Hi all,
I just bought an FrSky Taranis for my quad copter and needed to get the Mavlink data up on the Taranis LCD telemetry display. So here is my solution using a Teensy3.1 as a converter between MavLink and the S.Port on FrSky X8R.
See attached file below...

Hi Thomas,for sure https://github.com/craftandtheory/FrSkyTelemetry
Hi Luis
I use your old script with 3.2.1 and 2.0.15 on taranis
i wonder if i can upgrade the taranis tx to the latest firmware and steel to be able to use your old lua script ?
or maybe that will screw all ?
thanks
No. It won't work with 2.1.x
better follow the new development being done here https://github.com/Clooney82/MavLink_FrSkySPort
Could someone please tell me what the telemetry rate requested is for attitude? Attitude not altitude,, just in case you eyesight is as bad as mine. Thanks
Anybody? The reason I ask is I am loosing attitude telemetry after a minute or so of flight. I had to cut the TX wire from the teesny for it to work with a GCS at the same time. I can adjusts the telemetry rates via mission planner for attitude. I'd like to know what would be out of the norm for that setting maybe that's my problem.
Thanks Clooney and everybody for working on this!!
A few months ago after updating to apm copter 3.3 from 3.2 my script acted up as soon as I connect via mavlink to my ground control station [ gcs] . I have open tx 2.0.13. My taranis would start verbalizing incorrect nonsense over and over. But only when I connected to a gcs otherwise it was fine. Was / is this a know issue that has been addressed with open tx 2.1 and this? https://github.com/Clooney82/MavLink_FrSkySPort/tree/s-c-l-v-rc-ope...
Sorry if this has been covered... I looked for about 1/2 but there are a LOT of pages on this tread. I've sort of been waiting for a few months for a solution.
Thanks!!!!!
2.1 works fine with the latest version of clooney82 .
So you have to have the right firmware for the teensy, the right config for Taranis and lua , the right sound files .. All together .
I find I can not compile this version. I admit i'm no expert here. But i open the MavLink_FrSkySPort.ino file and click verify I get this error:
FrSkySPortTelemetry:116: error: token "Â" is not valid in preprocessor expressions
#if defined USE_SINGLE_CELL_MONITOR ||Â defined USE_FLVSS_FAKE_SENSOR_DATA
^
exit status 1
token "Â" is not valid in preprocessor expressions
Clearly, this will be me missing something but if anyone can point me in the correct direction it would be appreciated
This must have been a bad char in the code, I retyped the line and it verified now. I still have an error
C:\Users\Kevin\Documents\GitHub\MavLink_FrSkySPort\MavLink_FrSkySPort\FrSkySPortTelemetry.ino:44:30: fatal error: FrSkySportSensor.h: No such file or directory
#include "FrSkySportSensor.h"
^
compilation terminated.
exit status 1
Error compiling.
But i should be able to research this
