How About Open Source?

Yesterday HK released a video about their new 433Mhz LRS modules.

And i shocked. Because it is unauthorized copy of my OpenLRS !

OpenLRS is an Opensource RC and i'm the developer of that system.

Stop the video on …

OpenBee Telemetry Traffic Test

Posted on October 17, 2012 at 5:55am 5 Comments

Hi everyone, 

Another blog post about OpenBee :)



Everyone asking about telemetry speed but i didnt answer this questions because of nature of RF telemetry.

RF telemetry speed depends more than one thing. I just take this video for showing unidirectional communication limits. 

The limit depends FSK modulation frequency and RF bandwidth. We can…

Hi Guys,

OpenBee modules ready and in stocks today. I just tested Dennis Frie's spectrum analyzer firmware and software over OpenBee. It is working perfect!. The original code a part of OpenLRS RC Receivers and OpenBee using same RF module and pinouts with OpenLRS project, this is why the code working without any problem. :)

In this…

Hi Guys,



Today OpenBee boards arrived from PCB factory and i just tested them and working fine :)



It is including Arduino 16Mhz ProMini bootloader and you can upload the code directly over Arduino with USB to Xbee Adapters. No need an external FTDI board or something.…

hello Melih,
My problem with Endurance-RC and their PCTx is that they didn't tell me the system would not work on my Futaba 6ex 2.4ghz radio, until AFTER I had bought it!

Are there some radios that your system will not work on?
At 10:46pm on January 4, 2010, Melih Karakelle said…
Hi,

I'm using 6ex too :) I'm selling DT-3K headtracker since 8 months, and this device using same method for sending head tracking signals. No problem with all futaba, hitec, etc. I have happy 100+ customer :)

Melih, Can I use new 420 camera w 2.4ghz tx with OSD? is there video in/out pads?
And I would like to write code for USBtoPPM for Spectrum/JR head tracker.

Hi Mark,
Yes you can use it with OSD, camera have + - and video pads on bottomside.
Sorry about Compufly, offer finished now and i sent the products to winners. New products will on stocks in 1 week.

Hi Melih, I'm interested in getting a few units of USBtoPPM for Futaba. Wondering if you have C# code as example as I want to integrate it into my C# application.

Melih bey merhaba,

Forumu 1 haftadır takip ediyorum. Sizin epey bilgili olduğunuzu farkettim. Size birkaç sorum olacak. Benim trexc 700 bir helikopterim var. Bu helikopteri önceden belirlediğim bir profili uçurmak yada sinyal kesildiğinde en uygun yere indirmek gibi aklımda bir kaç proje var. Bu fikirlerden birinide tez olarak sunmayı düşünüyorum. Bunun için arduino gibi bir kart, sensörler ve gps modul gibi parçalara ihtiyacım var. Sonrasında da C ile biraz uğraşıp hazır kodlar üzerinde modifikasyonlar yapacağım gibi gözüküyor.

Size sorum ise bu kontrol kartın hangisi bana uygundur ve aparatları ile ilgili uygun diyata nereden alabilirim? Görüşmek üzere.
