Hi Melih

I apologize if this has been asked before and might be obvious enough to everone that no body asked but can I use this for two way GCS control of the UAV ?

(A.K.A control over telemetry )

Regards Johann

Hi Johann, yes, i'm planning to doing that. Because the transmitter sending the servo positions over digital RF module and we can read this values from PC(rs232) or any PPM source.  Search my blog posts, i remember some comments about that on another post.

Yes, you are right. On the subject of boosters, can they be set to a lower output power?

maybe you could add a buzzer to the receiver too, so in case its lost, there is a "beep beep"

Having it in a futaba form factor with my er9x and telemetry from my autopilot would be nice.

right now I use xbee inside the er9x and display data on er9x lcd screen.

Yes, Yesterday we visited the RF lab of a television station. They have million $ equipments and much more experience about RF and tested our equipments. Power/noise ratios was perfect, Output powers was 100% same as our design powers. Only problem was my logic, OpenLRS devices was configured on usage mode and it's mean transmitter working only %50 of time, but RF power meters measuring total energy and all values was half :(
I will configure it for full time tx mode and visit the lab again to capturing the output screens of power meters.

LRS(one way radio) firmware ready for first tests, i'm working on bidirectional telemetry firmware now.

- Antennas ordered,
- Futaba and Jr cases ordered(for one way RC users)
- 7w booster chips arrived(20 units)
- Gyro and Accelerometer chips arrived (for direct imu)
details coming...
