Cleanflight PPM *output* on a servo connector?

Post by edsimmons3 »

Hi Cleanflight folk :)

I'm getting a big sky-camera-tractor going with the latest cleanflight release and would like to know if it is possible to get PPM sum *output* from a servo pin on my flight controller? I would like this to simplify the connections to my multi-axis gimbal and camera controls. Many channels could be output neatly and be compatible with many gimbals in this way. Since the gimbal is removable from this craft for transport, an easy (low pin count) multipin connector would be nice and PPM sum would remove the need for many PWM channels being sent to the gimbal & camera controls.

I also have need for a few servo outputs from the flight controller for retracts etc. The radio is sbus so I have no PPM signal available to connect directly, so I'd like this to be configured on the FC.

I think from the looks of the forum threads that CAMSTAB allows me to get two PWM servo outputs fed through from AUX channels, is it possible to make more of these controlled by AUX channels?

Thanks,
Ed

Can you please share your all hardware details here?
How i can make its control and which MCU i should use?
What about its motors and the motor drivers?
