Unlimited channels with CPPM connected receivers
Posted: Thu Jun 28, 2012 7:01 am
Not sure what the CPPM signal actually looks like, I'm assuming it's some sort of tag that's sent within a frame from the satellite to the control board. This idea is 2 parts:
- Modified code on the Turnigy 9x (er9x)
- Modified code on MW
The modified code on the 9x would provide for an LCD menu with additional channels that were toggles (probably cumbersome while flying unless some of the buttons are technically inactive for the LCD unless you're in a menu). Or, hardware permitting, the physical addition of switches that would control the channels.
The modified CPPM code on MW would decode these additional channels and be able to use them for different features.
There's a list of at least 8 or 9 modes that can be enabled/disabled. But we only have AUX1-AUX4 right now. So you can pick and choose 4 individual modes, or combinations of them. But you cannot have the ability to toggle all of the modes that are available with more "channels".
