy to have your connections backwards by flipping the connector around. generally its signal/power/ground and if you have it flipped its ground/power/signal which will not work.

So what does that mean??

do I

//#define AUX3PIN 1 // unused
//#define AUX4PIN 3 // unused

will that make Ax3 and AX4 work??
