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...

My fault was, that I didn't connect the ground of the lipo. In operation, the Teensy gets lipo ground from receiver.
I wanted to setup the Teensy without connecting everything. If you want to do this, you need to add ground from the lipo to the Teensy. Otherwise just setup while everything is connected to the copter.
Hello, please anyone have .hex file for teensy 3.1 without current and voltage readings for opentx 2.1? I use Frsky FLVSS and FCS-150A.
Here's the 2015-09-29 code compiled using an external FAS and FLVSS
MavLink_FrSkySPort-FAS-FLVSS-2015-09-29.hex
MavLink_FrSkySPort-FAS-FLVSS-2015-09-29.hex
Hi Jakub,
is it possible to use the Teensy-Board with other S.PORT sensors at the same time?
here you go
Hi Mark, where can I found your code for teensy without current and voltage readings? I'm interested too!
Teensy on the Ground Side.
Has anyone ever tried doing Mavlink to S Port conversion on the ground side with a Teensy. I ask as I want to use Flip Flaps ULRS that has a Long Range 433 RC link and a Mavlink serial connection on the ground side. It should be possible to convert it to S Port on the ground without any issues using a Teensy but where would I feed this into the Taranis? Or could I just use this and forget the Taranis Telemetry screen?
@ Marc
Yes, I do a ground side with a Teensy 3.1, I use OrangeRx TX and BT module inside it.
Stupid question. I understand how you connect the serial (tx/rx) to the Teensy from the OrangeRx on the ground side, but where does the S Port output of the Teensy connect to in the Taranis? Sorry I am not getting that part. On the UAV side it plugs into the S Port.
And I presume it can use all the same LUA scripts without modification.
