Hello,
Is it possible to use the new 3DR 915 telemetry set, with SiK 2.x firmware, to allow two ground stations? For instance MP on PC and DroidPlanner on Android.
Thoughts?

You need to be a member of diydrones to add comments!
I'm happy to share my setup, but I don't understand why you'd want two drones to be simultaneously connected to your GS. I'm not sure my setup would help you if this is your goal. Can you elaborate?

Yes, I have it working 100%. A three-node network with node 0 being the aircraft, 1 and 2 are my telemetry and laptop. Pretty convenient...and I'd almost forgotten about it!
So you are using the 2.x on a HM-TPR module based radio?
Could you please make a mini how-to, or send the firmware file?
Does 2.x firmware need bootloader update on HM-TRP modules with 1.9 SiK currently installed?
I'd like to set plane or copter to 0, ground station and antenna tracker to 1 and 2.
Thanks in advance!

Hello Adrian,
Yes, it works just fine. It has been a long time since I set it up so I can't really do a mini-how to, but you can find the documentation on it. You will need to set AT registers manually to get it working, but it's not that hard once you read about it.

Can i ask how you did this? I am currently trying the same thing but with the mission control as node 0 and two drones as 1 and 2.
cheers

Any luck with this Brit?

See the FW link at the bottom of this page.
no - and why would you do something like that ?
