Acceptable Spacing for Tranmitter PWM Values for Mode Settings

Posted by Philip Fretwell on August 8, 2011 at 9:22am

I am worried that the pwm values of each mode on channel 5 may be too close together.  This may be the cause of my hexa getting its knickers in a twist when changing modes.

 

The six values are 1081 - 1265 - 1490 - 1580 - 1690 - 1780

 

I don't want to blame the code it the fault is mine .....

 

Any comments please?

    Your radio may be misconfigured so that you are too close to a threshold. Use the PWM test to see and adjust your radio's end points to change them.

    I don't understand your concern.  It is very unlikely that those values are too close.  The jitter on typical transmitters is only 1 or 2 microseconds.  We have been using that sort of spacing "since the beginning" without issue.
