Hi Folks,
i found this at MK-Forum: Sexpander - A small Spektrum DX7 Channel Expander
I think ist is pretty neat, but needs code change.
Do you think it is possible to implement this at ardupilot?
And how would it be done best in terms of compatibility?
BTW: Is there any status update on the possibility of directly using spektrum satellites?
I read that it was possible with an extra board on APM1 but not on APM 2.X.
What du you think?

I've been using it for years - now it's just collecting dust.
Compatibility; once you do the mod, you can't use one of the channels on other models, than the ones you needed the mod for (it muxes al the data onto one channel)
It would work if the PPM decoding chip OF APM were flashed with proper firmware. With an extra board, I see no reason for it NOT to work on APM2 , (nor do I know what it would need extra board)
